Ran to Penn Station and mad my train | |
Immediately fell asleep until I heard | |
The conductor say: "Next stop | |
Where-it's-Atsville." | |
Sunlight on the Hudson an amber glow | |
Like "Crepuscule with Nellie" dialed | |
Down low | |
When I reached my stop | |
The platform sign said: "Scatsville." | |
I said: "Wait!" and I turned around | |
But the doors where closed and the train | |
Was gone | |
And I though: "This ain't | |
Where-I-hang-my-Hatsville." | |
And the question I asked of each passerby | |
Was met with the same singsong reply: | |
"Jack, you are now in Scatsville." | |
It's the language of madmen | |
When you talk through your hat | |
My Eleventh Commandment's: | |
"Thou Shalt Not Scat!" | |
Mr. Feather sighed and he seemed | |
Depressed | |
When I complained of scat on my | |
Blindfold Test | |
So how | |
How'd I get to Scatsville? | |
Live every saxophonist who play bop | |
It's a little habit that hard to stop | |
One day you find yourself in Scatsville | |
With all the cats in Scatsville |
