american quartet (vocal group) – that syncopated boogie boo lyrics
[verse 1]
a melody is like a ghost
that sneaks around from post to post
a+humming, i’m coming, coming
(i hear his laughter)
in the stilly night he sneaks
into your very brain and shrieks
“i want you, come on, i’ll haunt you”
(what is he after?)
“i’m a musical mephisto, i’m another monte christo
all this ragtime world belongs to me
see!”
[chorus]
oh, that syncopated boogie boo (boogie boo, boogie boo)
he’s after me (after me, after me)
he’s after you, get away, get away, get away
he’ll try to tie you with a music chord (music chord, music chord)
and then, oh, lord, he’ll yell with glee
“come along with me, learn my melody, that’s your penalty”
when the shades of night begin to fall (let ‘em fall, let ‘em fall)
you’ll hear him call (hear him call, hear him call)
to one and all, “hum a tune, hum a tune, hum a tune”
that’s (what’s that, what’s that) him rumbling
that’s (what’s that, what’s that) him stumbling
hear (i hear, i hear) him grumbling
hear (i hear, i hear) him mumbling
“i’m that syncopated boogie boo”
[verse 2]
this boogie boo does not pay rent
he sleeps in some old instrument
a+groaning, a+moaning, moaning
(tease him, i dare you)
you never know when he is near
until he whispers in your ear
“i’ll get you, be glad i met you”
(don’t let him scare you)
“other ghosts are melancholy, follow me, i’ll make you jolly
i’m the ghost that always make you hum
come!”
[chorus]
oh, that syncopated boogie boo (boogie boo, boogie boo)
he’s after me (after me, after me)
he’s after you, get away, get away, get away
he’ll try to tie you with a music chord (music chord, music chord)
and then, oh, lord, he’ll yell with glee
“come along with me, learn my melody, that’s your penalty”
when the shades of night begin to fall (let ‘em fall, let ‘em fall)
you’ll hear him call (hear him call, hear him call)
to one and all, “hum a tune, hum a tune, hum a tune”
that’s (what’s that, what’s that) him rumbling
that’s (what’s that, what’s that) him stumbling
hear (i hear, i hear) him grumbling
hear (i hear, i hear) him mumbling
“i’m that syncopated boogie boo”
get away
get away
can’t you hear him?
oh, that syncopated boogie boo (boogie boo, boogie boo)
he’s after me (after me, after me)
he’s after you, get away, get away, get away
he’ll try to tie you with a music chord (music chord, music chord)
and then, oh, lord, he’ll yell with glee
“come along with me, learn my melody, that’s your penalty”
when the shades of night begin to fall (let ‘em fall, let ‘em fall)
you’ll hear him call (hear him call, hear him call)
to one and all, “hum a tune, hum a tune, hum a tune”
that’s (what’s that, what’s that) him rumbling
that’s (what’s that, what’s that) him stumbling
hear (i hear, i hear) him grumbling
hear (i hear, i hear) him mumbling
“i’m that syncopated boogie boo” (boogie boo, boogie boo)
boo!
