bobby darin & johnny mercer - bob white lyrics
bobby:
just listen to the bob white
he never could sing right
johnny:
you should hip him to the latest sound
and the talk that’s goin’ ’round
bobby:
well, i was talkin’ to the parakeet
and he said, “man, now about that beat?”
johnny:
how about that beat?
bobby:
hey, bob white
ain’t ya gonna swing tonight?
johnny:
several people heard the albatross
bobby:
yes
johnny:
whisper robert is on the sauce
bobby:
i know for a fact he’s on the wagon
johnny:
bob white nothing but a neophyte
bobby:
john, what does that word mean?
johnny:
amateur!
bobby:
even the pheasant
found it unpleasant
hearin’ you hit that flat note
johnny:
whereas the sparrow
froze to his marrow
when he heard that note
bobby:
the opinion of the tufted grouse
is you’ll play to an empty house
johnny:
could happen to anybody!
bobby:
sure could
both:
get up off that pad
shape up make it, dad
bob white you gotta sing it out tonight
johnny:
take a letter to the meadow lark
in reply to his rude remark
bobby:
well, the mails must go through
johnny:
bob white invites you to a bash tonight
bobby:
my tux isn’t even pressed!
take a wire to the nightingale
tell him bob ain’t begun to wail
bob white’s gonna put him down for spite
johnny:
circulate the word!
call up the catbird
tell that old fat bird
he’s gonna sing a storm up
bobby:
hip the canary
it’ll be scary
after the warm up
johnny:
man, he’s even gonna gas the goose
he’ll be looser than dr. seuss
bobby:
wait a minute, john, do i detect a note of meaning that he’s gonna be right in tune?
johnny:
man, i’m tellin’ ya… he’s gonna be on the moon!
bobby:
i see
both:
bob white he’s gonna ball it up tonight
johnny:
oh, he’s in there
bobby:
ah, he whistles pretty
johnny:
yeah, like a bird!
bobby:
what?!
johnny:
hear the wire from the albatross
bobby:
sounds urgent!
johnny:
it reads robert is still the boss
bobby:
well, thank you very much, folks
johnny:
bob white he was in the grove tonight
bobby:
i quote directly from the whoopin’ crane
he says, “man it was like insane.”
johnny:
he made it plain
bobby:
bob white reelin’ for a groovy fight
i thought i had him dead in the third round
johnny:
hey, old papa redbird
who is the head bird
says you were in there swingin’
bobby:
he was tryin’
even a jackdaw
flew out the back door
buckin’ and wingin’
johnny:
you instigated such a swingin’ gig
that all them quadrupeds wanna dig
bobby:
here, here, you mean…
johnny:
here come the moose and elk!
bobby:
there goes lawrence welk!
both:
bob white! bob white! bob white!
you really sang it out tonight!
bobby:
ah, it’s for the birds
