charles mingus - be bopper lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
he’s got his beret on
his glasses are trimmed in gold
he’s got a bowtie and it’s crazy
he’s a bebopper to his soul

[verse 2]
i’m told, he knows the latest riffs
no matter the hour he’s called
he spends all his time down at birdland
he’s a bebopper to his soul

[chorus]
when he’s got eyes, he satisfies
“charlie parker’s the bird, bellsman!”
language like this
hasn’t been heard

so he’s misunderstood
poor guy!
so when he comes your way
remember what you’ve been told

he’ll hold out his hand and say, “baby!”
he’s a bebopper to his soul
[bridge]
he’s got his beret on
glasses are trimmed in gold
oooohh ba+ba+da+ba+da+ba ooh+bu+da
he’s a bopper to his soul

and he knows the latest riffs
no matter the hour he’s called
oooohh ba+ba+dii+diiuu+da
a bebopper to his soul

[chorus]
when he’s got eyes, he satisfies
“charlie parker’s the bird, bellsman!”
language like this
hasn’t been heard

so he’s misunderstood, poor guy!
so when he comes your way
remember what you’ve been told
he’ll hold out his hand and say, “baby!”

the bebopper to his soul
bebopper to his soul
