kathleen radigan - i swore off jazz lyrics
the tightrope walkers are so neat
they had such balance in the feet until
i saw one getting mad
she took her husband by the scruff of his neck
he was just a tiger cub
and said, you see, i’m sad
and all the pretty girls don’t understand
i’m falling off the edge of god’s left hand
the ballerinas are an often underestimated
force of nature
like clouds of the land
and evolution’s on it’s toes
i never saw such grace
it grows
like castles shooting out of sand
but no one seems to say “you are so lovely”
to ballerinas and sister, the monkey
so i swore off jazz
so i swore off jazz
so i swore of ja-ha-ha-ha-ah-ha-ha-az
when light is scarce and you’re afraid, remember
you cannot spark a room with just an ember
my best friend, mary megdalene
forgiven for a life of sin
and einstein’s relatively sure
the greatest humans had not great obedeience
but rather, they did what n-body’s done before
so gather all your lipstick and your laughter
and shout “i’m here” into the highest rafter
though i swore off jazz
though i swore off jazz
though i swore off ja-ha-ha-ha-ah-ha-ha-az
cuz jazz is brave
and jazz is bold as a living
i cannot love a world so unforgiving
shup-ba-ba shup-ba-ba-ba
ja-aaaz
jaaazz
doo, doo, doo da doo.
