Lyric

Her shoes tap dots on the floor

Lipstick red, hair set high

She slips right into the frame

And wink-wink, I know why

Clarinet turns like a grin

Piano ticks a bright reply

She folds the room in half

With a baby-blue sigh

Ooh, the curtain shakes

Ooh, the crowd leans in

She spins one little spark

Then starts that grin

Scat girl on the silver screen

Scat girl, scat girl

Twirl me in your movie dream

Swing it, baby

Silver screen swing parade

Silver screen, hey

She makes the whole place sway

Oh, ba-da, ba-da

She tosses pearls at the night

Then laughs at the painted moon

Brass boys catch her name

And blow it back in tune

One hand on the rimshot beat

One eye on the velvet row

She says, "Come close, sweetheart"

Then scat-scat, off we go

Ooh, the spotlight bends

Ooh, it wants her near

She hums a little twist

And pulls us here

Scat girl on the silver screen

Scat girl, scat girl

Twirl me in your movie dream

Swing it, baby

Silver screen swing parade

Silver screen, hey

She makes the whole place sway

Oh, ba-da, ba-da

Now the band goes soft

And she steps down slow

Just a ribbon of light

And a bright white glow

Then the brass come back

Like a smiling train

She tips her hat to the frame

And scatters rain

Scat girl on the silver screen

Scat girl, scat girl

Twirl me in your movie dream

Swing it, baby

Silver screen swing parade

Silver screen, hey

She makes the whole place sway

Oh, ba-da, ba-da
