Lyric

The saxophone hums, a winking refrain

Drums tap a rhythm like a soft falling rain

Bassline strolling in a low-slung strut

Fingers snapping, world locked in a rut

Shoo-bee-doo-wop, a vocal cascade

Each note a flirt, in the cool it parades

The city at midnight, alive with a glow

In the sway of the groove, let the feelings flow

Oh, snap it and sway it, let’s take it away

The night is our canvas, let jazz have its say

Scat me a story, bebop me a rhyme

In sleek sophistication, we’re stealing time

Off the sax comes a sultry reply

Teasing the moonlight, hanging up high

Drums take a tumble, a rimshot tease

The air’s electric; it’s a jazzy breeze

Skiddly-woo-wow, let’s twist and twine

Vocals and sax in a shimmering line

Bass keeps it steady, oh it knows the way

Through the heart of the night 'til the break of the day

Oh, snap it and sway it, let’s take it away

The night is our canvas, let jazz have its say

Scat me a story, bebop me a rhyme

In sleek sophistication, we’re stealing time
