Текст Ella Fitzgerald – The Dipsy Doodle

The Dipsy Doodle’s the thing to beware
The Dipsy Doodle will get in your hair
And if it gets you, it couldn’t be worse
The things you say will come out in reverse

The Dipsy Doodle is easy to find
You know it’s always in back of your mind
You never know it until it’s too late
And then you’re in such a terrible state
Like «The moon jumped over the cow, hey diddle»
That’s the way the Dipsy Doodle works

When you think that you’re crazy
You’re a victim of the Dipsy Doodle
But it’s not your mind that’s hazy
It’s your tongue that’s at fault, not your noodle

scat

The Dip-dip-dip-dip-dipsy Doodle
You’ll think you’re crazy, the things that you’ll say
Like «Rhythm got I and hot am I»
That’s the way the Dipsy Doodle works
