lirik lagu ella fitzgerald - mr. paganini (live)
>
(thank you…. i thank you)
the concert was over in carnegie hall
the maestro took bow after bow
he said, “my dear friends i have given my all
i’m sorry, it’s all over now”
when from the balcony way up high
there suddenly came a mournful cry
(mournful?)
“mr. paganini, please play my rhapsody
and if you cannot play it, won’t you sing it?
and if you can’t sing it, you’ll simply have to…
(scatting)”
“mr. paganini, we breathlessly await
your masterful baton, go on and sling it
and if you can’t sling it, you’ll simply have to…
(scatting)”
“we heard your repertoire and at the final bar
we greeted you with a round applause
but what a great ovation, your interpretation…
of “i never carеd much for moonlit skies
i never blinkеd back at fireflies” would do
“so paganini, don’t you be a meanie
what have you up your sleeve? go on and spring it
and if you can’t spring it, you’ll simply have to…
(scatting)”
“listen paganini, please play my rhapsody
and if you cannot play it, won’t you sing it?
if the boys are bopping ain’t no need in stopping…
(scatting)”
“listen paganini, now don’t you be a meanie
what have you up your sleeve? come on and spring it
and if you don’t spring it, that means you have to”
if the boys are bopping ain’t no need in stopping
(scatting)”
“we’ve heard your repertoire and at the final bar
we greeted you, we greeted you with round applause
but what a great ovation, your interpretation…
(scatting)
“listen paganini, now don’t you be a meanie
what have you up your sleeve? come on and spring it
and if you can’t spring it, you simply have to swing it”
