Tom, Tom the Piper's Son (From Film: Presenting Lily Mars) |
| It was going pop |
| And it couldn’t stop |
| Now it’s number one, |
| Thanks to Tom the piper’s Son. |
| Tom, Tom, the piper’s Son |
| Stole a tune and away he run |
| And away run he With that melody |
| Tom was hot, the tune was sweet |
| But he revamped it with a new off-beat |
| And the classic thing, |
| Got a shot of swing |
| Mr. Brahms cried och! |
| So did Mozart and Bach |
| And to hear them rave |
| Paginini tumbled over in his grave |
| And now that tune, that no one played |
| Has stepped right up and hit the hit parade |
| It was growing pop |
| And it couldn’t, STOP! |
| Now it’s number one thanks to Tom the piper’s son. |
| Chorus with swing ;) |
| Tom was hot, the tune was sweet |
| But he vamped it with a boogie beat |
| And the classic thing, |
| Got a shot of swing |
| Beethoven turned gray |
| So did Debussy and Bose |
| It was such a stew |
| Tchaikovsky said «I'm gonna sue!» |
| And now that tune, that no one played |
| Has stepped right up and hit the hit parade |
| It was growing pop and it couldn’t, stop… |
| Now it’s number one thanks to Tom the piper’s son. |
| Ev’ry Little Movement |
| Ev’ry little movement, |
| Has a meaning of it’s own |
| Ev’ry thought and feeling, |
| By some posture can be shown. |
| And ev’ry love thought |
| That comes a stealing |
| All your being Must be revealing |
| All it’s sweetness In some appealing little gesture |
| All of it’s own. |
