Ability To Swing

Everybodys thinking
thinking pretty hard
Everybodys thinkin
about singin from the heart
If you want my opinion
it doesnt mean a thing
if you havent got that ability to swing
The ability to swing
Everybody workin
workin pretty hard
Everbody workin
at singin from the heart
If you want my opinion
it isnt worth a bean
if you havent got that
ability to swing
The ability to swing
Dreams, take them away
Got it alone
Honey, Rome wasnt built in a day
But, now its a ruin
The joke has worn thin
And it isnt cool to abuse the ability to swing
Oh no!
Everbody talking
talkin pretty loud
Everbody lookin
to stand out from the crowd
Gonna break it to you bucko
It isnt worth a bean
if you aint in possession
of the ability to swing
The ability to swing
Friends send them away
Go it alone honey, Rome wasnt built in a day
Now its a ruin
The joke has worn thin
And it isnt cool to abuse
the ability to swing
SCAT.. .
But, each beat take me deeper under
Each beat sends me more to sleep
Heart melts ice and heart spells danger
Dont hold your breath boy, cause it
dont come cheap, no
Everybody lookin
lookin pretty hard
Everybody lookin for a meaning in my art
Gonna give it to you straight boy
It isnt worth a bean
if you havent got that ability to swing
The ability to swing
Yeah, the ability to swing
The ability to swing
The ability, the ability
The ability to swing
The ability to swing
The ability to swing
Gonna give it to you straight
Boy, it isnt worth a bean
if you havent got that ability to swing
The ability to swing
The ability to swing
The ability to swing
Oooh
The ability to swing
The ability to swing
