Slap That Bass Songtext

von Crazy For You (Musical)

[Bobby]
Zoom - zoom, zoom - zoom,
The world is in a mess.
With politics and taxes
And people grinding axes,
There's no happiness
Zoom - zoom, zoom - zoom,
Rhythm lead your ace!
The future doesn't fret me
If I can only get me
Someone to slap that bass

[Pete]
Happiness is not a riddle
When I'm list'ning to that big bass fiddle.

[Bobby]
Slap that bass -

[Patsy]
Slap it till it's dizzy.

[Bobby]
Slap that bass -

[Tess]
Keep the rhythm busy.

[Tess & Patsy]
Zoom, zoom, zoom -
Misery - You got to go.

[Bobby]
Slap that bass -

[Tess, Patsy, Wyatt & Jimmy]
Use it like a tonic.

[Bobby]
Slap that bass -

[The Company]
Keep your Philharmonic
Zoom, zoom, zoom -
And the milk and honey will flow!

[Sam & Mingo]
Dictators would be better off
If they zoom-zoomed now and then;

[Pete]
Today you can see that the happiest of men

[The Company]
All got rhythm.

[Tess & Patsy]
In which case,
If you want to bubble -

[Bobby]
Slap that bass;
Slap away your trouble.

[The Company]
Learn to zoom, zoom, zoom -
Slap that bass!
Dictators would be better off
If they zoom-zoomed now and then
Today you can see that the happiest men
All got rhythm
All got rhythm
In which case if you want to bubble
Slap that bass
Slap away your trouble
Learn to zoom zoom zoom
Slap that bass!!
