You'll Have to Swing It (Mr. Paganini)

The concert was over in Deutschland 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
Mister Paganini, please play my rhapsody
And if you cannot play it, won't you sing it
And if you can't sing it, you simply have to

(scatting)
Listen Paginini
We breathlessly await
Your masterful baton
Go on and swing it
And if you can't swing it
You simply have to
(scatting)
We've heard your repertoire
And at the final bar
We greeted you with round applause
But what a great ovation
Your interpretation of
I never cared much for moonlit skies
I never blinked back at fireflies
Would do
So Paganini
Don't you be a meany
What have you up your sleeve
Come on and spring it
And if you can't spring it
You simply have to
(scatting)
Listen Paginini
Please play my rhapsody
And if you cannot play it
Won't you sing it
If the boys are bopping
Ain't no need to stopping
(scatting)
Listen Paginini
We breathlessly await
Your masterful baton
Go on and swing it
If the boys are bopping
Ain't no need to stopping
(scatting)
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 Paginini
Now don't you be a meany
What have you up your sleeve
Come on and spring it
And if you can't spring it
You simply have to swing it
