Yardbird Lyrics

Verse I ------- What is the Musical topic, of the Day? Bebop so the critic's say, well that was ok! Who were the originators, do you know? Yardbird and Dizzy tell me, I think it's quite so. Chorus ------ Now I'm just holding thumbs (?) like, Toscaninni and La Cost (?) Well, as long as I'm hip to it, I think I'm hipper to the how, explain it to the folks...

Verse II -------- Bebop my friends was just a whole lotta fun! You could take any old riff, and make a real long run.
