Lyrics

[Verse 1]

This is just a little samba

Built up on a single note

Other notes are bound to follow, but the route is still that note

Now this new one is a consequence of the one we just went through

As I'm bound to be the unavoidable consequence of you

[Verse 2]

There are so many people who can talk and talk and talk and talk

And just say nothing or nearly nothing

I have used up all the scale I know

And at the end I've come to nothing

Or nearly nothing

[Verse 3]

So I come back to my first note

As I must come back to you

I will pour into that one note

All the love I feel for you

Anyone who wants the whole show

Rae Me Fa So La Di Doe

He will find himself with no show

Better play the note you know

[Verse 4]

There are so many people who can talk and talk and talk and talk

And just say nothing or nearly nothing

I have used up all the scale I know

And at the end I've come to nothing

Or nearly nothing

[Verse 5]

He will find himself with no show

Better play the note you know

He will find himself with no show

Better play the note you know
