Lyrics
[Intro]
I'm the Scatman
I'm the Scatman
[Chorus]
Everybody stutters one way or the other
So check out my message to you
As a matter of fact, a-don't let nothing hold you back
If the Scatman can do it, so can you
[Verse 1]
Everybody's saying that the Scatman stutters
But doesn't ever stutter when he sings
But what you don't know, I'm gonna tell you right now
That the stutter and the scat is the same thing, yo, I'm the Scatman
[Verse 2]
Where's the Scatman? I'm the Scatman
Why should we be pleasing any politician heathens
Who would try to change the seasons if they could?
The state of the condition insults my intuition
And it only makes me crazy and hard like wood
[Chorus]
Everybody stutters one way or the other
So check out my message to you
As a matter of fact, don't let nothing hold you back
If the Scatman can do it, brother, so can you, I'm the Scatman
[Chorus]
Everybody stutters one way or the other
So check out my message to you
As a matter of fact, a-don't let nothing hold you back
If the Scatman can do it, so can you
[Verse 3]
I hear you all ask 'bout the meaning of scat
Well, I'm the professor and all I can tell you
Is while you're still sleeping, the saints are still weeping
'Cause things you call dead haven't yet had the chance to be born
I'm the Scatman
[Bridge]
Yeah, I'm the Scatman
Where's the Scatman?
I'm the Scatman, repeat after me
It's a scoobie-oobie-doobie, scoobie-doobie melody
I'm the Scatman, sing along with me
It's a scoobie-oobie-doobie, scoobie-doobie melody
Yeah, I'm the Scatman
[Outro]
I'm the Scatman
Yeah, I'm the Scatman
Sing along with me
It's a scoobie-oobie-doobie, scoobie-doobie melody
