One two, one two three four

Alright, that's the melody
Now, here it is with the mouth,
As performed at eva's wedding

And now, here is way number three:

Hey!
It's so modern

Can't have any of that

Later on we'll have a dance-contest
And some lucky member of the audience

Just wanna see how long...

Alright, now here it is, all the way through
It's so exhilarating

Eric dolphy memorial barbecue!

Hey! that's a good idea, isn't it

Thank you!

Thank you very much
Thank you, and thank you
And thank you some more
And thank you very much
And thank you
And thank you
Giddis, thank you, thank you...
