Scatman John – Scatman (Basic-Radio) (1994)

(Scatting by Scatman John)
I'm the Scatman
Everybody stutters one way or the other
So check out my message to you

As a matter of fact don't let nothin' hold you back

If the Scatman can do it so can you



Everybody's sayin' 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



Where's the Scatman? I'm the Scatman



Why should we be pleasin' all the politician heathens

Who would try to change the seasons if the could?

The state of the condition insults my intuitions

And it only makes me crazy and my heart like wood



Everybody stutters one way or the other

So check out my message to you

As a matter of fact don't let nothin' hold you back

If the Scatman can do it brother so can you

I'm the Scatman

I'm the Scatman



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 sleepin' the saints are still weepin' cause

Things you call dead haven't yet had the chance to be born



I'm the Scatman

I'm the Scatman….repeat after me

It's a scoobie oobie doobie scoobie doobie melody

I'm the Scatman….repeat after me

It's a scoobie oobie doobie scoobie doobie melody
