one note samba
it's a hidden fave of mine, hidden in my medulla oblongata it's so familiar, so well-known, so aboriginal. every big name played this song, like quincy jones, frank sinatra, dizzy gillespie, perry-kinsley, even ugly duckling made a cover version. so you're ready for a little sing-a-long? it willn't be hard, it's about to sing one note, alright? o.k. ready, steady, go!
This is just a little samba, built upon a single note. Other notes are sure to follow, but the root is still that note ... Now this new note is the consequence of the one we've just been through As I'm bound to be the unavoidable consequence of you ... There's so many people who can 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 I mean nothing 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 Any one who wants the whole show show do-re-mi-fa-so-la-si-do He will find himself with no show better play the note you know.
