Текст (слова) песни: Manhattan Transfer - The Offbeat of Avenues

Big blues in the city, trailin the
main stroll (a kitty)
Cup o joe, get witty. At Deuces
Cafe, its the mostest hideaway

Mez muggles "Flip Zooty Flim
Plant you now solid,
dig you later Slim"
First you crawl then you walk,
scat then you talk
Hear the cool, feel the heat of the
Rhythm of the offbeat of avenues

Help me, he blew his wig
(Lay it on)
He plays gutbucket doghouse dig
(Chick is hot)
For the hide-beater on the stand
(Really gone)
Hear that Gabriels growl
Break it up, beat it out

This canary has got a frame
(She can chirp)
And some high-jiver
knows her name
(Digs his vine)
Cats all friskin their
whiskers...Ow
(Jam is on pops)
I collar all jive, give me five
(Now you dig, alive)
So I know youre alive
In the dim youve arrived

Cruel lips, whisper baby
Pulse of the neon, shes crazy
Smokin eyes, get hazy
Like beauty to beast,
"Youre the most to say the least"

(Do you have any) Monk,
Cozy, Red, Yank, or Prez?
Lets cut some rug gate these skins
are a mess
First you crawl then you walk,
scat then you talk
Its nirvana, its attitude
Rhythm of the offbeat of avenues

Help me, he blew his wig
(Lay it on)
He plays gutbucket doghouse dig
(Chick is hot)
For the hide-beater on the stand
(Really gone)
Hear that Gabriels growl
Break it up, beat it out

This canary has got a frame
(She can chirp)
And some high-jiver
knows her name
(Digs his vine)
Cats all friskin their
whiskers...Ow
(Jam is on pops)
I collar all jive, give me five
(Now you dig, alive)
So I know youre alive

(Bouyoot
Two finger-like lickin...
This cat, is hot friskin...
The jam is on now)

First you crawl then you walk
(Man shes a blip)
Scat then you talk
(Ofay plays hip)
Comp...
Rest...
Rhythm of the off beat...

(Wacky Interlude)

Help me, he blew his wig
(Lay it on)
He plays gutbucket doghouse dig
(Chick is hot)
For the hide-beater on the stand
(Really gone)
Hear that Gabriels growl
Break it up, beat it out

This canary has got a frame
(She can chirp)
And some high-jiver
knows her name
(Digs his vine)
Cats all friskin their
whiskers...Ow
(Jam is on pops)
I collar all jive, give me five
(Now you dig, alive)
So I know youre alive

(Repeat and fade)
