Woke up feeling kinda blue
Found my miles and hopped into
Another dimension
That opened up for us
Hooked on your beat
And the drive of your chorus
At last
I found my betta than Etta
Got my volts waggin
Hertz gettin better
Took the "A" train
After gettin lost in the rain
And then I took my time
To a rosier shade of mind
They say it don't mean a thing
If it ain't got that swing
In a sentimental mood
Now it's mercy mercy me
And I'm gonna sing sing sing
Love the blue in the green
So what
So what
So what
So what
Who cares what anyone thinks?

Cuz we were young
And we were restless
We tried to love
You just to forget
That we've been petty
And so reckless
To what we'd be
Forgetting of our own fate
When it's so easy to take
And forget about what all
We'd be
Oh we're so young and
So reckless indeed
Oh we are so restless
And so young indeed

Some days I freeload like Freddie
Other days look for Lena
So heavy on the Horne
You can call me, Anita
And yeah that fruit strange
Around midnight, imma eat ya
Once I caught a Cab and Calloway
Please take five
It's my favorite thing
Acknowledge our love
And how it reigns supreme
I once got so lost
Til I dreamed a little dream
Of me and you
Recreating rhapsodies in blue
Your satin doll
Insidious to you
Got me twisted over you
Like I ain't know better
When the mood's indigo
Save the stardust forever
When it comes at you
Ain't no eraser
When the sidewinder's fate
Comes straight to you
No chaser
God bless the child who suffers
Halleluh-YA
Said diminuendo
I said crescendo in blue

Been channeling
The Miles I've traveled
The Coltranes ridden
And the Count Basies gathered
My Arm's Strong
Channeling Louie
The Billie Holidays
All passed me in a douzy
And I'm Dizzy like Gillepsie
Waiting on the good story
Returning rhythm
To the blues before me
When it's all said and done
Do I love you?
Oh my
Do I?
Deed I do

Cuz we were young
And we were restless
We tried to love
You just to forget
That we've been petty
And so reckless
To what we'd be
Forgetting of our own fate
When its so easy to take
And forget about what all
We'd be
Oh we're so young and
So reckless indeed
Oh we are so restless
And so young indeed

Giant steps
Take me back
To a night in Tunisia
Where the West End Blues
Sank the girl from Ipanema
You can still hear her calling
Screaming out for her mama
Seeking out flamencos in the
Sketches of her drama
She could have come back
But shit
She said she didn't wanna
I can't hold it against her
And you can't either
As she found the blessings
After being straight
Ripped from seams
In the screams of regret
She hailed for you
Paralyzed by the lies
Of the bitches brew
Compared to what she said
She thought she knew
A stone cold return
To Potato Head Blues
Alas someday
Your Prince will come through
How high the moon
So frail
Just for you?

Been channeling
The Miles I've traveled
The Coltranes ridden
And the Count Basies gathered
My Arm's Strong
Channeling Louie
The Billie Holidays
All passed me in a douzy
And I'm Dizzy like Gillepsie
Waiting on the good story
Returning rhythm
To the blues before me
And when it's all said and done
Do I love you?
Oh my
Do I?
Deed I do

Cuz we were young
And we were restless
We tried to love
You just to forget
That we've been petty
And so reckless
To what we'd be
Forgetting of our own fate
When its so easy to take
And forget about what all
We'd be
Oh we're so young and
So reckless indeed
Oh we are so restless
And so young indeed
