(G.Cifarelli)
A long time ago Dizzy Gilespie
with the genius Charlie “The Bird”
in New York brought to life
the new music: Be bop!
I’d like to be up in the sky
to hear the greatest jam ever played
Bird, Wes, Monk, Philly Jo, Mingus let’s play!
Look at King Cole singin’ to Billie
While Duke swing with Lester and Trane
I’m dreaming I don’t know but
don’t wake me up!
