The Jitterbug - Harold Arlen, E. Y. Harburg

(Listen all you chillun to that voodoo moan

There’s a modern villun worser than that old boogie woogie

When that goofy critter spots your fancy clothes

He injects a jitter, Starts you dancing on a thousand toes, There he goes!)

Who’s that hiding in the tree top?

It’s that rascal, The Jitterbug!

Should you catch him buzzing 'round you

Keep away from, The Jitterbug!

Oh!

the bees in the breeze and the bats in the trees have a terrible,

horrible buzz

But the bees in the breeze and the bats in the trees couldn’t do what The

Jitterbug does!

So be careful of that rascal, Keep away from The Jitterbug!

The Jitterbug!

Oh!

The Jitter!

Oh The Bug!

Oh!

The Jitterbug, Bug-a-bug, bug-a-bug, bug-a-boo

In a twitter, in the throes, Oh the critter’s

Got me dancing on a thousand toes, Thar' she blows!
