Lyrics (If You Can't Sing It) You'll Have to Swing It

The concert was over in Carnagie Hall
The maestro took bow after bow
He said my dear friends
I have given my all
I'm sorry it's all over now
When from the gallery way up high
There suddenly came this mournful cry
Mister Paganini please play my rhapsody
And if you cannot play it won't you sing it
And if you can't sing it you simply have to
Booh beeh deeh dooh beeh dooh dweeh dooh eeh eeh doh ah, ah loh ah oh
Mister Paganini we breathlessly await
Your masterful baton go on and sling it
And if you can't sling it you simply have to
Bah, eeh, eeh, bah dooh booh beeh dooh beeh daw
Eeh yooh boh eeh yooh beeh dooh beeh dooh
We've heard your repertoire and at the final bar
We greeted you with wild applause
But what a great ovation your interpretation
Oh boh dooh beh deed beeh deeh beh deeh doh boh deeh beeh deh beeh
Eeh beeh deeh beeh hum dooh bah bouam dam dah oh
Mister Paganini now don't you be a meanie
What have you up your sleeve come on and spring it
And if you don't spring it that means you have to
Eeh, dooh dooh bah dooh pah pah peeh peeh
Deeh deeh deeh leeh deeh deeh dooh ding deeh deeh
Dleeh dooh deeh deeh dleeh oh deeh dah dah
Oh mister Paganini please play my rhapsody
And if you cannot play it won't you sing it
And if the boys are bopping ain't no need in stopping
Ooh bah beeh tooh bah beeh teeh dah dah lah
Boh toh boh doh boh doh doh deh deh loh doh bah noh bah
Mister Paganini we breathlessly await
Your masterful baton go on and sing it
If the boys are bopping ain't no need in stopping
A tisket
A tasket
I lost my yellow basket
Bop, beeh boh peeh pah dah yooh boh dooh beeh yooh beeh
Heard your repertoire and at the final bar
We greeted you with wild applause
What a great ovation your interpretation
Bah tooh looh yeah dooh wah dooh
Listen Paganini now don't you be a meanie
What have you up your sleeve come on and spring it
And if you don't spring it that means you'll have to
We've heard your repertoire and at the final bar
We greeted you we greeted you with wild applause
Oh but what a great ovation your interpretation
Bah beh dooh boh deeh beh deh beh boh boh beeh leh deh
Beeh deeh beeh boh boh beh eeh deeh dah dah dah noh
Mister Paganini now don't you be a meanie
What have you up your sleeve come on and spring it
And if you don't spring it that means you'll have to swing it
