Scatman's World

I'm the Scatman
I'm the Scatman


Everybody stutters one way or the other
so check out my message to you 
As a matter of fact don't let nothin' hold you back     
if the Scatman can do it so can you      


Everybody's sayin' that the Scatman stutters     
but doesn't ever stutter when he sings  
But what you don't know I'm gonna tell you right now     
that the stutter and the scat is the same thing
Yo I'm the Scatman   


Where's the Scatman? I'm the Scatman


Why should we be pleasin' all the politician heathens     
Who would try to change the seasons if he could     
The state of the condition insults my intuitions     
and it only makes me crazy and my heart like wood     


Everybody stutters one way or the other
so check out my message to you 
As a matter of fact don't let nothin' hold you back     
if the Scatman can do it brother so can you


Everybody stutters one way or the other
so check out my message to you 
As a matter of fact don't let nothin' hold you back     
if the Scatman can do it brother so can you


I'm the Scatman


I hear you all ask 'bout the meaning of scat
Well I'm the professor and all I can tell you is     
while you're still sleepin' the saints are still weepin' cause     
things you call dead haven't yet had the chance to be born


I'm the Scatman
