Bad Jazz

You ain't no Charlie Bird man
This is the worst jazz I ever heard, man
Trying to come on like John Coltrane
You're a white stain on black name

Like bad jazz
Cheese on a hip hot day

East 17‚ Vanilla Ice‚ that ain't nice
You ain't pop popular‚ man
Pop world's like an old empty molasses can
Twenty white kids kicking 'round a basketball court

Bad jazz
Like cheese on a hip, hot day
Bad jazz

You ain't no Charlie nothin' man
You're more like Charlie Brown, man
That's all white right‚ right, white, right‚ man
Like forty-one and that ain't bright light

Bad jazz
Bad, bad, bad ass jazz

B A D J A Z Z Z Top
Viva Las Vegas
What the hell's that?
That's right, bad jazz, right white man

Mmm yeah

I ain't no Brooklyn queen
But at least I ain't Heaven 17
I don't talk like that man
I'm white, right, white, right, light white man, yeah

Bad jazz
Bad jazz

You ain't no Charlie Bird, man
This is the worst jazz I ever heard, man
Trying to come on like John Coltrane
You're more like Humphrey Lyttelton, man

Bad jazz, jazz, jazz
