What's jazz
Originating in America
But then all this is known to everyone
No fun to hear all that you know
What's jazz
You know of Count Basie John Coltrane
Louis Armstrong and all those names
You know they made the different styles we hear
But is Jazz a style
Or just the rhythm played
And will it still be jazz
Without the improvising style
Is it an American thing
A culture old and boring
Does it have to be done the way that they've played
Cause isn't jazz supposed to be fun and free
You know
I haven't studied to sing at school
I don't know'bout all the chords they use
The music theory that they play is too
Confusing for my simple mind
You see
Ella Billie and Anita taught me all I know
That's how I sing my jazz
That's not jazz
Or It's a privilege
We've heard them many times
But don't you see it's not logic
Miles Davis is great to hear
But try a different ear
4 Hero Jazzanova Matthew Herbert
Cause otherwise you're saying
That Jazz is dead
One thing
Let me explain I do love the old
But I'm living in the present now
Like Blues and Soul and also Rock
That's jazz
That's why I sing as I sing today
And I'll be singing all I feel That's Jazz
