The Manhattan Transfer

The Manhattan Transfer - Topsy songtekst

Je score:

Janis' solo:

Brothers n' sisters listen while I tell you about the strangest thing

Somethin' you might have heard before, like a bell's familiar ring



Topsy-thought he had it all covered, Yes sir!

Turvy, he never really had a mind to hear 

what Mr. Topsy had to say



It's such a scene

Fightin' all the time

They're gettin' mean

All the sparks're flyin'

Is this a dream?

Makes you wanna cry

I'm gonna scream

What's the point?

I wonder why.



Janis' solo continued:

My, my, my, my, my people you should know -

these cats'll never get no relief

Turvy, and sweet - Top-sy - it's so pulverizin', paralyzin';

Doncha know?

(YES YES)



Tim's solo:

Y' know I really don't get it

That's the way it always seems to be-dread it

Everytime I come around these cats are always 

scrappin'

Yappin' all about some little fluffy piece of ding a lingin'

stain around the elbow

A bit of this, a bit of that - you bet your dollar that the 

joint's a hellzapoppin'

Man alive!

Topsy's in a fit

Turvy's in a snit

Ain't there anyone here who can put out the fire?



This is the most exasperatin' situation tell ya

I ain't-never seen the likes of this one

And I have seen a bunch that'll really make y' think

about it

Wait a minute, hold your horses, here they comin' now



Oh Mr. Topsy you sure bring me down

Better believe you're spittin' the cotton-you are spittin' the cotton now

Ah!

And Mr. Turvy your head's no where bound

It's somethin' I would rather do without

Ha!



Piano Solo



Ain't you had enough of Topsy Turvy

I've had more than I can handle n' it's tested my patience now

Sick and tired of this crazy scene

I'm a little more than sick n' tired, oh, I'm really wired

There's another way to go about this brother

Won'tcha hear me now, got'ta dig what I'm 'bout to tell ya

Loving one another's what I mean

-Boy love'll really straighten y' out - If you'll only check it out



It's such a scene

Fightin's such a crime

Now, they're gettin' mean

Bound t' lose their mind

Man, is this a dream?

Wastin' so much time

Help! I'm gonna scream

Wastin' yours

And wastin' mine



Topsy Turvey's World is Topsy Turvy

a little lovin' might undo it

Just because they can't meet in between



Woe, (oh) Woe (no) Woe (oh) Woe (no) Woe

Woe, Woe, Woe, Woe, Woe

Woe, (oh no) Woe (oh no) Woe (oh no) Woe (oh no)

Woe

Top-sy Tur-vy Top-sy Tur-vy Oooooooh



What a pity.
