Slap That Bass
Zoom, zoom, zoom, zoom
The world is in a mess.
With poltics and taxes,
and people grinding axes.
There's no happiness!
Zoom, zoom, zoom zoom.
Rhythm lead your ace!
The future doesn't fret me,
if I could only get me someone to slap that bass!
Happiness is not a riddle,
when I'm listening to that big bass fiddle.
Slap that bass!
Slap it 'til it's dizzy!
Slap that bass!
Keep the rhythm busy!
Zoom zoom zoom, misery has gotta go!
Slap that bass!
Use it like a tonic
Slap that bass!
Keep your philharmonic!
Zoom zoom zoom, and the milk and honey will flow!
Dictators would be better off if they zoom zoomed now and then,
(Zoom zoom zoom!)
Today you can see that the happiest men,
(Oh!)
all got rhythm!
In which case, if you want to bubble!
Slap that bass, slap away your trouble!
Learn to zoom zoom zoom,
Slap that bass!
(Bum, bum, bum, bum, ba bum ba bum)
(Zoom zoom! Zoom zoom!)
(Zoobity zoobity bum bum bum bum!)
Zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom!
(Huh!)
Dictators would be better off if they zoom zoomed now and then!
Today you can see that the happiest men,
all got rhythm!
All got rhythm!
In which case,
if you wanna bubble,
slap that bass,
slap away your trouble.
Learn to zoom zoom zoom!
Slap that bass!
The world is in a mess.
With poltics and taxes,
and people grinding axes.
There's no happiness!
Zoom, zoom, zoom zoom.
Rhythm lead your ace!
The future doesn't fret me,
if I could only get me someone to slap that bass!
Happiness is not a riddle,
when I'm listening to that big bass fiddle.
Slap that bass!
Slap it 'til it's dizzy!
Slap that bass!
Keep the rhythm busy!
Zoom zoom zoom, misery has gotta go!
Slap that bass!
Use it like a tonic
Slap that bass!
Keep your philharmonic!
Zoom zoom zoom, and the milk and honey will flow!
Dictators would be better off if they zoom zoomed now and then,
(Zoom zoom zoom!)
Today you can see that the happiest men,
(Oh!)
all got rhythm!
In which case, if you want to bubble!
Slap that bass, slap away your trouble!
Learn to zoom zoom zoom,
Slap that bass!
(Bum, bum, bum, bum, ba bum ba bum)
(Zoom zoom! Zoom zoom!)
(Zoobity zoobity bum bum bum bum!)
Zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom zoom!
(Huh!)
Dictators would be better off if they zoom zoomed now and then!
Today you can see that the happiest men,
all got rhythm!
All got rhythm!
In which case,
if you wanna bubble,
slap that bass,
slap away your trouble.
Learn to zoom zoom zoom!
Slap that bass!
