Everybody stutters one way or the other

So check out my message to you

As a matter of fact I 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 to you.

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 they could?

The state of the condition insults my intuitions

And it only makes me crazy and with a 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.

I'm the Scatman.

B-b-b-be bop a bodda bop

Bop a bodda bop

Be bop a bodda bop

Bop a bodda boop

B-b-b-be bop a bodda bop

Bop a bodda boop

Be bop a bodda bop

Bop a bodda bop

Ski-bi dibby dib yo da dub dub

Yo dab dub dub

Ski-bi dibby dib yo da dub dub

Yo dab dub dub

Ski-bi dibby dib yo da dub dub

Yo dab dub dub

Ski-bi dibby dib yo da dub dub

Yo dab dub dub

Yeah!

I'm the Scatman!

Everybody stutters one way or the other

So check out my message to you.

As a matter of fact I don't let nothin' hold you back.

If the Scatman can do it so can you.

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 had the chance to be born.

I'm the Scatman.

B-b-b-be bop a bodda bop

Bop a bodda boop

B-b-b-be bop a bodda bop

Bop a bodda boop

Be bop a bodda bop
