The singer from hell

The Singer From Hell Sophie Dunér © 2009

The singer from hell wants it all.

The singer from hell knows it all.

The singer from hell tells you what to do,

How to groove and how to move.

The singer from hell knows how to sing.

But even worse – how to swing.

The singer from hell knows the worst to expect:

That’s how to read.

No need to tell her how to re-harmonize.

No need to tell her how to recognize

A major from minor,

A triad from a fifth.

’Cause she knows it all.

The singer from hell wants nothing at all.

The singer from hell knows nothing at all.

The singer from hell doesn’t know what to do:

How to groove and how to move.

The singer from hell doesn’t know how to sing.

But even worse: not how to swing.

The singer from hell doesn’t know theory,

Or how to read.

You need to tell her how to re-harmonize.

You need to tell her how to recognize.

A swing from a bossa,

Samba from Be-Bop.
