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 reharmonize

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 reharmonize

You need to tell her how to recognize

 

A swing from a bossa,

Samba from Be-Bop

 

Cause she knows nothing at all

 

Come on, Jazz Police throw that singer in jail!
