Mister Paganini, please play my rhapsody

And if you cannot play it, won't you sing it

And if you can't sing it, you simply have to

swing it

I said swing it

Oh-oh-oh swing it

And don't ding it

Oh mister Paganini, we breathlessly await

Your masterful d‚tente, go-o on and sling it

And if you can't sling it

You'll simply have to swing it

I said swing it

And scattywahwah

And wahdyscatla

We've heard your repertoire and

At the final bar

We've greeted you with wild applause

But what a great ovation

Your interpretation

Pat-scoodle-atty-doody yeah yeah yeah

Oh Mister Paganini, now don't you be a meanie

What have you up your sleeve, go on and spring it

And if you can't spring it, you'll simply have to

swing it
