Lyrics

That's it - play it Monk!

Mh-mh-mh

I mean I know a lot about music

I like the way you play

Some folks don't know nothin' about music

Like this one buddy o' mine

that square head no-hearing mail-carrying-used to-be-a-saxophone-player had the nerve,

he had the nerve to say to me:

"You know, Thelonious Monk's playin' is incorrect!"

Incorrect!?

If that's incorrect,

I guess some people say more in a few incorrect moments

than most people say their whole correct lives.

That's it, play it, Monk.

Play your mood
