Текст песни Calypso Be (Young Tiger) с переводом

To tell you friends I’m quite unenthused.

This modern music’s got me confused,

To tell you friends I’m quite unenthused.

I like Pee Wee Hunt or the great Count Basie

But can’t make head nor tail of this Dizzy Gillespie

With his

Oop-pop-a-da

Be-a-ba-du-la-be-plee

Ple-oobly-oobly-oobly-oobie

Chum-cheeree-a-bah

Oop-pop-a-dee-de-doom ah-ah!

Dizzy Gillespie is the creator

Of this new style along in co with Charlie Parker,

Coleman Hawkins, Howard McGhee —

They all indulge in this monstrosity

They take a major seventh and a flated ninth

Two ool-ya-koos and a half a pint

Then

Oop-pop-a-da

Be-a-ba-du-la-be-plee

Ple-oobly-oobly-oobly-oobie

Chum-cheeree-a-bah

Oop-pop-a-dee-de-doom ah-ah!

The beboppers you see around

They all converse in a special tongue

«Ool-ya-koo"and «eel-ya-da»

One means «hello», the other «ta ta».

They call a man «a cat"and a girl «a chick»,

And they’re up to all kinds of shady tricks

With their

Oop-pop-a-da

Be-a-ba-du-la-be-plee

Ple-oobly-oobly-oobly-oobie

Chum-cheeree-a-bah

Oop-pop-a-dee-de-doom ah-ah!

In conclusion I must now say

The bebop boys they know how to play

But that music is not for me

So take it back Mr. Gillespie

You better take it back to 52nd Street

With your high speed riffs and stacatto beats

And your

Oop-pop-a-da

Be-a-ba-du-la-be-plee

Ple-oobly-oobly-oobly-oobie

Chum-cheeree-a-bah

Oop-pop-a-dee-de-doom ah-ah!

Ah-ah!
