(Stanley Adams & Oscar Levant)
|
They call it wacky dust
|
It's from a hot cornet
|
It gives your feet a feeling so breezy
|
And oh, it's so easy to get
|
|
They call it wacky dust
|
It brings a dancing jag
|
And once it starts, then only a
|
Sap'll refuse to Big Apple or Shag
|
|
Oh I don't know just why
|
It gets you so high
|
Putting a buzz in you heart
|
You'll do a marathon
|
You'll wanna go on
|
Kickin' the ceilin' apart
|
|
They call it wacky dust
|
It's something you can't trust
|
And in the end the rhythm will stop
|
When it does, then you'll drop
|
From happy wacky dust
|
|
