I went to a concert, to see Nina, Simone,
|
The concert was over, there was still a band playing, the rap up,
|
|
The "booguh" played with his hands, I close my eyes, and look at him,
|
Victor should have been a jazz musician,
|
I said to myself, Victor should have been a jazz musician,
|
|
I looked at his face, and I saw Victor, looked at his smile, and I saw Victor,
|
I looked at his hair, and thought,
|
Victor should have been a jazz musician,
|
Victor should have been a jazz musician,
|
|
And the people dancing on the floor, dancing on the floor, were so high,
|
You should have seen Victor smile, you should have seen Victor smile,
|
As they danced all the while all around on the floor, and he laughed,
|
|
Victor should have been a jazz musician,
|
Oh, Victor should have been a jazz musician,
|
He was playing so nice, the jazz musician,
|
Ah, ah,
|
He's living in a fast beat, in a city that's hot,
|
Telling all the Latinos and Puerto Ricans, Victor seems happy, but he doesn't even know himself, he's gotta look inside to know his first love,
|
Victor was a Jazz musician, he was playing so nice, Victor was a Jazz musician, (?) Victor was a Jazz musician,
|
Victor loves his music, he loves his music, somewhere, he plays his music, somewhere,
|
Victor is a jazz musician,
|
Jazz.
