Lyric Sing A Study In Brown
Intro:
Picture this: Rhythm n happiness
Souls in bliss n havin fun
(Oh no)
If you can t there s nothin to it
(Oh no)
I m thinkin I have t paint you one
Verse:
I m gonna paint a sepia panorama
so full of life the painting will come alive
Bathed in blues n full of drama
An all the swing they needed so they d survive
I ll add some tans an yellow ocher
Such soul! So full of rhythm
an then some orange t tone up the black a bit
My goal is to be with em
Purple haze t lull the smoker
What swing! What syncopation
an cherry red t loosen the back a bit
That thing captured a nation
An then a mere patina of subtle green
Get down with me - you ll dig my study in brown
to lighten up the purple n tone it down
Get down with me - tell about it all over town
A dancing glow to highlight the subtle scene
Get down with me - Dig how I m paintin the town
an there you ll have a study in brown
My study in brown
Well, git brown!
Oh yeah, brown is the pigment
Well, git down!
Oh yeah, that s what cha really meant
Clown!
Oh yeah, that s some study
We re puttin down "A Study In Brown"
Coda: (That s why we re callin it, "A Study In Brown!")
Git brown!
Oh yeah, brown is the pigment
n git down!
Oh yeah, that s what cha really meant
Clown!
Oh yeah, that s some study
Dig what I mean! It s in the scene
Guitar solo
What cha talkin bout?
(Rhythm-A-Ning)
That s my scene rhythm n dancin
(Rhythm-A-Ning)

(Yep!)
I ll come clean,
That s the way I like it
Y start real thin, then put some color in
(Rhythm-A-Ning)
Fuschia hues blended with subtones
(Rhythm-A-Ning)
Spread them blues, blarin trombones
(Yep!)
Paint that scene
Just the way I like it
A dab or two - that s how to do it.

Guitar Solo
