The Wrong Idea by Charlie Barnet Lyrics

[Spoken]
And now, folks, ol' Slappy Hap is coming up here to sing one for you all, come up here Slappy!

[Singing]
Listen, folks, throughout the land
When you hear this kind of band
We don't think that they're so grand
'Cause this is the wrong idea

The kind of band on which we frown
Is this kind 'cause they bring you down
They think they're hot 'cause they go to town
This is the wrong idea

Don't plat it good, just play it cute
And make it rootie-tootie toot-toot
Doesn't do any good to get hep
So swing and sweat with Charlie Barnet

Many ideas will come and go
But this is one thing you ought to know
That this kinda stuff is gonna go
This is the wrong idea
