Under communism, Scatman John would be imprisoned for saying "Ba-da-ba-da-ba-be bop bop bodda bope"

15 years ago we had Scatman John bop bodda bope and Obama's hope.

Now we got no scat, no hope and some Obama soda.

We can't do it, man! That's discipline! That's like tellin' Gene Krupa not to go "boom boom bam bam bam, boom boom bam bam bam, boom boom boom bam ba ba ba ba, da boo boo tss!" We don't believe in rules, like, we gave them up when we started livin' like freaky beatniks!

Listen to Scatman's World. He was one of us.
