Lyrics
0:02This is just a little samba
0:05Built upon a single note
0:08Other notes are bound to follow
0:11But the root is still that note
0:14This new one is just the consequence
0:17Of the one we've just been through
0:20As I'm bound to be the unavoidable
0:23Consequence of you
0:26There's so many people who can
0:27Talk and talk and talk
0:28And just say nothing
0:30Or nearly nothing
0:32I have used up all the scale I know
0:34And at the end I've come to nothing
0:36Or nearly nothing
0:38So I came back to my first note
0:40As I must come back to you
0:43I will pour into that one note
0:46All the love I feel for you
0:49Anyone who wants the whole show
0:52Re mi fa sol la si do
0:55He will find himself with no show
0:58Better play
0:59You're single though
This is just a little samba Built upon a single note Other notes are bound to follow But the root is still that note This new one is just the consequence Of the one we've just been through As I'm bound to be the unavoidable Consequence of you There's so many people who can Talk and talk and talk And just say nothing Or nearly nothing I have used up all the scale I know And at the end I've come to nothing Or nearly nothing So I came back to my first note As I must come back to you I will pour into that one note All the love I feel for you Anyone who wants the whole show Re mi fa sol la si do He will find himself with no show Better play You're single though
