I'm here to just confirm what I've been
  really always sayin'
  About modern jazz
  It's the savior of the nation
  And I'll believe it if you do too
  The rhythm & blues
  
  Like Bird
  When he thought of this melody
  The message he played on his horn
  Was the steady confirmation
  That he discovered
  The sound that makes the music be free
  
  This may sound unstable
  But I know I'm able to concentrate in song to you
  My lyrics may go fast
  Sometimes a word may get past folks
  But so I keep it swingin'
  I know I've got to stay true
  
  So like the Bird I'm gonna say that jazz is always
  A happiness groove
  So come on and I'll confirm it
  'Cause certainly the Bird that I heard
  made the word of confirmation
