The Jitterbug Lyrics by Judy Garland, Victor Young & His Orchestra

The Musical Score of the M-G-M Production “THE WIZARD OF OZ”

0

[DOROTHY]
Did you just hear what I just heard?
[LION]
That noise don't come from an ordinary bird
[DOROTHY]
It may be just a cricket, or a critter in the trees
[TIN MAN]
It's giving me the jitters in the joints around my knees
[LION]
I think I see a shadow, and he's fuzzy and he's furry
[SCARECROW]
I haven't got a brain, but I think I ought to worry
[TIN MAN]
I haven't got a heart, but I got a palpitation
[LION]
As Monarch of the forest, I don't like this sitchy-ation
[DOROTHY]
Are you gonna stand around and let him fill us full of horror?
[LION]
I'd like to roar him down
But I think I lost my roarer
[TIN MAN]
It's a whozis!
[SCARECROW]
It's a whozis?
[LION]
It's a whatzis!
[SCARECROW]
It's a whatzis?
[TIN MAN]
Whozat?
[LION]
Whozat?
[SCARECROW]
Whozat?
[DOROTHY]
Whozat?
Who's that hiding
In the tree top?
It's that rascal
The Jitterbug
Should you catch him?
Buzzin' round you
Keep away from
The Jitterbug
Oh, the bats and the bees
And the breeze in the trees
Have a terrible, horrible buzz
But the bats and the bees
And the breeze in the trees
Couldn't do what the Jitterbug does
So be careful
Of that rascal
Keep away from
[TIN MAN, SCARECROW, & LION]
The Jitterbug
Oh, the Jitter
Oh, the Bug
Oh, the Jitter
[ALL]
Bug-bug-a-bug-bug-bug-bug-bug-a-boo
In a twitter
In the throes
[SCARECROW]
Oh the critter's
Got me dancing on a thousand toes
[TIN MAN]
Thar' she blows
[Instrumental Outro]
