"Fifteen Minute Intermission" lyrics
Cab Calloway And His Orchestra Lyrics
Say, what's the matter with you cats
You sure look beat back there this evening
Look like you've been knocking yourselves out!
We want a 15 minute intermission, boss
We want a 15 minute intermission, boss
We want a 15 minute intermission, boss
With your permission!
Intermission?
We want a 15 minute intermission, boss
We want a 15 minute intermission, boss
We want a 15 minute intermission, boss
In our condition!
Intermission is up, the music's got to stop, I'm sure
An intermission is the only cure
To ease your palpitatin' embouchure
You'll never get to heaven if you treat me this way!
We want a 15 minute intermission, boss
We want a 15 minute intermission, boss
We want a 15 minute intermission, boss
With your permission!
Intermission!
Take a fifteen minute intermission, boys
Take a fifteen minute intermission, boys
Take a fifteen minute intermission, boys
In your condition
Intermission!
Take a fifteen minute intermission, boys
Take a fifteen minute intermission, boys
Take a fifteen minute intermission, boys
In your condition
Intermission is up, the music's got to stop, I'm sure
An intermission is your only cure
To ease your palpitatin' embouchure
You'll never get to heaven if you treat me this way!
You take a fifteen minute intermission, boys
Take a fifteen minute intermission, boys
Fifteen minute intermission, boys
At my permission
Intermission!
Now you cats can go on in the back and rest for a few ticks
And these folks can come back and knock themselves out in just a few ticks
But I want you cats to take it easy when you come back and knock yourself right on out now
Folks I'm sorry but there's intermission now
You can go back to your tables and sit down, take it easy for a few ticks
Miss Jones, enjoying yourself?
Are you having a nice time Miss Smith?
Thank you very much, intermission
You sure look beat back there this evening
Look like you've been knocking yourselves out!
We want a 15 minute intermission, boss
We want a 15 minute intermission, boss
We want a 15 minute intermission, boss
With your permission!
Intermission?
We want a 15 minute intermission, boss
We want a 15 minute intermission, boss
We want a 15 minute intermission, boss
In our condition!
Intermission is up, the music's got to stop, I'm sure
An intermission is the only cure
To ease your palpitatin' embouchure
You'll never get to heaven if you treat me this way!
We want a 15 minute intermission, boss
We want a 15 minute intermission, boss
We want a 15 minute intermission, boss
With your permission!
Intermission!
Take a fifteen minute intermission, boys
Take a fifteen minute intermission, boys
Take a fifteen minute intermission, boys
In your condition
Intermission!
Take a fifteen minute intermission, boys
Take a fifteen minute intermission, boys
Take a fifteen minute intermission, boys
In your condition
Intermission is up, the music's got to stop, I'm sure
An intermission is your only cure
To ease your palpitatin' embouchure
You'll never get to heaven if you treat me this way!
You take a fifteen minute intermission, boys
Take a fifteen minute intermission, boys
Fifteen minute intermission, boys
At my permission
Intermission!
