Ellamental — текст песни (Vanessa Williams)

Way back, take a look, she would cook

When they were stompin at the savoy

She would blow, and they would dance, dont you know ?

It was an uptown kind a show



Cool notes and melodies, harmonies

She sang the song of the universe

She can make a joyful noise up to heaven

And call the angels down to the earth



From jazz, to swing, to be-bop

She kept the spirit alive

For bo, duke, dizzy, and miles

She spoke her mind

Shes ellamental to the art

She spoke her mind

Shes ellamental to the art



Too hot, until the dawn she sang on

When joints were jumpin and jive was in

Bodies movin back and forth to the rhythm

Ever since ella first did her thing



From jazz, to swing to be-bop

She brought emotions and moves

She kept the spirit alive.

She spoke her mind



Act like ya know, oh!

Was it the smooth tones that was so much like butter

Oh ella was singin just like no other singer

Cause you know I be the funky bringer of the new style

Because I be the wild child.

Listenin to hip-hop, listening to be-bop and jazz

Ella made you move that ass

Sensation for the people, insperation for the sisters and brothers

Smooth jazz for the midnight lovers

Savoy was the spot for shakin on your rump and

Ella made it hoppin

Got the joint jumpin, remembering you til the dawn

Because ella your memory goes on



She spoke her mind (yeah...and it just dont stop)

Shes ellamental to the art (the memory goes on and on...cause it just dont stop)

She spoke her mind (...yeah..jazz to the bebop)

Shes ellamental to the art

She spoke her mind..(yeah...much love...)

She spoke her mind...
