A jazz singer with a garage-rock voice
A doll switched on by swing
A jazzwoman between two eras
Who dreams of re-entering the ring
A first prize vibrato
The former cover-star of magazines
Who dresses up as the queen of disco
As long as jazz leaves me alone
Back off, jazz
Banana split Joséphine
Back off, jazz
It smells like your kitchen is burning
Back off, jazz
Banana split Joséphine
Back off, jazz
There's nobody left in this dance club
Bebop closed up shop
The swing factory is shut down
Bye bye nostalgic piano bars
Too bad for the Broadway fanatics
I listen to the singers in Hello Sister
You seem disappointed
Too late to shake your maracas
I wish jazz would give up on me
Back off, jazz
Banana split Joséphine
Back off, jazz
Don't come and ruin my mood
Back off, jazz
Banana split Joséphine
Back off, jazz
I can't stop the machine
Back off, jazz...
