The Jitterbug

Judy Garland

    Continues after the ad

    DOROTHY: Did you just hear what I just heard?
    LION: That noise don't come from no 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.

    SCARECROW: I think I see a jijik, and he's fuzzy and he's furry.
    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 the 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 whosis?
    LION: It's a whatzis.
    SCARECROW: It's a whatzis?
    TIN MAN: Whozat?
    LION: Whozat?

    DOROTHY (singing chorus):
    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
    The Jitterbug!
