0:37:02 > 0:37:05# I have no kick against modern jazz

0:37:05 > 0:37:08# Unless they try to play it too darn fast

0:37:08 > 0:37:11# And change the beauty of the melody

0:37:11 > 0:37:14# And make it sound like some symphony

0:37:14 > 0:37:19# That's why I go for that rock'n'roll music

0:37:46 > 0:37:49# And everybody got all shook up

0:37:50 > 0:37:53# And started playing that rock'n'roll music

0:37:53 > 0:37:56# Any old way you choose it

0:37:57 > 0:38:00# A backbeat you can't lose it

0:38:38 > 0:38:41# As I got on a city bus and found a vacant seat

0:38:41 > 0:38:44# I thought I saw my future wife walking up the street

0:38:44 > 0:38:48# Shouted to the driver, "Hey, Conductor, you must slow down

0:38:48 > 0:38:50# "I think I see her, Please let me off the bus"

0:38:50 > 0:38:52# Nadine!

0:39:03 > 0:39:07# Yeah, every time I see you You got something else to do

0:39:09 > 0:39:12# I saw her from the corner when she turned and doubled back

0:39:12 > 0:39:16# Started walking toward a coffee-coloured Cadillac

0:39:16 > 0:39:19# Pushing through the crowd, trying to get to where she's at

0:39:19 > 0:39:22# Campaigning, shoutin' like a Georgian diplomat

0:39:22 > 0:39:26# Nadine! Honey, is that you?

0:39:28 > 0:39:33# Nadine! Nadine, honey is that you?

0:40:15 > 0:40:18This happens to be in E Flat. It's a very cute little number.

0:40:18 > 0:40:21As a matter of fact, it's a fourth grade ditty.

0:40:21 > 0:40:27And I'm sure that, er, we won't need accompaniment...

0:40:28 > 0:40:34Also, it happens to be a song of togetherness.

0:40:34 > 0:40:37You see, if it wasn't for togetherness then I wouldn't be here.

0:40:37 > 0:40:42And none of the rest of you would be here, either, if it wasn't for togetherness.

0:40:42 > 0:40:44It's such a beautiful thing, you know,

0:40:44 > 0:40:48and it also happens to be a... a sexy song which...

0:40:48 > 0:40:52Oh, there's nothing wrong with sex, no, not a thing wrong with sex.

0:40:52 > 0:40:55Beautiful, it's the most beautiful thing in the world.

0:41:00 > 0:41:03"Son, son... there's nothing wrong with sex.

0:41:03 > 0:41:05"It's just the way that you handle it, you see."

0:41:05 > 0:41:11And he taught us to handle it, er, properly, you see.

0:41:11 > 0:41:14We're going to do this little number, it's a fourth-grade number.

0:41:14 > 0:41:17We're going to show them - the gentlemen - their part first
