The Wrong Idea (Swing And Sweat With Charlie Barnet) - Charlie Barnet, Billy May

Listen, folks, throughout the land

When you hear this kind of band

We don’t think that they’re so grand

'Cause this is the wrong idea

The kind of band on which we frown

Is this kind 'cause they bring you down

They think they’re hot 'cause they go to town

This is the wrong idea

Don’t plat it good, just play it cute

And make it rootie-tootie toot-toot

Doesn’t do any good to get hep

So swing and sweat with Charlie Barnet

Many ideas will come and go

But this is one thing you ought to know

That this kinda stuff is gonna go

This is the wrong idea
