One Note Samba

This is just a little samba, built upon a single note

Other notes are bound to follow, but the root is still that note

Now, this new one is the consequence of the one we've just been through

As I'm bound to be the unavoidable consequence of you

There's so many people who can talk, and talk, and talk

And just say nothing, or nearly nothing

I have used up all the scale, and I know at the end

I've come to nothing, or nearly nothing

So I come back to that first note, as I must come back to you

I will pour into that one note all the love I feel for you

Anyone who wants the whole show, re-mi-fa-so-la-ti-do

He will find himself with no show, better play that note you know

He will find himself with no show, better play that note you know
