Blues (all the Rage)
Mezz blew hot New Orleans jazz
Vipers drew in another drag, we's clean
Porkpie hats, minor leagues
Cutting sides for no royalties, we's green
33 was where it would begin
And I recall halcyon days
Blues, it was all the rage
Blues, it was all the rage, and we's blue
Prohibition, recording bans
Bop the music would be the vanguard thing
33 was was really happening
And I recall halcyon days
Blues, it was all the rage
Blues, it was all the rage, and we's blue
Came a day they caged the Bird
Billie's holiday at Leavenworth, obscene
Oh and Clifford Brown's been rolling cars
Long before we's a rock and roll star scene
33 was really happening
And I recall halcyon days
Blues, it was all the rage
Blues, it was all the rage, and we's blue
All the rage
All the rage
All the rage, and we's blue
