Chameleon Lyrics


Chameleon, you're breakin' his heart
It's in pieces on the ground - all apart
There's nothing that that boy won't do when it comes to you
Chameleon, you know that it's wrong
But it's fun to have someone you can pull along
The way you treat that boy ain't fair, but he don't care
What does it mean if you know you don't mean it?
What does it say if you got nothing to say?
He's just your silly little thing hangin' on a string
Waiting by the phone praying it'll ring
You know it ain't right
'Cause you're never gonna do what he wants to
Kneeling by the bed, praying it true
You know it ain't right
Chameleon, what's he gonna do?
You gloss them lips, shake them hips
Honey, what's wrong with you?
He'll follow you wherever you go, and I know you know

What does it mean it you know you don't mean it?
What does it say if you got nothing to say?
He's just your silly little thing hangin' on a string
Waiting by the phone praying it'll ring
You know it ain't right
'Cause you're never gonna do what he wants to
Kneeling by the bed, praying it true
You know it ain't right
You ain't gotta tell me, he fell too fast
But would you just tell him it ain't gonna last
What does it mean it you know you don't mean it?
What does it say if you got nothing to say?
He's just your silly little thing hangin' on a string
Waiting by the phone praying it'll ring
You know it ain't right
'Cause you're never gonna do what he wants to
Kneeling by the bed, praying it true
You know it ain't right

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Eddie Jefferson (3 August 1918 - 9 May 1979) was a jazz vocalist and the founder of vocalese, where a singer sings words to a famous instrumental solo. His best known composition is "Moody's Mood for Love" though it was recorded first by King Pleasure, who cites Jefferson as an influence. His songs "Parker's Mood" and "Filthy McNasty" were also hits.
Jefferson's last recorded performance was at the Joe Segal's Jazz Showcase in Chicago. His band at that performance was Richie Cole (alto sax), John Campbell (piano), Kelly Sill (bass) and Joel Spencer (drums).
