  • 5,000 light years from Birdland
    But I'm still preachin' the rhythm
    Long gone, uptight years from Birdland
    An' I'm still teachin' it with 'em
    Years from the land of the Bird
    An' I am still feelin' the spirit
    5,000 light years from Birdland
    But I know people can hear it
    Bird named it, Bird made it, Bird heard it, then played it
    Well stated! Birdland
    It happened down in Birdland
    Oh!
    In the middle of that hub
    I remember one jazz club
    Where we went to pat feet
    Down on fifty-second street
    Everybody heard that word
    That they named it after Bird
    Where the rhythm swooped and swirled
    The jazz corner of the world
    An' the cats they gigged in there
    Were beyond compare
    Birdland, I'm singin' Birdland
    Birdland, ol' swingin' Birdland
    Hey, man, the music really turns you on!
    Y' turn me on
    Really, y' turn me around'
    'N turn me on
    Down them stairs, lose them cares, where?
    Down in Birdland
    Total swing, Bop was king there
    Down in Birdland
    Bird would cook, Max would look, where?
    Down in Birdland
    Miles came through, 'Trane came too there
    Down in Birdland
    Basie blew, Blakey too, where?
    Down in Birdland
    Cannonball played that hall there
    Down in Birdland
    Yeah
    There may never be nothin' such as that
    No mo', No mo'
    Down in Birdland, that's where it was at
    I know, I know
    Back in them days bop was ridin' high
    Hello, goodbye!
    How well those cats remember
    Their first Birdland gig
    To play in Birdland is an honor we still dig
    Yeah that club was like
    In another world, sure enough
    Yeah, baby
    All o' the cats had the cookin' on
    People just sat an' they was steady lookin' on
    Then Bird, he came 'n spread the word
    Birdland
    Yes, indeed, he did
    Yes, indeed, he did
    Yes, indeed, he did

    Birdland
    Yes, indeed, he really did
    Charlie Parker played in Birdland
    Bird named it, Bird made it, Bird heard it, then played it
    Well-stated! Birdland
    It happened down in Birdland
    Everybody dug that beat
    Everybody stomped their feet
    Everybody digs be-bop
