Lyrics James Jamerson Used One Finger - Vulfmon feat. Vulf

James Jamerson used one finger
John McEnroe used a Dunlop
He used a Dunlop Revelation 200G
Where are your tools, man?
These are my tools
They're crappy student model tools, and I play better than you

James Jamerson used one finger
And you point, you point at what you want
I'll get, I'll have, I'll go with
Where are you going?

I'm not an angry person, and neither was Jerry Salinger
James Jamerson used one finger, is that true?
Yes, it's true, and how about you, are you perfect?
Bob Babbitt used two fingers
Jerry Jemmott used two fingers and dug in like a cleat
Tools, man

Where are your tools?
Feist sang through an amp
Prince wired a snake in every room
Sampras had that Wilson
Sampras had that ugly Wilson Pro Staff 95
Go hope
Go hope that comes back
Go hope those colors come back

Subcamp, Bandstack, Faceschnook, Class act
All just tools, man
Buy an island in Hawaii with your SaaS money
You won't get a rise out of me
James Jamerson, on the other hand, used one finger
Basso profondo on ancient LaBellas
Plucking wire on the Golden Gate Bridge
Bach for dead strings

Fugues for the masses
Bringing joy to you and your machatonim
You licked the toad, meanwhile
James Jamerson used only one finger
Carol Kaye used a pick, and all bob der roads lead to bivouac
Microdosing matzo meal under a bridge just to get an edge
Use short words
Use short German words

Don't show off
Play fast, make it groove, repeat these bromides
Get on your knees and praise the lowly potato
Get on your knees and praise the Central Coast
Get on your knees and praise Bob Noyce
Get on your knees and praise commercial air travel
Say something good and move on
Company smile with William F. Buckley will protect you

Rick Rubin is hitting on your girlfriend
Campaign for your burger stand
Ground beef, so you don't have to chew
If you don't believe me or don't get it
I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry
Lalah Hathaway, sang two notes
James Jamerson used one finger
Walter Murch stood before Final Cut 7

James Jamerson used one finger
Donald Hall wrote 300 drafts
James Jamerson used one finger
Nile Rogers played nines low
James Jamerson used one finger
Call out the phonies
You are doing the real thing
Reject drab

Wear bright colors and play fast
Kubrick and the Arriflex
Chopin and the Playel
Wilt wore Chucks
Sinatra, Sony
Rainey, LaBellas
Babbitt, LaBellas
Benson, Thomastiks

Kaye, LaBellas
Call out the phonies
Reject drab
Know your tools
Say something good and move on
James Jamerson used one finger
I kinda like that
Were you able to follow that?
No
