Well you Needn’t – Cannonball Adderley (lyrics: Thelonious Monk)
*
You’re talkin’ so sweet well you needn’t
You say you won’t cheat well you needn’t
You’re tappin’ your feet well you needn’t
It’s over now, it’s over now
You say you won’t cheat well you needn’t
You’re tappin’ your feet well you needn’t
It’s over now, it’s over now
*
You’re dressin’ with class well you needn’t
You’re holdin’ your sass well you needn’t
You think you’re a gas well you needn’t
It’s over now, it’s over now
You’re holdin’ your sass well you needn’t
You think you’re a gas well you needn’t
It’s over now, it’s over now
*
It’s over now, it’s over now
You’ve had your fun, so take a bow
You oughta know, you lost the glow, the beat is slow, the shadows grow,
the lights are low, it’s time to go, let’s close the show down
You oughta know, you lost the glow, the beat is slow, the shadows grow,
the lights are low, it’s time to go, let’s close the show down
*
(Oh) You’re taking off weight well you needn’t
You’re looking just great well you needn’t
You’re settin’ the bait well you needn’t
It’s over now, it’s over now
You’re looking just great well you needn’t
You’re settin’ the bait well you needn’t
It’s over now, it’s over now
*
Scat…
You play enough game, well you needn’t
Scat…
You play enough game, well you needn’t
It’s more of the same, well you needn’t
You’re coming off lame, ell you needn’t
It’s over now, it’s over now
It’s over now, it’s over now
*
You’re bending my ear Well you needn’t
You’re bending my ear Well you needn’t
You’re calling me dear Well you needn’t
You’re acting sincere Well you needn’t
It’s over now, it’s over now
You’re acting sincere Well you needn’t
It’s over now, it’s over now
*
It’s over now, it’s over now
Don’t wanna see Don’t need a row
You had you’re day Your matinee
You had to stray You know they say
You gonna play You gotta face
So find a way out
It’s over now, it’s over now
Don’t wanna see Don’t need a row
You had you’re day Your matinee
You had to stray You know they say
You gonna play You gotta face
So find a way out
*
You say that you try Well you needn’t
You say that you try Well you needn’t
You say you won’t lie Well you needn’t
You’re starting to cry Well you needn’t
It’s over now It’s over now
You’re starting to cry Well you needn’t
It’s over now It’s over now
*
(repeat all then…)
(repeat all then…)
*
It’s over now,
it’s over now
It’s over now,
it’s over now
It’s over now, it’s over!
It’s over now, it’s over!

The lyric was written by Mike Ferro, please correct. Jamie had nothing to do with it. Carmen’s version is the best but she did not write it!
Thanks, il Will see how to change that
Cool! Best, Chappell Holt
Hi, it is written by Thelonius Monk. Years and years ago…
Thanks for the catch!
