I’m bringing that gold era back
with a style a little more advanced than the first
Blackcurrent Jazz album
when I gave you “2 Long” and “Hit Me”
“Keeping it Classic”, “Tangible”, “Turntables Hate Me”
“Simply 2
Complicated”, that was nice
and “don’t “Roll the Dice” if you can’t pay the price
“The Music”, “What You Saying Girl?” and “Confused?
“Prediction”, “It Still Rocks”, too many to choose
the album came to you in fine detail
so when you want another one, ask for “D-D-L”
I was such a young kid but I could so it so well
and the album so ****,
it would simply outsell all the others from before like “Classic”, “Heartfelt”
“One Another”, “When Love is Breaking Down” did well
but Blackcurrent Jazz was something so new
so I had to come back and bring you part two

It’s many years later but I’m still in the mix
and I’m still down with Parris and I’m still down with Stixx
still down with Duke and I roll with my Cuz
and I’m still down with jazz cos with jazz it’s a love
I love Bill Evans, so ****
and I’m certain that I love Milt Jackson and I love Gary Burton
and I love Cal Tjader and Herbie Hancock
Earl Hines, Sonny Rollins and Thelonious Monk

Bob James, Freddie Hubbard and Charlie Byrd too
Ron Carter, Charlie Mingus and the MJQ
Dave Brubeck plus John Coltrane
Miles Davis, Lionel Hampton, there’s too many names
I’m just trying to keep the legacy alive
it never dies cos we’re here to revive
some people drop pop records whereas
I’m here it make it last with the Blackcurrent Jazz
