What That Is Songtext
von Screamin’ Jay Hawkins

What I see
Must be
Now!

To was or not to happen
In the middle of nineteen-hundred and yesterday

Shut your mouth! [unintelligible grunting]
What′d you say? [unintelligible grunting]
Now!

There's a sack hanging in your head with your brains in it eating scalp chop suey, corroded cuits, and bat′s-knees soup, in a gas mask!

What that is!
What that ain't!
Now!


Give me that chicken
'Cause I′m waiting to see if I′m gonna change my mind

What that is!
What that ain't!
What that could be before it ain′t was!
Yesteryear's coming back tomorrow!
This is now!
What that is, I say!
What that is!
What that is!
What that is!
What that is!
What that is!
What that is!
What that is!
