Mumbles Oscar Peterson Trio w. Clark Terry: Oscar Peterson (piano), Ray Brown (bass), Ed Thigpen (drums), Clark Terry (vocals). Helsinki, Finland, March 23, 1965.
I love this tune because it exemplifies one of the principles of music: music is a language of its own. Lyrics can help the music tell a story, but you can just as easily do it without words.
I remember Pookie singing this on The Soupy Sales Show.

This makes me happy everytime.

Real jazz
There are many methods to communicating effectively....

Where'd he learn to sing like that? At his speech class?
Words are futile...

Top-class stuff! However, the singer should have had some elocution lessons before singing this song in public. 🤣

Behind the comedy he happens to be a great singer into the bargain.
