The attached audio clip is a spontaneous rap about the subject of spontaneity.  It's a value of mine.  Check out what I have to say.

Lyrics of The Darktown Strutters' Ball

Verse One

I've got some good news, Honey, An invitation to the Darktown Ball. It's a very swell affair.  All the "high-browns" will be there.  I'll wear my high silk hat and a frock tail coat.  You wear your Paris gown and your new silk shawl.  There ain't no doubt about it, Babe, We'll be the best dressed in the hall.

Chorus;

I'll be down to get you in a taxi Honey.  You better be ready about half past eight.  Now dearie don't be late.  I want to be there when that band starts playing.  Remember when we get there honey, two steps we're going to have 'em all.  Goin' to dance out both my shoes; when they play those "Jelly Roll Blues"  Tomorrow night at the Darktown Strutters' Ball.
