From the recording Nowever
The title is named after two nicknames for Bella and Roger but the lyric content is a mix of: the verse being about aspects of music performance + the scat chorus flings off phrases about various aspects in my life like work, cars, food, money... The music does more of the talking as it's a pretty funky blues driven song.
Lyrics
Hey, alright. Hold on tight.
Feeling like a backdrop, hanging ‘round the scene.
Waiting on the side line, waiting to play.
Oh in the meantime, here on the stage,
Waiting for moments,
Let me hear you say:
“Beat, bottle ‘n’ buy,
Bank, beddle ‘n’ bay,
Beep ‘n’ Bella”
Hear me say:
“Red, ridin’ ‘n’ Rodge,
Repeatin’ ‘n’ rain,
Reekin’ around…
It’s beepin’ better this way.
