'Jazz Baby' Murray Lachlan Young's Jazz inspired poem

Ahead of this weekend's Cheltenham Jazz Festival here is Murray's Jazz inspired poem

Ahead of 6 music decamping to this weekend's Cheltenham Jazz Festival, here is Murray Lachlan Young's Jazz inspired poem about just how jazzy 6 Music really is.

"Take a look around at 6 and what do you see
Beyond the psychedelia, the punk and Indie

6 is pretty jazzy and the jazz can be fun
See the swinging daddies jumping three to the one

With a Flip fliddly floo bap a flip flop flack
It’s the Cider drinking Daddy yeah its Jazzy La Mac

Then the heavy hitting Gideon a go man go!
It’s the coolest jazzy Daddy he’s the Coe, Coe, Coe!

Then a bing biddly bang biddly burn, burn, burn!
It’s the jazzadelic Cerys and the turn Lavern

With a blay diddly, blay diddly see bap tweek
It’s the Rhythm rockin Raddy and the Mac of the freak

Hanging at the water cooler rap-round shades
Jumpin to the jazzy jazz the jazz just made

With a Zoog Ziddley zey zah, a zoo zah zeen
It’s a six aphonic freakathonic be bop scene

With a six-skiddly soo wap a soo sah say
It’s the heavy, heavy polo neck and jazzy beret

Keaveny, Keaveny, Keaveny, Keaveny man he just couldn’t stay
Yeah he’s busy being jazzy on his jazz holiday

And Nemone in the pocket baby holding it down
She’s a rockin to the rhythm of the six jazz sound

With a wee widdly wee whe see bop mix
Scaddly daddly boddly hoddly etc etc six

And that’s pretty Jazzy"
