To
assist his radio listeners in understanding his words and music, Dr. Hepcat
wrote and published his own dictionary, The Jives of Dr. Hepcat, which has
become a collector's item among folklorists and fans. This is how Dr. Hepcat
would describe his intentions to get a job, avoid the police, earn some money,
get his hair straightened, buy some shoes, drive down the street, and sweet
talk a good-looking woman: "If I had a pony to ride, I'd domino the
nabbers, cop some presidents, gas my moss, and maybe get togged with some
beastly ground smashers. Then I'd mellow to puff down the stroll where I'd
motivate my piecechopper to latch onto a fly delosis."
