"Mobity Mosley's Months" is a song performed by Mobity Mosley on the album The Year of Roosevelt Franklin. He has a special way of singing about all twelve months of the year: He sings a sort of scat or vocal jazz phrase that begins with "Mobity mo" and ends with a word that starts with "m", and rhymes with either the name of the month, or its number. Sometimes the word is real ("Mary" rhymes with January), and sometimes it's a nonsense word ("Mive" rhymes with "five", which is the month of May). At the end of the song, he sings all twelve months straight through.
