Lyrics
(parody of "
Peter And The Wolf" by Sergei Prokofiev)
Hello, Boys and Girls. This is a story that I like to call,"
Peter and the Wolf". Are you sittingcomfortably? ARE YOU!? Good, then let's begin ...
Each character is represented by a different instrument of thesynthesized orchestra. For instance, the part of Billy the Bird isplayed by a flute, like this ...
The part of Bruce the Duck is played by an oboe ...
Louie the Cat is a clarinet.
All right, he's not *really* a clarinet - he's just - you know,h-he's represented by a clarinet ...
The part of the Grandfather will be played by Don Amiche.
He - ... What ? ... Can't make it ? ...
Oh. <huh> Okay, um, hmm, in that case,the part of the Grandfather will be played by <huh> a bassoon ...
Three French horns play the part of ... uhm ...three French horns ... uh ... (
The Wolf! It's the Wolf!)
Right ! The Wolf. Seymour the Wolf ...
The kettle drum and bass drum represent the sub-machine-gun fire of thehunters ...
And, of course, as always, the part of Bob the Janitor is played by theaccordion ...
Well, that's it for the introductions. And now, the story ...A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away ... uh, ... Oh, excuse me ...sallysally@usa.net
