Chopin

Love soft music on a warm summer's night A Piano Sonata by that Chopin dude Nothing can turn my crank more than Fredéric Sure puts this guy in a romantic mood Surprised with my knowledge of the classics? Fred and I go a very long way back Grew up together, he was my very first buddy Actually stole my sweet girlie, fancy that Helped him write some mazurkas and études Never gave me credit, whatta bum Attempted to expose him but no one listened Of course no one listened, that's dumb Whatta big snot, this so called music genius Thought the world revolved around him Got some news, this is going to shatter his image He was nothing but a country bumpkin I know, I know, that's not well known fact He paid people to keep it hush hush So now you all know the rest of this story Old Freddie turned out to be a lush Sorry bout this, all you fans of the classics This was all just in fun I declare Was never a good friend of old Freddie boy Still maintain, I never got my share
