Berlin: I Love a Piano |
| As a child I went wild when a band played |
| How I ran to the man when his hand swayed |
| Clarinets were my pets, and a slide trombone I thought was simply |
| Divine |
| But today when they play I could hiss them |
| Ev’ry bar is a jar to my system |
| But there’s one musical instrument that I call mine |
| I love a piano, I love a piano |
| I love to hear somebody play |
| Upon a piano, a grand piano |
| It simply carries me away |
| I know a fine way to treat a steinway |
| I love to run my fingers o’er the keys, the ivories |
| And with the pedal I love to meddle |
| When padarewski comes this way |
| I’m so delighted if I’m invited |
| To hear that long haired genius play |
| So you can keep your fiddle and your bow |
| Give me a p-i-a-n-o, oh, oh |
| I love to stop right beside an upright |
| Or a high toned baby grand |
| When a green tetrazine starts to warble |
| I grow cold as an old piece of marble |
| I allude to the crude little party singer who don’t know when to pause |
| At her best I detest the soprano |
| But I run to the one at the piano |
| I always love the accomp’niment and that’s because |
