Wow Longy Lab

I'm at the bistro
[I don't see you here dawg!]
tryna eat a sandwich with my cello
stuntin for this bad-pitch soprano
until she got all emo
about the sounds of the oboe in the Tombeau de Couperin.
So I ran, up to room ten
about to get intimate with Beethoven
then suddenly
I hear a screech
like, murderin a violin violently
what could it be?
this is longy

I just wanna play my cello
and practice my arpeggios
like F major chord
a minor chord
C major chord
e minor chord
that spells face

Like, in ya face
now get this noise pollution, out of my practice space
this is the Longy School of Music of Bard College
I said, the Longy School [incoherent gibberish] Bard College
It has a nice ring to it don't it?
[Uh, actually. That's quite a mouthful]

Wow Longy Lab

I'm pretty much awesome at music theory
can you feel me?
I can, maneuver around parallel fifths like I'm parallel parking on fifth avenue
in the afternoon
and I'm successful in one swift move
[Ooh how impressive!]
I can, play a concerto like my name is Yo Yo
[Show off]
Yo Ma's lookin fine
she got it goin on
she funds me on the patreon
snaps me on the instagram
hashtag #maestro, #solo
[solo!]

Don't let me get carried away
I'll stick to what I'm sayin'
I'll keep it germane
like Jermaine Jackson
and German strum und drung
it's all about the dram'
what's that pitched drum?
a timpani?
what can it be?
this isn't music
do they even practice?
I don't understand this
this isn't music
this is not music
