WEIRD AL YANKOVIC lyrics - Introduction (Peter And The Wolf)

Hello boys and girls

This is a story that I like to call "Peter And The Wolf"

Are you sitting comfortably?

Are you?!?!?

Good, then let's begin



Each character is represented by a different instrument of the synthesized orchestra

For instance, the part of Billy the Bird is played 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

He, he's represented by a clarinet



The part of the Grandfather will be played by Don Amiche

He, what, he can't make it?

Oh, okay, um, hm, in that case, the part of the Grandfather will be played by a bassoon



Three French horns play the part of, um, three French horns, uh

(The wolf, it's the wolf)

Right, the wolf, Seymore the Wolf



The kettle drum and bass drum represent the sub machine gun fire of the hunters

And, of course, as always, the part of Bob the Janitor is played by the accordion

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
