Another Song for My Fans
Here is a little ditty I wrote When I was sailing on my boat It’s written in G-Minor, which has 2 flats Just like my bicycle and both of my hats (It sounds almost like the Intro to Mozart’s 4oth Symphony)
The Great Wave

A Ditty for the City

A Song From Me to You
It’s been a while since I posted here And it’s got me in a tizzy It isn’t that I don’t still care It’s just that I’ve been busy I’ve been so busy lately composing Well that’s not entirely true I’ve tried my hand at words of prosing But it usually makes me blue Sometimes I can be creative and witty It […]

Nightmare at 20,000 Feet
William Shatner is flying on a jet And he is out of work It’s stormy out and it’s quite wet But he’s not Captain Kirk He’s travelling with his trophy wife Who tells him not to smoke She’s known him almost all his life And thinks he’s a splendid bloke But soon after the plane departs And there’s nowhere for […]

Classical Composers Whom I Have Admired
Ludwig’s music is incredible And Wolfgang’s never missed Franz’s music is almost edible Both of them, Schubert and Lizst Peter Ilyad’s music is capricious And hardly ever arbitrary Johan Sebastian still can reach us Just ask my cousin Larry To tell the truth, I have three cousins But not one is named Larry They spend the summer in the Hamptons […]
