Here is my version of a song by Bach
He talked the talk and he walked the walk
Some notes are flats, but there are sharps
And tubular bells and also harps

Analysis of The Virgin Mary with Saints Thomas Aquinas and Paul
by Bernardo Daddi, in Florence, Italy, 1335
It’s another painting with the Virgin Mary
And she’s with two Saints, and one is hairy
It’s done very well, this fact is true
And the Virgin Mary is wearing blue
Each of them have different poses
I wonder how they feel when the panel closes?
The Virgin Mary is looking down
And everyone’s skin is very brown
The atmosphere is very static
The scaling is definitely hieratic
The saints appear to be litigious
The theme of this painting is quite religious
The following is a small sampling of available Rock Band names:

9. Five Rude Dudes
10. Next Time Let’s Take The Stairs
Do you know the name of this painting?
I will give you a hint
It was done by a Master Artist
Using a woodblock print
He changed his address 100 times
He was constantly on the move
He would fill each house with all of his drawings
And they would eventually have to move
I think that he is just fantastic
His work, it has no fear
To me it almost seems elastic
For more info click here:
It’s Hokusai’s “The Great Wave of Kanagawa”
I think that it’s just great
He lived in Japan in the Edo Period
Which ended in 1868
Here is a little ditty
That I think is almost heavenly
I think it’s very witty
And it premiered in 1870
It was written Peter Ilyad T.
Whose birthday is May 7th
It is 600 bars long, you see
And here are the first eleven
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 him to hide
The chaos and the mayhem starts
When William looks outside
He says “There’s a Gremlin on the wing
And he’s pulling on the wires!”
The attendant says “It’s probably nothing.
Maybe you’re just too tired.”
“You’re right” he says while smiling
“I probably need some sleep
My behavior has become beguiling
Frow now on not a peep”
His wife then gives him a sleeping pill
And tells him to close his eyes
Pretty soon we will be in Jacksonville
As fast as this plane flies
She calms him with a gentle touch
As the passengers get nervous
One man who has had too much
Says loudly “I Need Service!”
Then William starts to twitch and panic
And needs to be restrained
His behaviour becomes almost manic
Some might even say insane
He grabs a gun from a sleeping cop
Who onced lived near the Kremlin
And then we hear a very loud pop
As he shoots wildly at the Gremlin
And when the plane limps back to ground
And to the hospital William is headed
Not one passenger makes a sound
Because the plane is completely shredded
When I was just a little boy
I seldom was alone
My life was full of fun and joy
While watching the Twilight Zone
There was a certain episode
About a monster and a rummy
A telikenetic six-year old
That was played by young Bill Mumy
Bill Mumy was just six years old
With a very famous face
He once was up for a Golden Globe
From his work in Lost In Space
When Dan Hollis has a birthday
He drinks up all the brandy
And Billy says “Happy Earth Day
Wouldn’t a trip be just dandy?”
Allow me to give you a present
On this, the day you were born
And please say hello to the pheasant
I’m going to wish you into the corn
And Aunt Amy just sits quiet
She really has no choice
Why should she even try it?
Bill Mumy took her voice
In earlier days she sang
Her voice went on and on
But now she just has hunger pangs
And her once strong voice is gone
Their life is hard, without a doubt
They each have no control
If anyone decides to pout
They’re turned into a troll
Well I digress, that isn’t true
I’ll put it back in the box
But if Bill Mumy doesn’t like you
He can turn you into a Jack-In-The-Box
I know this because I saw it
That is exactly what happened to Dan
Perry Como and booze made him crazy
And now he lives his days in a can
And he’s been living there since that day
With his head at the end of a spring
And his best friend is a lump of clay
And some other inanimate thing
But he still pops up from time to time
And stares right at the easel
While Bill Mumy sings that familiar rhyme
Pop Goes The Weasel
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It’s_a_Good_Life_(The_Twilight_Zone)
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
And get to work by ferry
Somehow I’ve gotten a bit off track
I do that from time to time
But eventually I find my way back
And continue with my rhyme
Now I remember of what I spoke
I was talking about classical composers
I love them all, and that’s no joke
As long as they’re not a poser
Sometimes Ludwig is just too much
And Brahms gets hard to Handl
Felix Mendelssohn has just the touch
He’s great at night by candle
Hector Berlioz was very peppy
And so was Antonio Vivaldi
Verdi’s first name was Giuseppe
And Rachmaninoff was a baldy
But now I’m afraid I have to leave
It’s almost time for class
But I’ll be back, you best believe
And give this another pass
