TUBA TERRY IN TUCKER TOWN

Terry played the tuba in parades in Tucker Town,
Every holiday, he'd parade uptown to down,
Back aches made Terry moan,
So, he switched to Sousaphone,
Now, Terry marches pain free, from Main Street down to Brown.

HARRY PLAYED 13 HOLE HARMONY

Harry didn't like playing harmony, but that's all they'd let him do,
Although, Harry was acclaimed at playing the 13 hole kazoo, 
Melody was for the 1st strings,
Harmony for the other things,
So Harry organized a union, now melody he plays too.

JEFFREY AND HIS CORNET

Jeff got out his Vaseline, to grease his cornet slide,
Jeff used the slide to stay in tune, so he could blow with pride,
Jeff was so proud to be 1st chair,
He fingered every note with care,
Jeff never have a girlfriend, for his cornet was his bride.

MY SWEATY CORNET

It seemed like for my old cornet, all the notes did melt,
For steaming hot was parade day, and that my cornet felt,
My lips got drip, dry parched, 
The notes got damaged as we marched,
When the parade was finally done, I had a root beer belt.

HOW I BECAME A ONE MAN BAND



I went out back of the high school to march with the dress band,
I was the only one there, save for the bear eating a hand,
I forgot my bear mace,
So I froze in place,
When the bear turned away, I raned.

THE BOYS OF HUMMER

The Boys of Hummer was a male humming choir,
They entertained when the need was dire,
When a wedding or parade came along,
They would hum us an old song,
Then, they got old and had to retire.

I WENT TO THE MOON TO PRACTICE

I went to the moon where I could find a great vacant land,
Where the neighbors couldn't complain when I pretend I'm in band,
Where I can make a big tone,
On my terror trombone,
And, the police don't take me off to be canned.
