LYRICS:
Lennie Bernstein wants to do Boulez,
No no, Stockhausen too?
No no, Lennie, no you can't,
Why must you be so damn avant?
Yes, that's what I said: Stockhausen too.
And just to make the matter worse,
Old Igor now sets Robert's verse,
What a silly thing to do!
How very silly can you get?
I'm so sick of Robert's verse,
But Igor now sets
Robert's most medieval verse,
Poor young Bobby's verse.
Well, it's true that Isaac Stern's
New disc to Stephen Foster turns,
But this barely compensates
For George and Rudi's latest dates.
Oh, we're all uncommercial here,
Our sales get worse from year to year.
From year to year our sales get worse,
and that's the sober message of our verse:
