Introduction lyrics

(parody of `Peter And The Wolf` by Sergei Prokofiev)

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,
h-he`s represented by a clarinet ...

The part of the Grandfather will be played by Don Amiche.
He - ... What ? ... Can`t make it ? ...
Oh. Okay, um, hmm, in that case,
the part of the Grandfather will be played by a bassoon ...

Three French horns play the part of ... uhm ...
three French horns ... uh ... (The Wolf! It`s the Wolf!)
Right ! The Wolf. Seymour 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 ...
