orchestra began to play
with a mighty bang
percussionist got carried away
cymbals all went clang
noise was imminence
flutists did all greave
violins sat on the fence
oboist went too thieve
french horns got horny
clarinets did all blow
know this sounds corny
but this poem must flow
bassoons played by baboons
plus one single piccolo
some baboons played the spoons
piccolo was played by Niccolo
it's the worst orchestra
that I've ever seen
it was a real torture
now i'm off to see Kean*
* English actor noted for his portrayals of Shakespeare's great tragic characters (1789-1833)
