[Lyric] Franz Liszt the Famous Pianist (Beethoven's Wig)

Franz Liszt, the famous pianist
They say his piano skill was unsurpassed
And no one else could play as fast as
Franz Liszt, the famous pianist
And everyone who saw him all agreed
No one could match his finger speed

Yes Franz Liszt, the famous pianist
Could play the minute waltz so quickly that
He’d end in thirty seconds flat
Yes Franz Liszt, the famous pianist
The crowds all cheered when he picked up the pace
His fingers pounding out the pace
His hair all flying in his face
A wild goose upon a chase
’Cause every concert was a race
And Franz Liszt always won first place


He could play the piano fastеr
Than the fastest piano master
Fastеr than Chopin or Bach
Or Haydn, Handel, or Bartok
Faster than Franck or Puccini
Or Beethoven, or Rossini
Or Johann or Ricard Strauss
Or Clara Schumann or her spouse

Faster than Rachmaninov
Or even Rimsky-Korsakov
Or Tchaikovsky or Vivaldi

Or Mozart, Berg, or Brahms
Or Byrd or Bellini, or Boccherini
Or Paganini or Cherubini
Wagner, Verdi, Wolf, Weil, Vaughn
Scarlatti, Stravinsky, Mussorgsky
Oh my gosh, he was fast!

That’s Franz Liszt!
