[Lyric] Melomania (Tune Hawker)

[VERSE 1]
You know the right set of frequencies
Can cause a person to get weak in the knees
The people have composure but then they lose it
As soon as they hear that music

[VERSE 2]
The church thought the flat five sounded evil
So they banned it, and called it the devil’s interval
Its bad reputation has diminished over time
But back then it made them lose their minds

[REFRAIN 1]
One thing that always amazes me
How music makes us go crazy

[SOLO 1: CLARINET]

[SOLO 2: PIANO]

[SOLO 3: SCATTING]
[VERSE 3]
They really ate it up in the romantic period
Fans who were crazy for Franz were myriad
They used to call it “Lisztomania”
The music made their brains fall out of their crania

[VERSE 4]
Most people have a sense of “Rite” and wrong
But some folks really lost it for Stravinsky’s song
The crowd was wound up like a spring
And the piece was their reason for rioting

[REFRAIN 2]
One thing that always amazes me
How music makes us go crazy

[REFRAIN 3]
They really lose it
People go crazy for music
