I Hate Music by Leonard Bernstein Lyrics

I hate music, but I like to sing
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la!
But that's not music!
Not what I call music, no sir!

Music is a lot of men with a lot of tails
Making lots of noise like a lot of females
Music is a lot of folks in a big dark hall
Where they really don't want to be at all
With a lot of chairs
And a lot of heirs
And a lot of furs and diamonds!
Music is silly

I hate music, but I like to sing
