VERSATILE MUSIC MAN

My dad is a versatile music man
If anyone can play it then he can
He’s been seen playing the cello
In a hotel lounge in Portabello
Playing inprov jazz on tenor sax
For beer money on a street in Halifax
Even making a tune on a synthesizer
While drinking Irn bru and tizer
He’s very often been known to jam
In a seedy club in Amsterdam
Bash a tune out on the old Joanna
Down by the beach in copacabana
And strumming on guitar or banjo
For the business men of Tokyo
He’ll get a note out of a flugel horn
On the icy slopes of the Matterhorn
He’ll play anything from harmonica
To the clarinet euphonium or tuba
Double base trumpet or trombone
Triangle glockenspiel or xylophone
But my dad the versatile music man
Will never play the piano accordion
