Wolf Notes

Written by：Matthew Friedberger

Pick up your trumpet

Your plastic pretend trumpet

Blow me your horn today

Pick up your tambourine

Your fisher price my first tamborine

Jingle and jangle today

Plug in your keyboard

Your symphonic sound samba samsung

Pick out a tune today

Turn off your radio

Shut away your stereo

Put away your discman

And play me a tune today

I rub the peg-paste and the chalk in

Scrape and the wolf-notes start to grrr

I did a donkey's back with fixed frog

And I martellato the slur

Through an open wound you watch the guts go

Cut cross the cat line thick and thin

All overspun and resigned-up a slow stick trills me trills me

She varnished all around her F-holes

Blue tape take aim but the arms are too low

Legato look and sawing detache

But you want to bust your bow

Bow down and wipe off snap the case closed

Madame professor says well done

But an electric stroboscopic frequency meter'd say otherwise

I scratch harmonicas in half-position

I pinch my e-string rat-a-tat

I double stop on any open string

Screw my G on up to be flat
