Music


 

By the drum major's count, four in all,

on the down beat of four is where I fall.

Four beats, four measure phrases

black seats and brown leather cases.

Four whole years to figure it out,

senior year and we have it all now.

To tryouts, contests, competition

first chair, first place, tradition.

Graduation, congratulations

where to go, what are your ambitions?
