ONLY MUSIC CAN

ONLY MUSIC CAN

Music persuades it invades and evades…
Comes out in the open and reaches the shades

The tempo enthuses and also confuses…
Amuses and uses it wins and it loses

Music brings tears and encompasses fears
Continues for years and caresses our ears

Several octaves with so many notes
It acts like a medicine or some antidote

Sounds can be gentle while others are loud
To please a small audience or festival crowd

Give me percussion some brass and some strings
Take me to heaven on musical wings

Play me a kettle drum with trumpets and brass
Army’s with banners defending their class

Brass bands and Silver bands beautiful sound
Marchers with Xylophones in our football ground

Jazz singers Blues singers Opera and Pop
Country and Rappers with Gospel and Hop

Music to my ears music to yours
Beatles and Hollies Kinks and the Doors

Listen to everything then try to play
And you will have music to play every day
