The Sound of Music

there is no accounting for taste  
be it movies, books and music  
individual tastes vary so much  
“the human centipede” to “Frozen”  
Shakespeare to Katie Price  
Ella Fitsgerald to Motorhead  
Even countries have their own tastes  
Cities have their own flavours  
A case in point:  

JERICHO  
 
The walls of Jericho crumbled  
To the sound of trumpets and horns  
God being the big band leader  
Maybe a bit heavy of the horns section  
Never the less it was Swinging Katz  
I find it hard to understand a city  
That has no appreciation of Jazz  
And deserved to be invaded and sacked  
Just sayin
