 * Snuffle-Upagus Brown as Rowlf the Dog

Lyrics
Snuffle-Upagus Brown: (spoken) Ah, Beethoven. One of the great composers of all time. Ludwig van Beethoven. This little melody called "Fur Elise". I don't know who you wrote it fur. But one of the things I've always wondered about this song. I often wondered how long am I supposed to play this part of it before I come to the part that goes like this? But one of the neat things about Beethoven if you think about it, let me tell you about it. Listen to this. (singing) One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. All he had was Eight little notes Just eight little notes But oh What Mister B did with Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do Though All he used were Eight little notes Just eight count 'em Eight like these He'd mix and match And hatch a batch Of catchy melodies Now I could take Two notes And come up with Nothing of note Mr. B took a G And a flattened E And wrote Fantastic! Though All he had was Eight little notes Just eight little notes Like these Which goes to show That one man's scale Is another man's Symphonies. Oh, yeah! Yet all he had was Eight little notes Just eight little notes Just eight But he wrote nine Symphonies And also some great Quartets quintets Fugues & Cantatas Plus an opera and A few cantatas Using only Eight little notes In a row Do Re Me Fa Sol La Ti Do. Do Ti La Sol Fa Me Re Do.
