we all have heard that lilting tune
"the day the music died"
but we all know that's not the case
let's put all that aside
let''s go to the beginning
where the whole thing was unlatched
discover now, just what went on
the day the music hatched
it might have been the babble
of a lovely little brook
and chattering of animals
that came to take a look
in nature, there are rhythms
and a symphony of sound
and mankind cocked an ear
whenever they would come around
for the nature's sound was soothing
and the rhythms rocked their bones
like the fire that man discovered
taken back into their homes
then the replication started
and its energy was snatched
and yes, mankind hit the jackpot
on the day the music hatched
