Beethoven Day Clark Gesner

[SCHROEDER]
Call the principal
And hand him the news
We've got a holiday
That he can't refuse
A day of harmony
A day of music:
Beethoven's birthday!

[SALLY]
Beethoven Day?

[SCHROEDER]
A reverential mission

[LINUS]
Beethoven Day?

[SCHROEDER]
The hope of each musician
No more am I the only guy
To stand up and say:

Hooray, Beethoven
Hooray!
