Trombone Please -- More silliness today. When my sister was little, she and her friend Alexis formed a band with my uncle (whose work was recently featured on this podcast) called The Squishy Lagosis. They recorded only one song together, Please Trombone. Since the original included no trombone I've added snippets from a recording of The Blue Bells of Scotland, the ultimate trombone show-off piece.

Please Trombone lyrics:
Please trombone, please trombone,
     Don't get up my nose.
Please trombone, please trombone,
     Don't get up my nose.
Well you can shake and shimmy and rattle your toes,
     But don't get up my nose.
Oh my!

Please repelican, please repelican,
     Don't get up my nose.
Please repelican, please repelican,
     Don't get up my nose.
Well you can drink dishwater and dance with an otter,
     But don't get up my nose.
Oh my!
