Scales And Arpeggios sing and play along

Ev'ry truly cultured music student knows you must learn your scales and your arpeggios.

Bring the music ringing from your chest and not your nose while you sing your scales and your arpeggios.

If you're faithful to your daily practicing,

you will find your progress is encouraging.

Do mi so mi do mi so mi fa la so it goes,

when you do the scales and your arpeggios.

Do mi so do, do so mi do.

Do mi so do, do so mi do.

Though at first it seems as though it doesn't show,

like a tree, ability will bloom and grow.

If you're smart you'll learn by heart what ev'ry artist knows:

you must sing your scales and your arpeggios.
