"Now here's a little story 'bout a Freshman Seminar
in the form of a song on which I've worked so long and hard.
I wanted y'all to hear it--so here it go
with Sledola da Gamba and this whacky Whangjo...
...accompaniment, that is, stringed instruments, homemade...
Well, throughout the semester we've been learnin' lots of things,
building instruments like winds, building instruments with strings;
made of stuff like sleds and bottles of Snapple,
the crazy things you think of as a student at Chapel...
...Hill, that is, the southern part of heaven, UNC...
So thanks to Mr. Wissick and Dr. McNeil,
we've combined knowledge from two very different fields--
It wasn't always easy but at least we all had fun,
and with that said I guess that I'm done...
Y'all come back next year now, ya hear?"
