Decomposing Composers (Monty Python Sings) - Monty Python[00:00:00]
Beethoven's gone[00:00:14]
But his music lives on[00:00:15]
And Mozart don't go shopping no more[00:00:17]
You'll never meet Liszt or Brahms again[00:00:20]
And Elgar doesn't answer the door[00:00:24]
Schubert and Chopin used to chuckle and laugh[00:00:27]
Whilst composing a long symphony[00:00:31]
But one hundred and fifty years later[00:00:34]
There's very little of them left to see[00:00:37]
They're decomposing composers[00:00:41]
There's nothing much anyone can do[00:00:44]
You can still hear Beethoven[00:00:48]
But Beethoven cannot hear you[00:00:51]
Handel and Haydn and Rachmaninov[00:01:10]
Enjoyed a nice drink with their meal[00:01:13]
But nowadays[00:01:17]
No one will serve them[00:01:18]
And their gravy is left to congeal[00:01:21]
Verdi and Wagner delighted the crowds[00:01:25]
With their highly original sound[00:01:28]
The pianos they played are still working[00:01:32]
But they're both six feet underground[00:01:36]
They're decomposing composers[00:01:40]
There's less of them every year[00:01:43]
You can say what you like to Debussy[00:01:47]
But there's not much of him left to hear[00:01:51]
Claude Achille Debussy Died 1918[00:01:55]
Christophe Willebald Gluck Died 1787[00:02:01]
Carl Maria von Weber[00:02:07]

Still alive 1863 not still alive 1864[00:02:17]
Modeste Mussorgsky 1880 going to parties[00:02:24]
No fun anymore 1891[00:02:29]
Johan Nepomuk Hummel[00:02:32]
Chatting away nineteen to the dozen[00:02:34]
With his mates down the pub every evening[00:02:37]
1836 1837[00:02:39]
Nnothing[00:02:43]
