THE MUSIC THEORY SONG
(Original parody lyrics by David Rakowski. Additional lyrics and vocal performance by Dave Swenson.)

Octave moving to the mediant,
Major 6th stepping down to do,
Major seconds being sung by a choir,
Chromatic alterations of the scale,
Diatonic scale, descending scale to minor third,
Major 6th, ii V-7 of IV,
Major seconds with their ears open wide, will hear a pretty tritone tonight.
        
There's minor sevenths in the bridge,
There's also lots of minor seconds in the bridge,
And every minor 6th is gonna try
to hear the supertonic over V of V.
        
A motif used to build this simple phrase
Major 6th, five walks down to one,
Although this phrase rises to a high leading tone,
Drop a perfect fifth,
Meet the Flintstones,
Sing a perfect fourth two one.
