There are no words, unless someone's made some up recently.

It has become far too common for people, usually those who should know better, to use the word "song" for any piece of music.

Songs have words that they may be sung; tunes have notes that they may be played.

Howard Bursen did neither play nor "sing" this on "Cider In the Kitchen."
