The Lyrics
This is dedicated to the flute section of the Pittsburgh Youth Symphony Orchestra (PYSO).
If tomorrow all the strings were gone
We played with all our life
And we had to start again
With just a Brannen and a fife
We'd thank our lucky stars
To be in the flute section
Cause our mascot is a Kelly doll
And we try for perfection
Cause we're proud to be the PYSO flutes
But PSO we still envy
And we won't forget the flutes that left
Their chairs to you and me
And we'd gladly sit down
Next to you and play a Strauss Waltz tribute
Cause there ain't do doubt we love Heinz Hall
God Bless the PYSO flutes
From the Adams "Chairman Dances"
To Bernstein's "West Side" Suite
Gershwin's "Rhapsody In Blue"
Which is quite up-beat
From Shostakovich number 10
To the "Carmen Fantasie"
There's pride in every flutist's heart
Cause we never play off-key
And we're proud to be the PYSO flutes
But PSO we still envy
And we won't forget the flutes that left
Their chairs to you and me
And we'd gladly sit down
Next to you and play a Strauss Waltz tribute
Cause there ain't do doubt we love Heinz Hall
God Bless the PYSO Flutes
We played with all our life
And we had to start again
With just a Brannen and a fife
We'd thank our lucky stars
To be in the flute section
Cause our mascot is a Kelly doll
And we try for perfection
Cause we're proud to be the PYSO flutes
But PSO we still envy
And we won't forget the flutes that left
Their chairs to you and me
And we'd gladly sit down
Next to you and play a Strauss Waltz tribute
Cause there ain't do doubt we love Heinz Hall
God Bless the PYSO flutes
From the Adams "Chairman Dances"
To Bernstein's "West Side" Suite
Gershwin's "Rhapsody In Blue"
Which is quite up-beat
From Shostakovich number 10
To the "Carmen Fantasie"
There's pride in every flutist's heart
Cause we never play off-key
And we're proud to be the PYSO flutes
But PSO we still envy
And we won't forget the flutes that left
Their chairs to you and me
And we'd gladly sit down
Next to you and play a Strauss Waltz tribute
Cause there ain't do doubt we love Heinz Hall
God Bless the PYSO Flutes

I'll bet that I'm the only one on this site who knows what a Brannen is. But what's a Kelly doll?
You have to much time on your hands. Shouldn't you be practicing? I think so. Good Bye.
To Mari D, I definatly think you're one of the only ones on this site who knows what a Brannen is. About the "Kelly Doll"...one of the flutes bought a Kelly Doll (you know, Barbie's little sister) for another one of flutes for her birthday. The Kelly Doll came with a flute, so we made it our section's mascot. -Michelle-
This was very cute! I really enjoyed it! Good Work!
