    An Upper West Side Story

    The most beautiful sound I've ever heard...
    A string quartet in Maria's apartment!
    A Groupmuse! Say it proud, there'll be music playing!
    They'll play soft, maybe almost like rain.
    A Groupmuse—just come, meet a girl named Maria!

    I'll feel pretty, you'll feel pretty
    Bring a drink and we'll clink while they play!
    And we'll pity anyone who isn't there that day.
    I'll be charming, you'll be charming
    Bring me please wine & cheese—and Beethoven!
    And some Haydn. Don't be hiding, just come on in!

    When you're a Jet you're a Jet all the way
    From your first string quartet to the last song they play!
    When at a groupmuse, you should please bring along
    Some good snacks or some booze and $$ for the song!

    There's a place for us. Somewhere, a place for us.
    (near 72nd St. stop on the 1,2,3)
    Song and food and too few chairs wait for us right there!
    There's a time for us. Some day, a time for us.
    Time together (7pm) and time for tunes (7:45pm)
    Time to learn, time so soon.
    This place, this time—be there.
