The Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra, Op. 34 Fugue: Allegro Motto Songtext
von Leonard Bernstein, New York Philharmonic

So you see
The composer Benjamin Britten has taken a whole orchestra apart
Now he puts it back together again in a fugue
The instruments coming one after another
In a same order as before, beginning with the piccolo
And at the end, when all the instruments have finally come in
The brass will play old Henry Purcell′s melody
While the other instruments will go on playing Benjamin Britten's fugue
