Alvin, I see you got here early and you're rehearsing the band. That's very good. You know I would-...What's that great big expensive orchestra waiting for over there? Oh, boy, I'm sure glad they don't belong to-....Alvin, Alvin, say something, Alvin

(spoken)

Everybody ready? Violins, saxophones, trumpets?

(spoken)

You mean you hired all those musicians?

(spoken)

You bet, I did

(spoken)

You know how much a fifty piece orchestra costs?!

(spoken)

Ready, boys?!

(spoken)

Wait a minute, you don't need a fifty piece orchestra to play for-

(orchestra begins)

Oh, how we love to go for a ride

And see the country far and wide

Look at the snow and the frost

(spoken)

Will you wait?

We roll the windows up and down

And toot the horn in every town

Who cares what the orchestra costs?

(spoken)

I'll tell you who!

We're happy while we're rolling along

We're singing every goofy song

Boy, what a joy, what fun

Children waving you a big hello

Why, you've got friends

You didn't even know

How we love to go for a ride

And see the country far and wide

It's great when you're on the go

(spoken)

Let's go!

(spoken)

Alvin, put that baton down and listen to me. You just cannot go around-.Listen, fifty musicians costs over...;et me see, two thousand times fifty-...Do you realize-?! Alvin, stop leading that expensive orchestra and come over here!

Children waving you a big hello

And he's still worrying about the dough

How we love to go for a ride

And see the country far and wide

It's great when you're on the go

(spoken)

Alvin, will you cut it out?! What do you think we're

Gonna pay this orchestra with chestnuts?! Now listen to-

(spoken)

Slow down, buddy

I absolutely cannot understand

A single word you're saying

(spoken)

You can't understand a word I'm saying?! You can't understand a word I'm saying!!!!????? Simon, Theodore, will you cut out that

Wah, wah, wah and listen to me!!! Orchestra, will you please go home????!!!!!!!! Alvin, stop leading that orchestra!!! Alvin!! Alvin!!!!
