Song of Reproduction

I had a little gramaphone I wind it round and round And with a sharpish needle It made a cheerful sound And then they amplified it It was much louder then And you sharpened fibre needles To make it soft again Today for reproduction I'm as eager as can be Count me among the faithful fans Of high-fi-de-li-ty High fidelity Hi-fi's the thing for me With an LP disc and an FM set And a corner reflex cabinet High frequency range Complete with autochange All the highest notes Neither sharp nor flat The ear can't hear as high as that! Still I ought to please any passing bat! With my high fidelity. Who made this circuit up for you anyway? Bought it in a shop? Ooh what a horrible shoddy job they fobbed you off with Surprised they let you have it in this room anyway The acoustics are all wrong If you raise the ceiling four feet Put the fireplace from that wall to that wall You'll still only get the sterophonic effect if you sit in the bottom of that cupboard! I see you've got your negative feedback coupled in with you push-pull input-output Take that across through your red head pick-up to your tweeter If you're modding more than 8 You're gonna get wow on your top Try to bring that down through your preamp rumble filter to your woofer What'll you get? Flutter on your bottom! High fidelity FFRR for me I've an opera here that you shan't escape On miles and miles of recording tape High decibel gain Is easy to obtain With the tone control at a single touch 'Bel Canto' sounds like 'Double Dutch' Then I never did care for music much It's the High Fidelity!
