Pan for Beethoven

Lyrics

The pan is one of the greatest inventions
An instrument that's made from the oil drum
Say pan and you calling Trinidadians
They are gifted for making the steel pan

From the highest of heights throughout the universe
Bach and Brahms Beethoven you'll hear
Symphonies ringing out to each end of the earth
Is pan like you never hear

It's pan pan for Beethoven
Play pan for Tchaikovsky
Pan in symphony
Pan with a sweet sweet melody

Play pan in Carnegie
Pan in Radio City
In every concert hall oh yes
Pan would play it all

Pan men playing a symphony on pan
Beethoven gives a standing ovation
And when cellos ring out throughout the land
That's the sound of a symphony steel band

Bass pans playing and sounding like a Timpani
In different keys and tones you can hear
Tenor pans ringing out violin rhapsody
It gets better every year

It's pan pan for Beethoven
Play pan for Tchaikovsky
Pan in symphony
Pan with a sweet sweet melody

Play pan in Carnegie
Pan in Radio City
In every concert hall oh yes
Pan would play it all

Soca no instrument plays it better
So we move on with pan in the future
Let's make soca a classical treasure
So that it would be played by orchestras

The spirit of Beethoven will be listening
He'll be shock to know what he hears
Soca vibration have he coffin tumbling
He dead but he still have ears

It's pan pan for Beethoven
Play pan for Tchaikovsky
Pan in symphony
Pan with a sweet sweet melody

Play pan in Carnegie
Pan in Radio City
In every concert hall oh yes
Pan would play it all
