Try This On Your "Pianna" Anna 1911

William Tell Schiller
some what a "girl killer"
When e'er a piano was 'round.
Awake or a dozing,
with chronic composing,
Afflicted alas! too was found.
One Annabelle Green,
William labelled as "queen"
Who fell hardest of all for his thumps
And as fast as he ripped off
his tunes they were shipped off,
To Anna in lumps and in jumps.
When each music roll was untied,
This note she dicovered inside.

Try this on your "pianna" Anna,
And see if you like the swing.
Try this on your "pianna" Anna
This ditty to sing
is a real pretty thing,
Go and try it on all the fam'ly,
And then on the neighbors next door.
Try this on your "pianna" Anna
and then try it on it some more.

Try this on your "pianna" Anna,
And see if you like the swing.
Try this on your "pianna" Anna
This ditty to sing
is a real pretty thing,
Go and try it on all the fam'ly,
And then on the neighbors next door.
Try this on your "pianna" Anna
and then try it on it some more.

Soon it resulted
that Anna insulted,
The Steinway all day
with those songs.
For each day some more ones,
all "worse than before" ones,
The postman would add to the wrongs.
The neighbors to please,
vowed them good maladies
and said postman one day brought around.
A bunch larger still
Anna cried: "It's from Will!"
But she shrieked some
loud shriek when she found
This note from the neighbors was tied.
To a fireaxe all done up inside.

Try this on your "pianna" Anna,
And see if you like the swing.
Try this on your "pianna" Anna
This ditty to sing
is a real pretty thing,
Go and try it on all the fam'ly,
And then on the neighbors next door.
Try this on your "pianna" Anna
and then try it on it some more.

Try this on your "pianna" Anna,
And see if you like the swing.
Try this on your "pianna" Anna
This ditty to sing
is a real pretty thing,
Go and try it on all the fam'ly,
And then on the neighbors next door.
Try this on your "pianna" Anna
and then try it on it some more.
