Oooo goody, I gotta get in on this....<br>
<br>
All together now in ball park style:<br>
"Equal! Equal! Equal! Equal! Equal!"<br>
<br>
<b>And now a special poem for the occasion:</b><br>
<br>
I tune pianos daily,<br>
I really really do.<br>
I always tune them equal,<br>
and they really like it too!<br>
<br>
When big concert pianists<br>
come visit in our town,<br>
I tune the box to equal.<br>
They never ever frown.<br>
<br>
Big ones, little ones,<br>
from all around the globe.<br>
I do it like I always do,<br>
they never say "Oh no!"<br>
<br>
A then F, to C then G,<br>
Stretching all the way!<br>
Make it nice and even,<br>
"I love it!" they all say.<br>
<br>
So remember in the future<br>
if it sounds real out of tune:<br>
It was probably tuned "HT",<br>
So now this doesn't rhyme.<br>
