Well, hi, Simon

Hi

Theodore

Hi

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!

Everybody ready Violins, saxophones, trumpets

You mean you hired all those musicians

You bet, I did

You know how much a fifty piece orchestra costs

Ready, boys?

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

Oh, how we love to go for a ride
And see the country far and wide
Look at the snow and the frost

Will you wait?

We roll the windows up and down
And toot the horn in every town

Who cares what the orchestra costs

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

Let's go!

Alvin, put that baton down and listen to me
You just cannot go around
Listen, fifty musicians costs over, let 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

Alvin, will you cut it out?
What do you think we're gonna pay this orchestra with chestnuts?
Now listen

Slow down, buddy
I absolutely cannot understand
A single word you're saying

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!
