When the cotillion arrived We threw out the television I'm Model D 575 Has custom flute presets And Harmony-Plus in addition Now for an arm and a leg We get three half-dozen beats to choose from So now we can pretend That there's an orchestra in the lounge room I put the genie bass on So my left hand can play the choir With sixteen foot Diapason And Lowrey's patented Orchestral Symphonizer Banjo's great on repeat The kids want to play but they'll have to be patient The wife can't help tapping her feet It's a genuine home entertainment revelation State, state, state, state of the art (State of the art) (Hold the phone, it's so) State, state, state, state of the art (Listen to the difference!) State, state, state, state of the art (By use of a computer) (Oh my God, it's so) State, state, state, state of the art Now we don't want to go out When we could spend the night at home with the cotillion Invite the neighbors around Start the boss a nova beat and limbo from the living to the kitchen Enjoy the state of the art The magic swing piano really is astounding Now we can't tell them apart But these amazing simulations end up sounding even better than the real thing State, state, state, state of the art (State of the art) (Hold the phone, it's so) State, state, state, state of the art (Computer controlled tone color) State, state, state, state of the art (The marriage of music to computers is quite natural) (Oh my God, it's so) State, state, state, state of the art (It is time to hear the results) (Hold the phone, it's so) (Oh my God, it's so)
