Tempo

Name me three little tempo
1-2-3
Racing to the finish line at different speeds
Largo, Moderato, Presto and me!
Name me three little tempo
1-2-3

Largo was the oldest and he took his time. Slow was his flow, he was dignified.
Moderato in the middle she kept a steady pace. Her nickname was allegro but did she win the race?
Presto was the fastest, she quicker than fire. Rapidly increasing but her flame was tired
In the back of my mind I heard my coach's advice!
"Pace yourself and do not lose your stride!"

Name me three little tempo
1-2-3
Racing to the finish line at different speeds
Largo, Moderato, Presto and me!
Name me three little tempo
1-2-3

Yo, You know the old story about the tortoise and the hare?
I guess the rabbit took for granted time he had to spare
The tortoise knew the path like the back of her shell
So she took her time and guess what?
Won the race as well!
So, who truly was the winner of the race that day?
Tempo, you say?
Why? Cause Tempo is the speed in which music is played!

Alright
Let's break it down with the speeds now
Let's do the largo!
Slow motion
Yea!
You got to move slower than that
I'm talking slow motion
Now do the moderato!
Kind of walk in the place
You can march to the beat
Now do the presto!
You ready to presto?
You ready to presto?
Go, go presto!
Jog fast!
Jog in place!
Fast, fast, fast!
Ahhh, the FLOOR IS LAVA!
THE FLOOR IS LAVA!
EVERYBODY UP!
GET UP!
OH!
UGH!
AH!
What happened?
Ugh... bring the beat back
