Oh Brother!

Composer Jean-Marie Leclair

Had a brother named Pierre,

And Jean-Benoit, another brother,

And Jeune-Marie cadet, another,

Shared with him a busy mother.

When Pierre, a middle child, was grown

He found employment in Lyons.


And that is all I can report,

And so today my verse is short.
