Toreador "L" Song

sung by opera singer Samuel Ramey
to the tune of Bizet's Toreador song from Carmen

There are people who sing high
But I like singing low
It's a thing that I do well
And "low" begins with "L"

"L" is the letter that I love the most
"L" helps me go low, low, low, low
"L" can also help me la, la la
"L", I think you are swell!
Oh, say, can you tell
I'm in a spell
Under the letter "L"

(repeat, with full chorus of singers)

"L" starts some of my favourite words
Like love, life, and laughter
So to you, dear letter "L", I hereby vow
To sing forever after!

(repeat chorus, all singers)
