Okay fellas get ready
That was very good, Simon.

Very good Theodore.
-Ahhh.
Ah, Alvin, you were a little flat, watch it.
Ah, Alvin. Alvin. ALVIN!

Very good, boys
-Lets sing it again! Yeah, lets sing it again!
No, That's enough, lets not overdo it
-What do you mean overdo it?
-We want to sing it again!
Now wait a minute, boys
-Why can't we sing it again?
-[chipmunk chatter]
Alvin, cut that out..Theodore, just a minute.
Simon will you cut that out? Boys...
That's pretty much it, there is talking in between verses but you can either
repeat the intro or just play the E chord rhythmically for a couple bars instead!
i should have a youtube video that shows how i play it up shortly!
