Song Lyrics
Anthony: Everybody, get your batons ready. It's time to conduct the orchestra.

Greg: I wave my arms and swing my baton

I wave my arms and swing my baton.

Anthony: H-hey!

Greg: When the orchestra it plays,

They follow me all the way.

Murray And Jeff: We're following.

Greg: I wave my arms and swing my baton.

Anthony: He's right, you know.

Everybody: He waves his arms and swings his baton.

He waves his baton and swings his baton.

When the orchestra it plays,

They follow him all the way.

He conducts the band or the orchestra.

Anthony: Come on, orchestra, let's play. (Instrumental break) Follow that conductor. Keep it in time. Come on, conductor, let's do it again.

Greg: I wave my arms and swing my baton.

Anthony: You already said that.

Everybody: He waves his arms and swings his baton.

Anthony: We already said that.

Greg: When the orchestra it plays,

Everybody: They follow him all the way.

Greg: Yes, I wave my arms and swing my baton.

Everybody: He conducts the band or the orchestra.
