Mozart's Lost Symphony

MOZART'S LOST SYMPHONY

Chapter 1: Mozart's Lost Symphony

       I was walking down the road when I saw a garage sale. I was very curious and I checked it out. I loved garage sales and I loved Michael Jackson, so I hoped to see some new Michael Jackson CD's there, maybe right next to the hand sanitizer? But instead I found a CD that had "Mozart Symphony No. 42". I knew Mozart only wrote 41 symphonies, so I thought it was a symPHONY. But right next to it was sheet music that had blood all over it. I then asked the mysterious garage owner how much. He said "666 cents" which I instantly calculated to be 6 dollars and 66 cents. But I was too busy calculating the price that I noticed it was the devil's number. I've had a lot of time to think after purchasing it and listening to it, and in hindsight I should never have gone to the garage sale. I bought it using my very own credit card (jealous?) and then the garage owner said "You shouldn't have done that..."

       When I got home, I put it into my CD player. It started off like a normal Mozart symphony, but something was off. The piano sounded empty and sad, along with something else I couldn't put my tongue on. After 32 seconds, I heard singing. Real singing. I recognized it to be Mozart's voice. He was singing something in Austrian, which is where Mozart is from, so it would make sense he was singing in Austrian. However, I am also Austrian and I speak the language. The lyrics when translated into English read:

Oh oh oh oh

Damn, the blood rises

The mayor it vaporizes

For what was once banished

The blood's seal has vanished

Oh, wha oh oh

Mozart will soon be dead

The blood is red

This is my last symphony

There will be more villainy

       After this was over, a violin started to play. Several, even. They were screeching and my ears started to bleed blood. It really hurt a bit. I was in so much pain on the floor, almost dying. Finally, the song ended after 192 more seconds of the violin and another verse, which I have translated here (it may be inaccurate due to the violins being so loud and distracting me). This time, there were backup vocals, which were a young Beethoven's.

Ohhhhh ahhh ohhhhhh woahhhhh

There will be no more Mozartttt...(Bah Bah Bah Bummm...)

Only death and despairr(Despair!)

It has dominion over alllll(Bah Bah Bah Bummm!!)

The Red Death(Red Deathhhhh)

Ehhh Uhhh Ehhh Uhh Ahhh

My last Symphony! (Room for another composer)

It has all the glory! (All of it)

And now my final message (His last)

(inaudible) (yeah yeah go Mozart)

       Mozart's last line could not be translated. It is likely a version of old Austrian, or the low quality of the CD recording. After I wrote this down, I burned the CD so noone would ever have to go through the torture I had to. But once it was burned, the ghosts of Mozart and Beethoven appeared. They beat me to death. I could never listen to another Michael Jackson song.
