It was Truemansburg, New York, 1963

Where Robert Moog began his Main Street factory

It was Herb Deutsch who blew his mind

With his music and design

And together they built the circuits and made history



Music will never be the same

Because you gave us the synthesizer



The electric buzz of the waveforms called the artists from the east

On Truemansburg they descended

To witness the shimmering beast

Out in the west, Beaver and Krause turned on the heads in Monterey

And Sun Ra flew in the space probe with his Model B

Bordemn and the Mallards, they really took flight

Casting mantras and patterns and numbers into a virgin New York night

Then Wendy switched on her noise and there was no turning back

From Nashville to Popcorn, the Moog was everywhere



Music will never be the same

Because you gave us the synthesizer
