Any child who has ever left his or her homework at home will relate to the lyrics of this charming piece. The melody of this 4/4 meter piece is divided between the left and right hands in the A section. The key of D minor is created with a hand position using left-hand thumb on Middle C and right-hand thumb on Middle D. In the B section, the left hand moves to D position, and the right hand takes over the melody. An optional duet accompaniment provides the rhythm of the tango.
