“La, a note to follow so” is perhaps the laziest lyric in musical history.
They really couldn’t think of a line for “la?”
Do = Doe
Re = Ray
Mi = Me
Fa = Far
So = Sew
La = [N/A]
Ti = Tea
“La” could very easily have been “Law.”
So, a needle pulling thread. La, a rule we all follow.
Then again, the play was set in Nazi Austria, so maybe “law” wouldn’t be the best comparison.
