you can actually lock it with a real KEY.

in the musical alphabet?
The answer is 7 starting from the middle C,D,E,F,G,A,B or you can start from A and end with G. This is also called an octave, when you go through all 7 notes to get to the next octave.

K-5 Grade Music Joke Where Did the Music Teacher Leave Her Keys Music Lesson by Mrs. Carol Louise Moore

TIME FOR ANOTHER...
C Moore Kid songs Joke Day
To help chase the "BLUES" away.

And, yes, when we talk about

chasing the BLUES away,
It is saying we feel a little sad,
when we are feeling blue.
Another definition for 
the BLUES 
is a type of music style.

Okay, Get ready to laugh, 
or at least you better laugh. Just kidding.
To understand why this music joke is so funny,
you need to know the functions of a piano.


In my music classroom, I have an 
Upright PIANO

When you open the lid on the piano,
you will see 
white and black keys.


The joke is implying that the music teacher (ME)
left her keys in the piano. 
KEYS like these,

Yet, in music, when you say KEYS,
It really means the black and white KEYS in a piano.

SO...

THE ANSWER WOULD BE:
UNDER THE LID
