Fred Allen's quip on Information Please

He was a panelist for this particular program, and they were answering questions about music that referred to swans. Pianist Oscar Levant was one of the panelists, and had answered the first two questions. When the third theme was played, the moderator asked, "Did you get it, Mr. Allen?" Fred replied, "Oscar gets it  before they are out of the egg, even."
