the kings' barcarolle - 1989 concert cast of candide lyrics

Loading...

[charles edward]
i do hereby make a motion
in hopes of your approval
that after our removal
from this most unpleasant ocean
we all say farewell
to vanity and strife
and in some dale (or in some dell)
pursue the simple life

[candide]
what a royal, royal notion!

[hermann augustus]
i second charles’s motion
[charles edward]
i thank you, n0ble prussian

[pangloss]
let us open the discussion

[sultan achmet]
yo*ho!

[pangloss, spoken]
sh!

[tsar ivan]
charles edward’s plan appeals to me
what good are pomp and riches?
let’s wash our hands of luxury
in irrigation ditches
i’m sick of plot and counterplot
they never fail to thicken
let’s find a humble rustic spot
and cultivate the chicken

[candide]
ah, what pregnant observations!

[ivan]
i thank you for your patience
[hermann]
point of order, mister chairman

[pangloss]
the floor is yours, king hermann

[achmet]
yo*ho!

[stanislaus, spoken]
ugh. ugh.

[pangloss, spoken]
sh!

[hermann]
we kings live so unpleasantly
our lives are hard and lonely
let’s form a happy peasantry
for former monarchs only

i’ll trade my kingdom for a hoe
my scepter for a shovel
and make the red, red roses grow
around our happy hovel
[candide]
what a very sweet suggestion!

[charles edward]
i hereby move the question

[ivan]
i second charles’s move, sirs

[pangloss]
say “aye” if you approve, sirs

[achmet]
yo*ho!

[ivan]
aye!

[hermann]
aye!

[charled edward]
aye!

[stanislaus, spoken]
ugh!

[achmet]
yo ho!

[ivan]
aye!

[hermann]
aye!

[charled edward]
aye!

[stanislaus, spoken]
ugh!

[achmet]
yo ho!

[charles edward, hermann & ivan]
aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye
aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye!

[pangloss]
aye!

[stanislaus, spoken]
ugh!

[all except stanislaus]
we have passed charles edward’s motion
and now if we can manage
without excessive damage
the motion of this ocean

[charles edward, hermann, & ivan]
we’ll all say farewell
to vanity and strife
and in some dale (or in some dell)
pursue the simple life

[achmet]
yo*ho for the simple life
yo*ho for the simple life

[charles edward]
yo*ho for the simple life
yo*ho for the simple life

[hermann]
yo*ho for the simple life
yo*ho for the simple life

[ivan]
yo*ho for the simple life

[achmet]
yo*ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho

[candide, pangloss, charles edward, hermann & ivan]
yo*ho

[stanislaus, spoken]
ugh. ugh.

[candide, pangloss, charles edward, hermann & ivan]
yo*ho

[stanislaus, spoken]
ugh. ugh. ugh. ugh.

[achmet]
yo*ho

[candide, pangloss, charles edward, hermann & ivan]
yo*ho

[stanislaus, spoken]
ugh. ugh. ugh. ugh.

[achmet]
yo*ho

[candide, pangloss, charles edward, hermann & ivan]
yo*ho

[stanislaus, spoken]
ugh. ugh. ugh. ugh.

[achmet]
yo*ho

[candide, pangloss, charles edward, hermann & ivan]
yo*ho

[stanislaus, spoken]
ugh. ugh.

[achmet]
yo*ho
