may this monument stand forever - pulp musicals lyrics
narrator:
in a blinding flash
they were transported
to a bustling harbor
that belonged to a city
that must have been
ten thousand strong
there was something peculiar
‘bout this city on the water
hershel looked around
herschel:
something’s wrong
narrator:
steamships passed upriver
as smoke filled the air
margaret:
i’ve never seen so many…
rose:
not even in new york harbor
narrator:
merchants moved around them
tending to their wares
herschel:
excuse me, sailor! what is the name of this
settlemеnt?
morgan:
the port of hanover, sir
(a ship’s bell rings)
sorry, sir, i must gеt to the ellen austin. she
can’t leave without her bosun
herschel:
…hanover. oh my god
narrator:
everyone looked to the sky
samuel:
there she is
narrator, chorus:
they saw the brick satellite
standing strong with all her might
margaret:
don’t give up the fight
rose, samuel:
travel where you might
herschel:
we will reunite
rose:
look!
narrator:
on the beach beside the harbor
a towering obelisk
they hurried to the monument
that was made entirely of brick
there was a plaque, samuel read
this is what it said
samuel:
on this site in eighteen thirty*five
sir john herschel and anna hanover
launched the first brick satellite, the sagitta
in what was known as township number nine
herschel:
what?
samuel:
erected to commemorate their bravery
to thank them for their gift to all mankind
may this monument stand forever
dedicated august, eighteen sixty*five
chorus:
this is your brick satellite
this is your brick satellite
rose:
… what year is it?
narrator:
to be continued!
