el capitan, act iii: "come, isabel" - steven byess & ohio light opera lyrics
[verrada, spoken]
come, isabel, we must try to pass through the insurgent lines.
[isabel, spoken]
but my father is in danger. he’s leading the insurgents and—
[verrada, spoken]
he’s leading them round and round in circles. they’re so tired, they can’t fight. but we must delay no longer. once behind their lines we shall be safe. you trust me, don’t you, dearest?
[isabel, spoken]
with my life, verrada!
[don medigua, spoken]
hup, hup, hup hup hup. hup, hup, hup hup. company, halt! fall out! scaramba, what happened to the rest of the soldiers?
[scaramba, spoken]
they couldn’t make it up the hill, capitan. you’ve done nothing but exercise us all night long!
[don medigua, spoken]
a sound mind in a sound body, i always say. it’s a soldier’s duty to die for his country. wine! wine for all and “all for wine.” thank you! this time tomorrow we shall all be dead on the battlefield. i’m used to it. i was born amidst the din and carnage of war. the first words i heard spoken came from a cannon’s mouth. ha*ha! my mother was a camp follower, boys, and i am a son of the regiment! we are fighting against don medigua, but what’s he done? nothing!
[scaramba, spoken]
that’s just it. we want a viceroy who does something.
[don medigua, spoken]
i’ll drink to that!
