letra de war is a science - revival cast of pippin
[charles]
war is a science
which a general must use
with stratagems and strategies
statistical -n-lyses
to know how many soldiers he’s prepared to lose
(spoken) now, gentlemen
this is the plan for tomorrow’s skirmish
the army of the enemy is stationed on the hill
so we’ve got to bring them down here, where they’re easier to k!ll
our men in the ravine (that’s this area in green)
will move across the valley where you plainly can be seen
then the enemy (in blue) will undoubtedly pursue
and will hope to keep your losses to comparatively few
and then…
[ensemble]
and then…
[charles]
and gentlemen, and then….
[pippin]
and then the men go marching out into the fray
conquering the enemy and carrying the day
hark! the blood is pounding in our ears
jubilations! we can hear a grateful nation’s cheers!
[charles]
(spoken) pippin, sit down immediately!
now, where was i? ah, yes…
a general accepts that war is h-ll and even worse
he must never be too cautious or casualty averse
i’m certain the majority of blood that you will splatter
will be fair to just a minimum of damage that’s collateral
but when up for success he must also pay a price
that, swear by my success, you must sacrifice
and then…
[ensemble]
and then…
[charles]
and gentlemen, and then….
[pippin]
and then the men go marching out into the fray
conquering–
[charles]
(spoken) pippin!!
[pippin]
(spoken) sorry, father
[charles]
(spoken) well, now, time is short…
i’ll have to speed the whole d-mn thing up!
listen to me, men, as i endeavor to explain
what separates a charlatan from a charlemagne
a rule known to generals ill-strious and various
though pompous as a pompey or daring as a darius
a little rule that every leader knows by heart:
it’s smarter to be lucky than it’s lucky to be smart
and then…
[ensemble]
and then…
[charles]
and gentlemen, and then….
(spoken) now, pippin! now!!
[ensemble]
and then the men go marching out into the fray
conquering the enemy and carrying the day
hark! the blood is pounding in our ears
jubilations! we can hear a grateful nation’s cheers!
