letra de invocation/forget war - sondheim on sondheim company
[prologus]
gods of the theater, smile on us
you who sit up there stern in judgment, smile on us
you who look down on actors
(spoken)
and who doesn’t?
(sung)
bless our little company and smile on us
think not about deep concerns
think not about dark dilemmas
[prologus & company]
we offer you song and dance
we offer you rites and revels
we offer you jokes and insults
we offer you grace and beauty
bless our play and smile
[company]
forget war, forget woe
forget matters weighty and great
allow matters weighty to wait
for a while
for this moment, this brief time
frown on reason, smile on rhyme
forget pomp, forget show
forget laurels, helmets and crowns
receive lovers, liars and clowns
for a while
for this moment, this brief span
celebrate the state of man
[stephen sondheim, spoken]
that was the first part of a song called “forget war”, which was the original opening of forum when jerry robbins was going to direct it. but jerry decided not to, and he was replaced with george abbott, and george abbott didn’t like the song. he couldn’t hum it, he said. so out it went.
