1776 The New Cast Recording movie - Cool, Cool, Considerate Men lyrics
rate me<br>
Dickinson:<br>
Oh say do you see what I see?<br>
Congress sitting here in sweet serenity<br>
I could cheer; the reason's clear<br>
For the first time in a year Adams isn't here<br>
And look, the sun is in the sky<br>
A breeze is blowing by, and there's not a single fly<br>
<br>
I sing hosanna, hosanna<br>
Hosanna, hosanna<br>
And it's cool<br>
<br>
Come ye cool cool conservative men<br>
The likes of which may never be seen again<br>
We have land, cash in hand<br>
Self-command, future planned<br>
Fortune flies, society survives<br>
In neatly ordered lives with well-endowered wives<br>
<br>
We sing hosanna, hosanna<br>
To our breeding and our banner<br>
We are cool<br>
<br>
Come ye cool cool considerate set<br>
We'll dance together to the same minuet<br>
To the right, ever to the right<br>
Never to the left, forever to the right<br>
May our creed be never to exceed <br>
Regulated speed, no matter what the need<br>
<br>
We sing hosanna, hosanna<br>
Enblazoned on our banner <br>
Is keep cool<br>
<br>
What we do we do rationally<br>
We never ever go off half-cocked, not we<br>
Why begin till we know that we can win<br>
And if we cannot win why bother to begin?<br>
Rutledge:<br>
We say this game's not of our choosing<br>
Why should we risk losing?<br>
All:<br>
We are cool<br>
<br>
To the right, ever to the right<br>
Never to the left, forever to the right<br>
We have gold, a market that will hold<br>
Tradition that is old, a reluctance to be bold.<br>
Dickinson:<br>
I sing hosanna, hosanna<br>
In a sane and lucid manner<br>
We are cool <br>
All:<br>
Come ye cool cool considerate men<br>
The likes of which may never be seen again<br>
With our land, cash in hand<br>
Self-command, future planned<br>
And we'll hold to our gold<br>
Tradition that is old, reluctant to be bold.<br>
We say this game's not of our choosing<br>
Why should we risk losing?<br>
<br>
We cool, cool, cool<br>
Cool, cool, cool<br>
Cool cool men.<br>
<br>
