Good morning....

[DVC~OKW~96]

[BOYS]
Is it worth the waiting for?
If we live 'til eighty four
All we ever get is gru...el!
Ev'ry day we say our prayer --
Will they change the bill of fare?
Still we get the same old gru...el!
There is not a cust, not a crumb can we find,
Can we beg, can we borrow, or cadge,
But there's nothing to stop us from getting a thrill
When we all close our eyes and imag...ine

Food, glorious food!
Hot sausage and mustard!
While we're in the mood --
Cold jelly and custard!
Pease pudding and saveloys!
What next is the question?
Rich gentlemen have it, boys --
In-di-gestion!

Food, glorious food!
We're anxious to try it.
Three banquets a day --
Our favourite diet!

Just picture a great big steak --
Fried, roasted or stewed.
Oh, food,
Wonderful food,
Marvellous food,
Glorous food.

Food, glorious food!
What is ther emore handsome?
Gulped, swallowed or chewed --
Still worth a kin's ransom.
What is it we dream about?
Wat brings on a sigh?
Piled pieahes and cream , about
Six feet high!

Food, glorious food!
Eat right through the menu.
Just loosen your belt
Two inches and then you
Work up a new appetite.
In this interlude --
The food,
Once again, food
Fabulous food,
Glorious food.

Food, glorious food!
Don't care what it looks like --
Burned!
Underdone!
Crude!
Don't care what the cook's like.
Just thinking of growing fat --
Our senses go reeling
One moment of knowing that
Full-up feeling!

Food, glorious food!
What wouldn't we give for
That extra bit more --
That's all that we live for
Why should we be fated to
Do nothing but brood
On food,
Magical food,
Wonderful food,
Marvellous food,
Fabulous food,

[OLIVER]
Beautiful food,

[BOYS]
Glorious food

Because no musical would be complete without a number like this.


Once in every show
There comes a song like this
It starts off soft and low
And ends up with a kiss
Oh where is the song
That goes like this?
Where is it? Where? Where?

A sentimental song
That casts a magic spell
They all will hum along
We'll overact like hell
For this is the song that goes like this
Yes it is! Yes it is!

Now we can go straight
Right down the middle eight
A bridge that is too far for me

I'll sing it in your face
While we both embrace
And then
We change
The key

Now we're into E!
*hem* That's awfully high for me
But as everyone can see
We should have stayed in D
For this is our song that goes like this!

I'm feeling very proud
You're singing far too loud
That's the way that this song goes
You're standing on my toes
Singing our song that goes like this!

I can't believe there's more
It's far too long, I'm sure
That's the trouble with this song
It goes on and on and on
For this is our song that is too long!

We'll be singing this til dawn
You'll wish that you weren't born
Let's stop this damn refrain
Before we go insane
For this is our song that ends like this!

Does this one count? It's a muscial, it's a broadway show, and it's sung on a winter morning in front of a tavern in transsylvania:

Alles ist hell, wenn der schnee in der sonne blitzt/
alles geht schnell wenn man draussen im freien sitzt/
und dabei schlupft meine säge durch zedern/
beim gänserupfen fliegen die federn/

alles ist gut wenn die sonne den frost verscheucht/
was man auch tut frische luft macht die arbeit leicht/
welch eine freude das messer zu schwingen/
alles muss heute besser gelingen

Which means translated:

Everything's bright when the sun is glistening in the snow/
everything goes easier when you are sitting outdoors/
whilst my saw is slipping through cedars/
when plucking the goose the feathers fly

everything is good when the sun displaces the frost
whatever you do fresh air makes work easier
what a joy to swing the knive
whatever you do works better today

It's from Tanz der Vampire - "Dance of the vampires" the musical version of the movie "The fearless vampire killers or pardon me but your theeth are in my neck" by Roman Polanski.

So it is a musical show by Jim steinman and it was a broadway show as well (if only for a few weeks). The outtakes I've seen were really horrible and as far as I heard they changed the story and made it more a comedy.

Nevertheless, the european version is GREAT!

And to prove: Type the keywords "Alles ist hell" in youtube und you might end with the first of a few clips of this show.Enjoy!

That's so strange.....I remember seeing the Fearless Vampire Killers on TV when I was little...and only just yesterday I looked it up on IMDB....ooooh eerie.

Feeling awfully bad
What a time I had
Cause I didn't buttoned up my overcoat
Hatsjoe

All I do is sniff
Pass that handkerchief
What a funny feeling in my eyes and ears and throat
Oy, I can't sleep I can't eat
Get a pail and soak my feet
I got a code in my doze
O, I got a code in my doze
Please repeat what you said
Funny noises in my head
I got a code in my doze
Oh, I got a code in my doze

Went to see the doctor
Asked him what to do
Lordy help that doctor
He said I think I got one too
So we laid down side by side
I'm still here but the doctor died
I got a code in my doze
Oh, I got a code in my doze
Hatsjoe

What if the only song I have memorized from a musical is the instrumental ones!? LOL.

One day more!

M. & MME. THENARDIER
Watch 'em run amuck,
Catch 'em as they fall,
Never know your luck
When there's a free for all,
Here a little `dip'
There a little `touch'
Most of them are goners
So they won't miss much!

Students (2 Groups)
1: One day to a new beginning

2: Raise the flag of freedom high!

(if you can't tell it's my Friday )

All I could think of was the old HI-HO song but ya know what?!?! After all these years, I had the lyrics wrong it's "HOME from work we go" Well I guess I'll still go dig, dig, dig...

We dig dig dig dig dig dig dig in a mine the whole day through
To dig dig dig dig dig dig dig is what we like to do

It ain't no trick
To get rich quick
If you dig dig dig
With a shovel or a pick
In a mine (In a mine)
In a mine (In a mine)

Where a million diamonds
Shine

We dig dig dig dig dig dig dig from early morn to night
We dig dig dig dig dig dig dig up everything in sight

We dig up diamonds
By the score
A thousand rubies
Sometimes more
We don't know what we dig them for
We dig dig digga dig dig

(musical intro)

Hi ho!
Hi ho!
Hi ho! Hi ho! Hi ho!

Hi ho, Hi ho
It's home from work we go
(whistles)
Hi ho, Hi ho, Hi ho

Hi ho, Hi ho
It's home from work we go
(whistles)
Hi ho, Hi ho
(more whistles)

Hi ho, Hi ho
Hi ho, Hi ho
Hi ho, Hi ho
Hi ho, Hum

Hi ho, Hi ho
It's home from work we go
(whistles)
Hi ho, hi ho, hi ho, hi ho​
