jerome moross & john la touche - form a committee lyrics

Loading...

[ulysses]
don’t give up so easy
come back, you guys
let’s get in a huddle
and organize

[boys]
but they are so many
and we are so few
we will never break
this town in two

[ulysses]
i figured out a simple trick
it’s elementary arithmetic
they’re bored and aimless
their brains are blotto
divide and conquer
will be our motto
watch me take the city
watch me take the city
we’ll take over their community

[boys]
just give us the opportunity
[ulysses]
paint some placards
and phone the scare sheets
write some torrid
horrid tear sheets
get some pamphlets
to the printers
and we will knock the town to splinters

hey you!

[first group of citizens]
hey who?

[ulysses]
you and you, let’s form a committee

[first group of citizens]
form a committee?
committee for what?

[ulysses]
don’t ask questions
are you joining or not?
all you have to do is sign
right here on the dotted line
[first group of citizens]
mutter mutter
and grumble grumble
mutter mutter
and grumble grumble
mutter mutter
and grumble grumble

[ulysses]
now you’re a committee

[first group of citizens]
mutter mutter
and grumble grumble

[ulysses]
ladies and gents
start getting wise
it’s time that you opened up your eyes
your city is proud
it’s strong and it’s tall
but they are out to ruin it all

[second group of citizens]
heavens, what a horrid crew!
what on earth are we to do?
[ulysses]
as your spokesman
i deplore ’em
line up here and make a quorum
all join hands
and look real pretty
and we will form a counter committee

[both groups of citizens]
mutter mutter
and grumble grumble
mutter mutter
and grumble grumble
mutter mutter
and grumble grumble

[ulysses]
now we’ll take the city

[both groups of citizens]
mutter mutter
and grumble grumble

[achilles, ajax & nestor]
give up helen
she’s a public scandal
send back helen
she’s too hot to handle

[diomedes & macahan]
don’t ditch helen
you’re a rat unless you’re
loyal to helen
don’t give in to pressure

[first group of citizens]
send back helen
give that baby doll up
get rid of helen
helen is a trollop

[second group of citizens]
save our helen
listen here to this, you
raise h+ll for helen
she’s a civic issue

[second group, first group]
save our helen
send back helen
don’t ditch helen
give up helen
raise h+ll for helen
get rid of helen
save helen
get rid of helen
save helen
get rid of helen
save her!

[hector]
i’m mayor hector
here is my card
i’m happy to meet you guys
but maybe you’re taking this too hard
why don’t you compromise?

why break the town up?
nothing is solved
i have a practical plan
have the two galoots involved
fight it out man to man

[ulysses]
that’s fair and square

[all]
a practical plan
let’s settle the issue
man to man

[ulysses]
and mayor hector will be the referee

[hector]
oh, why not?

[all]
we agree!
