jerome moross & john la touche - the heroes come home lyrics

Loading...

[men]
our n0ble boys in blue
are coming, coming
there’ll be a hullabaloo
the flutes will play

the flutes will play
and the trumpets will bray
and the drums will be drumming
drumming

[women]
the lonely arms that we’ve
been saving, saving
around their necks will weave
the sun will beam

the sun will beam
and the eagle will scream
and the flags will be waving
waving

[all]
three cheers and a tiger
for our brave boys in blue!
rah! rah! rah! tiger!
[menelaus]
three cheers and a tiger
for our brave boys in blue
now our mayor’s wife, mrs juniper
has a word to say to you

[mrs juniper]
at last you’re safe at angel’s roost
we’ve all been waiting quite a while
to welcome you we have produced
a pageant in the latest style

was miss minerva wrote the verse
and lovey mars who set the tunes
and i would patiently rehe+rs+
the folks on sunday afternoons

[women]
welcome to you, captain mars
with your pair of silver bars

[men]
welcome, ajax finucane
the strong of arm and weak of brain

[women]
then there’s agamemnon nimmin
always handy with the women
[men]
not to mention old nestor neider
a smooth talker but a rough rider

[women]
bluey weinerwitz, thirsty miller
they fought with dewey at maniller

[men]
silas protes, homer pickins
made them cubans run like the d+ckens

[women]
skinny diomede kunkel
made them spanish holler, ‘uncle!’

achilles akins known for fighting
and his chum patroclus whiting

and doc macahan who cured their ills
with carter’s little liver pills

[men]
last but not least of the foregoing twelve in glory
is ulysses spelvin
[ulysses]
this show you thought up
gee, it was pretty
boys, i’m too wrought up
thank the committee

[men]
thank you for the many letters
you writ us
and the caps, and earm+ffs, and mittens
and sweaters, and m+fflers, and socks
you knit us

[women]
did you have wild adventures?
tell us, fellas

[men]
why don’t you ask ulysses?
he’s got the gift of gab

the bright one is ulysses
his instinct never misses
he’s crazy like a fox, he
just overflows with moxie

when we get in a tangle
he figures out an angle
he’s smarter than nick carter
he’s the one to tell you all
