memories - charles ives lyrics
(very pleasant)
we’re sitting in the opera house;
we’re waiting for the curtain to arise
with wonders for our eyes;
we’re feeling pretty g*y
and well we may
“o, jimmy, look!” i say
“the band is tuning up
and soon will start to play.”
we whistle and we hum
beat time with the drum
we’re sitting in the opera house;
we’re waiting for the curtain to arise
with wonders for our eyes
a feeling of expectancy
a certain kind of ecstasy
expectancy and ecstasy… sh’s’s’s
(rather sad)
from the street a strain on my ear doth fall
a tune as threadbare as that “old red shawl,”
it is tattered, it is torn
it shows signs of being worn
it’s the tune my uncle hummed from early morn
’twas a common little thing and kind ‘a sweet
but ’twas sad and seemed to slow up both his feet;
i can see him shuffling down
to the barn or to the town
a humming
