[major stone, spoken]
that beloved temperance ballad, “the liquor dealer’s dream.”
[governor, spoken]
ah * one of my favorites!
[major stone, spoken]
captain jackson?
[hannibal]
at the bar, behind a pile of glasses
bleary*eyed, with puffy purple lips
sleeps a pale and sweaty liquor dealеr
trousers bulging on his flabby hips
and he dreams that hе’s gone to heaven
and he’s called to the judgment board
and he slugs down scotch in a frenzy
’til he’s drunker than a lord
[army & fold]
throw out the lifeline! soul overboard!
throw out the lifeline! soul overboard!
[hannibal]
and his knocking knees give way beneath him
and he sees no help, he’s doomed to fail
and he feels the sword above his neck bone
and his shirt, that’s damp from top to tail
[hannibal & governor]
and he shames himself in terror
there before all the heavenly host
and he thinks, “because i sell spirits
god has given up my ghost”
[army & fold]
throw out the lifeline! soul overboard!
throw out the lifeline! soul overboard!
[jane]
then he wakes: his bleary eyes are staring
and the purple’s paler on his lips
and he says
[jane, army & fold]
“i’ve got to mend my ways now”
hikes his pants up on his flabby hips
“and to widows and orphan children
to the needy, the old, the poor
i will donate this dirty money
that has made my soul impure”
soul safely rescued!
soul safely rescued!
(spoken)
oh!
[bill, spoken]
don’t mind me. i’m just passing through, out the back window. i hope you’ll be so good as to sing that last chorus again whilst i take my leave. just act natural.
[jane, army & fold]
soul safely rescued!
soul safely rescued!
[lillian, spoken]
bill!
