the sailor's tango (reprise) - 'happy end' cast lyrics

[major stone, spoken]
this song you sang * it wasn’t a profane song, was it? just somewhat couched in the vernacular, i suspect?

[lillian, spoken]
well, yes, you could say that.

[major stone, spoken]
it’s about sailors, i’m told.

[lillian, spoken]
yes, you see they’re drowning. and it goes like this.
(sung)
then for once, you don’t hear all that big talk in the air
and the big talkers suddenly look smaller
and they’re down on their knees
and mumbling about their father who’s up there
and they’re starting to weigh the sins their souls must bear
and that’s how they die
and now let me tell you a fact that we all ought to know
when you stand beforе the throne wherе our lord is sitting
you may have been bragging a lifetime or so
but now, when it matters, you’re sh– worried!
ah, the sea is blue, so blue
and all the world goes on its way
(spoken)
and that’s the gist of it.
[major stone, spoken]
yes, i see. well, that’s really quite a serious song, isn’t it? the last rhyme is a bit weak. but otherwise it seems just fine.
