Lyrics #3 - Musicals Pre-Contemporary
As the 60s decade ended, musicals increasingly reflected cultural and diversity themes and civil rights, women's rights, anti-war activist, hippies and long hair, marking the start of the pre-contemporary era. While tradtional Broadway stage productions were still popular, musicals pushed boundaries with serious storytelling, unconventional structures, and a mix of pop, rock opera, traditional Broadway sounds. This time period is a difficult to define because:
Musical film productions were based on non-musical films from past years
Musical stage productions were based on musical film productions from past years with different scores
Opera-style structures make it difficult to separate 'songs' from 'operatic' story narrative

I got chills, they're multiplying / And I'm losing control / 'Cause the power you're supplying / It's electrifying
So what's the one conclusion I can bring this number to? / When you're good to Mama, Mama's good to you
I got my hair, I got my head / I got my brains, I got my ears / I got my nose, I got my mouth / I got my teeeettthhhh
You see we piddle, twiddle and resolve / Not one damn thing do we solve / Nothing's ever solved in foul, fetid, fuming, foggy, filthy Philadelphia
Hot patootie bless my soul / I really love that rock 'n roll
Man say, "I got me a dream!" / Woman say, "Pass the cream!" / Man say, "Just hear the plans that I made!" / Woman say "Marmalade" / Man say, "Don't make me wait!" /Woman say, "Pass your plate!"
It's the hard-knock life! / Got no folks to speak of, so, / It's the hard-knock row we hoe!
You've come from a different place / And i know you've traveled far / Now that you've told me what it is / I'd better point you towards the ___.
The truth is I never left you / All through my wild days, my mad existence / I kept my promise, don't keep your distance
I know for certain, the one I love / I through with flirtin', It's just you I'm thinkin' of / ____ _________ ', I'm savin' my love for you
Tits and ass! / Had the bingo-bongos done / Suddenly I'm getting nash'nal tours!
Tits and ass won't get you jobs / Unless they're yours.
There's a hole in the world like a great black pit / And it's filled with people who are filled with shit / And the vermin of the world inhabit it / But not for long...
With one more look at you / I could learn to tame the clouds and let the sunshine through / Leave a troubled past and I might start anew
I don't know how to take this, I don't see why He moves me / He's a man. He's just a man, and I've had so many men before / In very many ways, He's just one more.
It's better than pot, it's better than booze / A shot of _____, will stamp out the blues
When wilt thou save the people? Oh God of mercy, when? / Not kings and lords, but nations,
Not thrones and crowns, but men!
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind / In this darkness which you know / You can not fight the darkness of the music of the night
Isn't it rich? Are we a pair? / Me here at last on the ground / You in mid-air. Send in the clowns.

Loving this series. I don't know if you realized you've got "Piddle, Twiddle, and Resolve" in two of these.
