Epilogue
'Happy End' Cast
GENRE
[LILLIAN, spoken]
Well, Bill, I think it's time you and I got engaged.
[BILL, spoken]
Hold on. I have to think about that for a second.
[LILLIAN, spoken]
Bill? TIme's up
[BILL, spoken]
All right, I accept.
[MAJOR STONE, spoken]
Why, I don't know what to say.
[FLY, spoken]
Then let me say it for you. Our two groups have been fighting the same enemy all along. It's time to forget our little quarrels and stand together. Blasting open a safe is nothing. We've got to blast open the big gang that keeps the safe locked. So, slip on your brass knuckles and learn where to hit. Robbing a bank's no crime compared to owning one. The world belongs to all of us. Let's march togethеr and make it our own.
[ENSEMBLE]
Praise to the Fords and Rockеfellers
Hosannah! Hosannah!
The buyers and the sellers
Hosannah! Hosannah!
All power to the great
Hosannah!
Give them the city and the state
Hosannah!
Bless them with bodyguards and tellers
Hosannah! Hosannah!
Hosannah! Hosannah!
Hosannah! Hosannah!
May God bless Rockefeller
May God bless Henry Ford
May God bless J. P. Morgan, too
And his great treasure hoard
May God bless sex appeal
When wealthy men get bored
God keep their faith and profits high
And though the poor may starve and die
Make sure no court on earth will try the rich
Oh Lord!
Shower thy mercy on the wealthy
Hosannah! Hosannah!
To keep them healthy
Hosannah! Hosannah!
Let honor bless
Hosannah!
Those who all worldly goods possess
Hosannah!
Grant the contented happiness
Hosannah! Hosannah!
Hosannah! Hosannah!
Hosannah! Hosannah!
May God bless Rockefeller
May God bless Henry Ford
God bless big oil and coal and steel
Send them their just reward
[LILLIAN & BILL]
Then they'll give a little bowl of soup to every poor man
Then they'll give a little bowl of soup to every poor man
[ENSEMBLE]
Help and protect the ruling classes
Hosannah! Hosannah!
'Til hatred of them passes
Hosannah! Hosannah!
Lord, smile on those who smile
Hosannah!
Grant them the wealth to live in style
Hosannah!
Pardon their crimes against the masses
Hosannah! Hosannah!
Hosannah! Hosannah!
Hosannah! Hosannah!
May God bless Rockefeller
May God bless Henry Ford
God bless big oil and coal and steel
Send them their just reward
May God bless sex appeal
When wealthy men get bored
God keep their faith and profits high
And though the poor may starve and die
Make sure no court on earth will try the rich
Who rule the earth the way you rule the sky
Almighty Lord!
