[students]
hoy! hoy! hoy! hoy!
hoy! hoy! hoy! hoy!
[ilya, spoken]
pashenka, you’re about to spend long winter nights in the trenches wondering why you ever left your friends behind, so here’s a book to remember us by…
[lara, spoken]
“great palaces of russia.”
[pasha, spoken]
“great palaces?” for a revolutionist? is this a joke, ilya? what am i supposed to do with this on the front lines?
[ilya, spoken]
no, it’s serious, it’s, it’s-
[pasha, spoken]
of course, ilya. i see now…
(sung)
it’s a brilliant gift
your resilient gift
for the russian-german line
for i cannot think of any better
bullet shield
as i dodge an exploding mine…
than a fat book of palace protocol
the tsar in his marble billiard hall
may it guard my heart
as my comrades fall
from shrapnel overhead
and if i’m hit
who gives a sh-t?
let the tsar take one instead!
no ordinary gift we receive here!
it’s a godsend!
[students]
it’s a godsend!
[pasha]
to remind us of the decadence
i leave here
it’s a godsend!
[students]
to a marxist end!
[pasha]
in that h-llhole in the woods
where i go to the latrine
when my army issue
has no toilet tissue
ev’ry cr-p i take
for the cr-p we took
it’s a godsend – this book!
[mischa, spoken]
i found this in the marketplace
[pasha, spoken]
a woman’s nightgown?
[mischa, spoken]
no, the clerk -ssured me it’s a night-shirt, for a soldier!
[pasha, spoken]
did you read inside, mischa? “madeleine vionnet, paris, femmes, pet-te.”
this must be for the french army!
(sung)
such a festive gift
this “suggestive” gits
all my trenchmates will rejoice
when we’re doubled up in sleeping bags
for warmth that night
i’ll be everyone’s first choice
[students]
no ordinary gift you impart here!
[pasha]
it’sa godsend!
[students]
it’s a godsend!
[pasha]
spread “das kapital”
in every russian heart here
for we start here, my subversive friends!
[all]
da!
(a drunken comrade challenges pasha to dance the cl-ssic cossack barynya. pasha triumphs with a flourish.)
[lara, spoken]
i have an announcement. this morning i became larissa antipova!
[students, spoken]
how could you not tell us?
[pasha, spoken]
what german would dare take my life, when lara’s waiting for me in moscow?
(sung)
if indeed there is a god
which i’m not too certain of
you’re the proof empirical
a modern miracle
[pasha and students]
the stars smile down
from heaven above…
[student]
for the godsend is love!
