Pacific Overtures

     

Pacific Overtures1976



Company:
Streams are flowing/ See what's coming/ Next!

Reciter:
We will build railroads, foundries, telegraphs, steamships!

Company:
Winds are blowing/ See what's coming/ see what's going/ Next!

Reciter:
Factories will spring up all across our land!

Company:
Roads are turning/ Journey with them/ A little learning/ Next!

Reciter:
Foreign architects will reconstruct our cities!

Company:
Waters churning/ lightning flashes/ Kings are burning/ sift the ashes/ Next!

Reciter:
The day will come when the western powers will acknowledge us as their undisputed equals!

Company:
Tower tumbles, tower rises/ Next!

Reciter:
And all of this will be achieved sooner than you think.

Company:
Tower crumbles/ Man revises/ Motor rumbles/ Civilizes/ More surprises/ Next! Learn the lesson from the master/ Add the sugar, spread the plaster/ Do it nicer, do it faster! Next!

Reciter:
The practical bird, having no tree of it's own, borrows another's.
