Yank! - Your Squad Is Your Squad Lyrics |
|
Off-Broadway production (2005)
Yank the musical - Your Squad Is Your Squad Lyrics
CZECHOWSKI (spoken):
Alright Tennessee! Sit down, shut up, and listen!
(sung)
Seems to me your squad is your squad
Thick or thin
Every man in your squad is your squad
Is your squad
Didn't that stinking film teach ya' nothin'?
Didn't it make you cry?
Watchin' old Speedy die
To save his buddies
Sure, some guys are smelly or odd
(spoken) Like you, Ravioli
ROTELLI:
Hey!
CZECHOWSKI (sung):
Some you like
Some you would ransom
Some are a pain
Some are handsome!
But everyone is needed, son
Till there's assistance from God!
Your squad is your squad and your squad
Is your squad
(spoken) Now, tell Stu you're sorry. You don't gotta love him,
But you gotta except him. Ravioli, help me out
ROTELLI:
Seems to me your squad is your squad
Toe to toe
Facing the foe
PROFESSOR:
Seems to me your squad is your squad
BOTH:
Your squad is your squad
CZECHOWSKI:
Is your squad
PROFESSOR:
Say there's bombs
Troops getting pounded
ROTELLI:
Say that you're trapped
You're surrounded!
CZECHOWSKI:
You'll cast your lot
With them's you got
Fella, when push comes to prod
Your squad
ROTELLI:
Is your squad
PROFESSOR:
Is your squad
ALL:
Is your squad
PROFESSOR (spoken):
Stu, you're a smart guy. You know you're not front line material.
Take a mailboat off the ship
TENNESSEE (spoken):
No one is leaving on your say so
CZECHOWSKI (spoken):
What, you jealous of a couple lovebirds?
ROTELLI (spoken):
Of course Mitch loves Stu, I love my buddy
(sung)
Professor
You know what I’d do for you
I’d chew my arm through for you
Chew straight through
Yes indeed
As long as you were safe and free from harm
Only one arm I’d need
PROFESSOR (spoken):
And you’d look real spiffy with one arm too
ROTELLI:
You’re too kind!
PROFESSOR:
But seriously
(sung)
That’s nothing
I’d pay the god’s any price
The ultimate sacrifice
Do it twice
If I could
I’d throw my only glasses overboard
Swear to the Lord,
I would
ROTELLI (spoken):
You’d be blind! But I’d lead you around the battlefield
PROFESSOR (spoken):
Aw!
CZECHOWSKI (sung):
And Tennessee
Say you’re annoying me
Hypothetically
Still I’d swoop in quick to save your dumb hick hide
There’s no task I would not do
FIght till I’m black and bloody blue
For you
And feel like I’d won the lottery
Knowin’ we got such strong camaraderie!
TENNESSEE (spoken):
You don’t understand
CZECHOWSKI:
I understand plenty
You’re being a dick
PROFESSOR:
And all I know is that Mitch had a long face for a month,
And his buddy came back and he’s good again!
TENNESSEE:
But where were they during the movie?
Stu, answer me! Where the hell were you?
STU (sung):
Seems to me
Your squad is your squad
CZECHOWSKI:
Is your squad
PROFESSOR:
Is your squad
ROTELLI:
Is your squad!
STU:
We’re your crew
Fighting for you
CZECHOWSKI:
Be true to your crew to review
STU:
Some of the time you’re glum
ROTELLI:
Some you’re cranky!
PROFESSOR:
Some days are just the pits
Wish you could call it quits
ALL:
But look around you
Jesus Christ, we make a nice squad!
We’re your hope
Leave it or take it
PROFESSOR:
You’ve seen me cry!
ROTELLI:
Seen me naked!
TENNESSEE:
Aw jeez…
ALL:
So, curse your luck
By now you’re stuck
Squeezed in like peas in a pod
Your squad is your squad is your squad
Is your…
MITCH:
Seems to me
Your squad is your squad
[ALL cheer]
MITCH:
In or out
Make a decision
ROTELLI:
Spare us your gripes
PROFESSOR:
Your derision!
CZECHOWSKI:
And be a friend
At least pretend
ALL:
All that we need is a nod
TENNESSEE:
Fine.
ALL:
Your squad is your squad
Is your squad is your squad
Is your
God damn squad!
