PIERRE: There’s a war going on

Out there somewhere and Andrey isn’t here

Out there somewhere and Andrey isn’t here

And this is all in your program you are at the opera
Gonna have to study up a little bit if you wanna keep with the plot
Cuz it’s a complicated Russian novel everyone’s got nine different names
So look it up in your program
We’d appreciate it, thanks a lot da da da da da da da da da
