the civility of albert cashier – civilized كلمات اغاني

[old albert]
ha! civilized society. pft…!

[walter]
i see soldiers all marching to fear through the night
young girls packing picnics to come watch the fight

[ensemble]
only been in a battle
but this feels like a war
fifty years since our blood spilt
upon our own sh-r-s
this is civilization
pouring smoke to the skies
as the world sits and wonders
how a civil man dies

(sounds of cannons)

[sgt collins]
men
you can hear the cannons pounding
we will keep the siege ’til they fall
don’t you let a soul escape you
they will try to push
you will hold
win this battle here in vicksburg
and we crack the backs of the rebels’ spine
this is it
do your worst, men
you want your glory, now is the time!

(gunshot)

[billy]
argh!

[young albert]
oh god! oh god, no, that’s billy middleton!

[walter]
he’s down! tie it there. right here, right above the wound. tie it tight now

[albert]
d-mn it all

[jeffrey]
he’s just a boy…

[albert]
give me my musket. d-mn b-st-rds

[jeffrey]
brand new gatlings to k!ll fifty men with one crank

[sgt collins]
new formation to charge full-force into their ranks

[walter]
new-found g*nius conceived by a general’s mind

[jeffrey]
never thought or believed it’d be used–

[albert]
on civilized kind
realized boys
guiding all able-armed farm-to-field boys
eulogized here
shaking with fear
canonized
lying so thick it’s not clear
where the ground and the bodies start
we think we are saviors
fighting for freedom
playing like heroes when we are just children
bleeding for glory or praise
with no mind to the cost of the prize

if god is above us
is he looking down on us
with love in his eyes
are we evil or broken
are our eyes truly open
or are we too blind
to call ourselves civilized?

[jeffrey]
help! i’ve got two greybacks coming up the hill!

[albert]
shoot! missed them, d-mn!

[sgt collins]
hold that line

[soldier]
i’m all out of ammo!

[sgt collins]
don’t you do it!

[albert]
watch, sergeant collins, look, there’s the sun!

[walter]
got a soldier down, i can get him

[jeffrey]
no, walter, it’s too dangerous!

[walter]
cover me, boys!

[albert]
walter, stay here, there’s too many!

[jeffrey]
no!

[sgt collins]
do it for illinois!

[walter]
i’ve got another one down, i’m going after him

[jeffrey]
no, no, walter, you can’t risk going back out there, the greybacks outnumber us three to one

[albert]
just give it a minute, walter

[walter]
we can’t just leave our boys to fester and die out there!

[albert]
honeybees are flying too close. let the fighting die down a bit!

(gunshot)

[albert]
oh god, no, that’s sergeant collins

[walter]
he might still be alive. i’m going after him. cover me, boys!

(gunshot)
