BROM
A MAN IS A STUNNING ANIMAL,
PERFECT IN EVERY WAY.
HIS STRENGTH IS LEGEND. HIS BODY, A TEMPLE.
HIS MIND IS FREE FROM MORAL DECAY.
BUT BEFORE YOU ROOT FOR A BRAIN IN
A SUIT, REMEMBER THIS, BECAUSE,
IT'S NOT WHAT HE THINKS THAT MAKES HIM GREAT,
BUT WHAT HE DOES!
IF THE WOOD NEEDS CHOPPING
AND THE CHICKENS, NEED A BED,
WHO'LL BE THERE TO HELP YOU? I WILL!
IF THE COWS NEED MILKING
AND THE HORSES TO BE FED,
WHO'LL BE THERE IN AN INSTANT? I WILL!
IF YOUR HOUSE WAS ON FIRE
AND YOU WERE TRAPPED INSIDE,
WHO'D BE THERE TO SAVE YOU? I WOULD!
HE'LL NEVER GIVE YOU ALL THE THINGS I CAN,
OR BE A NORMAL WORKING MAN.
HE'LL NEVER BE THE FARMER THAT YOU NEED.
ICHABOD
WHEN YOUR HEART IS FULL OF WORRIES
AND YOU NEED A GENTLE EAR,
WHO'LL BE THERE TO LISTEN?
I WILL!
IF YOU NEED A SOOTHING VOICE
TO CHASE AWAY THE FEAR,
WHO'LL BE THERE TO GUIDE YOU?
I WILL!
IF YOU FEEL ALL ALONE
WHEN WINTER CLOSES IN,
WHO'LL BE THERE TO HOLD YOU? I WILL!
IT SIMPLY CANNOT BE IGNORED.
THE PEN IS MIGHTIER THAN THE SWORD.
MARTHA
If you don't taste my pie, Ichabod, it would be a sin!
MARTHA & THELMA
IF THE HAY NEEDS BAILING
OR THE CARRIAGE NEEDS A SEAT…
WHO'LL BE THERE TO FIX IT?
ICHABOD, BROM, BALTUS & BOYS
I WILL!
HELGA & GERTRUDE
IF I'M OUT IN THE MEADOW
AND I FAINT FROM THE HEAT…
WHO'LL BE THERE TO CATCH ME?
ICHABOD, BROM, BALTUS & BOYS
I WILL!
IF YOU NEED PROTECTION
FROM THE RAIN OR SNOW,
WHO'LL BE THERE TO SHELTER YOU? I WILL!
KATRINA, GRETCHEN & GIRLS
DON'T MAKE SUCH PROMISES TO ME.
I NEVER SAID THAT YOU COULD BE MY BEAU!
ICHABOD, BROM & BOYS
IF YOU NEED PROTECTION
FROM THE RAIN AND CHILL,
WHO'LL BE THERE TO SHELTER YOU? I WILL!
KATRINA, GRETCHEN & GIRLS
I DON'T NEED SHELTER FROM THE RAIN!
ICHABOD, BROM, BALTUS & BOYS
PLEASE DON'T LEAVE MY HEART IN PAIN!
KATRINA, GRETCHEN & GIRLS
YOU TRY TO WIN MY LOVE IN VAIN!
ALL
PLEASE BE MY LOVE! I WILL!
