Stephen Sondheim - We're Off on a Great Mission lyrics

[DIONYSOS] Xanthias, it is time to start our journey. We are off on a great mission [XANTHIAS] Where? [DIONYSOS] I, Dionysos, god of drama, am going to travel to the Underworld and bring back a great writer who can speak to the problems of our society and give us comfort, wit and wisdom. And also challenge our complacencies [XANTHIAS] Who are you gonna bring back? [DIONYSOS] Shaw [XANTHIAS] Oh... who? [DIONYSOS] George Bernard Shaw [XANTHIAS] The one who wrote the plays? [DIONYSOS] Yes, the one who wrote the plays. And what glorious plays! [XANTHIAS] I can't think of any at the moment [DIONYSOS] I know them all [XANTHIAS] Did he write "The Rape of the Sabine Women"? I liked that -- it had a lot of pictures [DIONYSOS] No, he did not. It's time to stop flapping your lips and start moving your feet. Walk!
