Harmony
Unforgettable harmony
Harmony
First there was harmony
And there was rhyme
This was our time
Harmony
Did we have harmony
And thats just about all we had!
Suddenly
A little harmony
And the povertys not so bad
Thin, we were
Poor as sin in berlin, we were!
Patches on our pants
Merciflly, when youre in harmony
Youre in a trance
Others went marching
Not us, wed dance
No one in grodnogubernia
Ever learned to dance like this!
Spoken
Believe it or not I was a rabbi before all this started!
In grodnogubernia yet!
If youre in grodnogubernia
Tell em, this you shouldnt miss!
Harmony
All arm in arm were we
Well, except when the punches flew
Squabbles, sure
But squabbles dont endure
When theres harmony in the brew
Then did we
Oh, so splendidly blend, did we
Like a spell had come
It was clear
My pals and I could hear
A different drum
Outside they hollered!
But we hadharmony!
In this joint
All encounters with counterpoint
End in harmony
And its clear
No mans a solo here
Not even me
No solo mio!
No weve got harmony!
When weve got harmony
Then just maybe weve got a chance
Harmony, the best is harmony!
And the rest is a song and dance!
Where you find
Youre in harmony
There you find
Shelter in a storm
Every note
A button on the coat
That keeps you warm
Stars have the heavens
But weve got harmony!
Harmony!
Harmony!
Harmony!
Troubles disappear
And what you feel is what you hear
Not what you see!
Yes, first there was
Harmony!
