Titanic: A New Musical - The First Cla** Roster / Gospeed Titanic lyrics

[PITMAN] Colonel John Jacob Astor And Mrs. Astor, too Arriving now from the boat train Direct from Waterloo station May proceed to their parlour suite A-62! [ALICE] Her name is Madeleine She's John Jacob Astor's second wife She's only nineteen years old And now she's married to a prominent man Worth over a hundred and fifty million And twenty-nine years her senior! They've only been married seven months She's already seven months pregnant And the scandal was such They ran away to Europe To avoid the publicity! Avoid the publicity! [PITMAN] Mr. and Mrs. Isidor Straus may proceed to Parlour Suite B-55! [ALICE] Aren't they modest? You'd never think by looking at them That he and his brother own Macy's Department store Own Macy's Department store Outright! And he was very close advisor To President Grover Cleveland And served in the House of Representatives Two full terms! And that's his wife of forty years, named Ida. Sad! She hasn't been well So the two of them have been wintering On the French Riviera French Riviera! [PITMAN] Mr. Benjamin Guggenheim and party will find his customary suite on "A" deck! [ALICE] Made his money by smelting gold Spends it like water Forty-five hundred dollars for The Louis Quatorze suite So he can live in luxurious sin With his latest mistress! And they call that justice They call that justice! [PITMAN] Mr. and Mrs. George Widener may proceed to Promenade Suite b-51! [ALICE] He's the richest man in Philadelphia [PITMAN] Mr. and Mrs. John B. Thayer and family, Promenade Suite B-58! [ALICE] Vice-President of the Pennsylvania Railroad! [PITMAN] Mrs. Charlotte Drake Cardoza, Suite B-54! [BEANE] No one really knows who she is But the newspaper says she booked The most expensive suite on the ship And travels with fourteen steamer trunks A medicine chest Her personal pillows and sheets And four little Pekinese dogs So she must be somebody! She must be somebody! [PITMAN] Last call for boarding! This is the very last call for boarding! [ALL] Lift up the ramp Let go the lines Raise up her colours and designs Prepare for casting off And through the port we'll slip! Each person standing at the rail Let one great thought prevail One single prayer God bless this noble ship! [PITMAN] All ashore who are going ashore! All ashore who are going ashore! [ALL] Farewell, farewell Godspeed, Titanic From your berth glide free! As you plough the deep In your arms I'll keep Safely west May you carry me. Sail on, sail on Grest ship, Titanic Cross the open sea Pray the journey's sound Till your port be found Fortune's winds Sing Godspeed to thee Fotune's winds Sing Godspeed to thee!
