Oh say do you see what I see?
Congress sitting here in sweet serenity
I could cheer
The reason's clear
For the first time in a year
Adams isn't here
And look!
The sun is in the sky
A breeze is blowing by
And there's not a single fly
I sing, Hosanna! Hosanna
Hosanna, hosanna
And it's cool
Come, ye cool, cool, conservative men
Our like may never ever be seen again
We have land
Cash in hand
Self command
Future planned
Fortune thrives
Society survives
In neatly ordered lives
With well endowed wives
Come sing hosanna, hosanna
In our breeding and our manner
We are cool
Come ye cool, cool, considerate set
We'll dance together to the same minuet
To the right
Ever to the right
Never to the left
Or ever to the right
Let our creed
Be never to exceed
Regulated speed
No matter what the need
Come sing hosanna, hosanna
Emblazoned on our banner
Is "keep cool"
What we do, we do rationally
We never ever go off half-cocked, not we
Why begin
Till we know that we can win?
And if we cannot win
Why bother to begin?
We say this game's not of our choosing
Why should we risk losing?
We cool, cool men
Mr. Hancock
You're a man of property
One of us
Why don't you join us in our minuet?
Why do you persist on dancing with Mr. Adams?
Good Lord, sir!
You don't even like him
That is true
He annoys me quite a lot
But still I'd rather trot
To Mr. Adams' new gavotte
But why, sir?
For personal glory?
For a place in history?
Be careful, sir
History will brand Mr. Adams and his followers
As traitors
Traitors, Mr. Dickerton?
To what?
The British crown? Or the British half-crown?
Fortunately there are not enough men of property in America
To dictate policy
Perhaps not
But don't forget that most men with nothing
Would rather protect the possibility of becoming rich
Than face the reality of being poor
And that is why
They will follow us
To the right
Ever to the right
Never to the left
Forever to the right
Where there's gold
A market that will hold
Tradition that is old
Reluctant to be bold
I sing hosanna, hosanna
In a sane and lucid manner
We are cool
We're the cool, cool, considerate men
Whose like may never ever be seen again
With our land
Cash in hand
Self command
Future planned
And we'll hold
To our gold
Tradition that is old
Reluctant to be bold
We say this game's not of our choosing
Why should we risk losing?
We cool (cool, cool, cool)
Cool (cool, cool)
Cool
Cool
