Today is Sunday.
Three Sundays ago in New York, members of the Broadway theatre community gathered in tribute to Stephen Sondheim.
Together they sang 'Sunday' from 'Sunday in the Park with George.'
ALL
Sunday,
By the blue,
By the blue,
Purple, yellow, red water
On the green,
On the green,
Purple, yellow, red grass
Let us pass
Through our perfect park,
Let us pass
Through our perfect park,
Pausing on a Sunday
By the cool,
By the cool,
Blue, triangular water
On the soft,
On the soft,
Green, elliptical grass
As we pass
As we pass
Through arrangements of shadows
Towards the verticals of trees
Towards the verticals of trees
Forever ...
By the blue
Purple, yellow, red water
On the green
On the green
Orange violet mass
Of the grass
In our perfect park,
Of the grass
In our perfect park,
Made of flecks of light
And dark,
And dark,
And parasols ...
GEORGE
GEORGE
(Hums as he works)
Bumbum bum bumbumbum
Bumbum bum ...
ALL
People strolling through the trees
Of a small suburban park
On an island in the river
On an ordinary Sunday
Sunday, Sunday, Sunday
Bumbum bum bumbumbum
Bumbum bum ...
ALL
People strolling through the trees
Of a small suburban park
On an island in the river
On an ordinary Sunday
Sunday, Sunday, Sunday
