Free

[00:05.47] You are free!
[00:06.62] I am what?
[00:07.36] You are free!
[00:08.30] Free! Free! Free! Free!
[00:10.57] Oh, what a word!
[00:11.33] Oh, what a word!
[00:13.26] (Sung)
[00:13.26] I've often thought, I've often dreamed
[00:14.91] How it would be
[00:17.29] And yet I never thought I'd be
[00:20.63] But when you come to think of such things
[00:25.02] A man should have the rights that all others...
[00:30.17] Can you imagine what it will be like when I am
[00:37.52] Can you see me?
[00:43.33] Can you see me as a Roman with my head unbowed?
[00:57.24] Sing it good and loud
[00:59.63] Free!
[01:01.39] Like a Roman, having rights, and like a Roman, proud
[01:05.29] Can you see me?
[01:07.39] I can see you
[01:09.46] Can you see me as a voter fighting graft and vice?
[01:13.37] Sing it soft and nice
[01:15.63] Free!
[01:17.24] Why, I'll be so conscientious that I may vote twice
[01:21.24] Can you see me?
[01:23.22] Can you see me?
[01:25.17] When I'm free to be whatever I want to be
[01:28.28] Think what wonders I'll accomplish then
[01:31.20] When the master that I serve is me and just me
[01:34.24] Can you see me being equal with my countrymen?
[01:36.90] Can you see me being "Sudalus the Citizen"?
[01:39.57] Can you see me being
[01:40.46] Give it to me once again!
[01:42.17] Free!
[01:42.67] That's it!
[01:43.23] Free!
[01:43.60] Yes!
[01:43.93] (Spoken)
[01:43.93] Now, not so fast
[01:44.72] I didn't think
[01:45.53] The way I am, I have a roof
[01:46.64] Three meals a day
[01:47.24] And I don't have to pay a thing
[01:48.61] I'm just a slave, and everything's free
[01:50.56] If I were free, then nothing would be free
[01:51.88] And if I'm beaten now and then
[01:53.16] What does it matter?
[01:55.99] (Sung)
[01:56.07] Free!
[01:59.55] Can you see me?
[02:06.31]
[02:14.38] Can you see me as a poet writing poetry?
[02:18.54] All my verse will be
[02:21.02] Free!
[02:22.82] A museum will have me pickled for posterity
[02:26.98] Can you see me?
[02:28.98] Can you see me?
[02:31.04] Be you anything from king to baker of cakes
[02:34.36] You're a vegetable unless you're
[02:36.15] Free!
[02:37.14] It's a little word, but oh, the difference it makes
[02:40.00] It's the necessary essence of democracy
[02:42.56] It's the thing that every slave should have the right to be
[02:45.11] And I soon will have the right to buy a slave for me
[02:47.77] Can you see him?
[02:48.93] Well, I'll free him!
[02:50.18] When a "Sudalus" can move, the universe shakes
[02:52.91] But I'll never move until I'm free
[02:55.54] Such a little word, but oh, the difference it makes!
[02:58.12] I'll be "Sudalus" the founder of a family
[03:00.51] I'll be "Sudalus" the pillar of society
[03:02.96] I'll be "Sudalus" the man if I can only be
[03:05.56] Free!
[03:06.05] Sing it!
[03:06.61] Free!
[03:07.47] Spell it!
[03:08.12] F-R-double L the long way
[03:09.59] F-R-E-E
[03:11.33] Free!
