about

from the Piti Theatre mini-musical "The Time Capsule" about a group of junior archaeologists who discover a time capsule underneath the Massachusetts State House. Each object they take out transports them back to a moment in MA state history - complete with a song. Other songs from this show are about driving the Mohawk Trail in the 1950's, Paul Revere's midnight ride, learning to see history from different points of view (Lend Me Your Glasses, Track 3), and digging.

lyrics

THREE BIG SHIPS
FULL OF TEA
GOV'NOR SHOULD HAVE SENT THEM
BACK TO SEA 
GONNA CREEP ON DOWN
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT
BOSTON HARBOR
SHINING IN THE MOONLIGHT

KING GEORGE THINKS
OUR MONEY IS FREE
KING GEORGE THINKS
HE CAN TAX OUR TEA
 BUT KINGS DON'T WORK
THEY JUST GIVE ORDERS
WHAT OUR LAND NEEDS
ARE SOME BORDERS
 
GONNA HAVE A PARTY
NO ONE'S INVITED
GONNA HAVE A PARTY
LET'S GET EXCITED
GONNA HAVE A PARTY
LIKE A SPARK IGNITED
BUT...SSSHHH
LET'S GO QUIET
LET'S GO QUIET


NOW,
LET'S TURN THIS
HARBOR BROWN
SEND THE RED COATS BACK
TO LONDON TOWN
THROW THE CRATES
INTO THE SEA
CUZ WE'RE THE SONS
OF LIBERTY
 
GONNA HAVE A PARTY
NO ONE'S INVITED
GONNA HAVE A PARTY
LET'S GET EXCITED
GONNA HAVE A PARTY
LIKE A SPARK IGNITED
BUT...SSSHHH
LET'S GO QUIET
LET'S GO QUIET

NO TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION
THAT'S THE LAW AND IT CANT BE BENT
NO TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION
I NEVER SAW A COLONIST IN PARLIAMENT

SO HEY SAM ADAMS
THE DEED IS DONE
LET EVERYBODY KNOW FROM BOSTON
TO KINGDOM COME
WE LIKE COFFEE
BETTER AN-Y-WAY
TEA LOOKS BEST
WHEN ITS FLOATIN' IN THE BAY
 
GONNA HAVE A PARTY
EVERYONE’S INVITED
GONNA HAVE A PARTY
SO LET'S GET EXCITED
GONNA HAVE A PARTY
CUZ A SPARK IS IGNITED
AND OH......
WE WON’T GO QUIET
NO, WE WON’T GO QUIET

I’M SICK OF BEING QUIET!
