Lyrics The Yeomen of the Guard, Act I: "A good day to you!" - Anne Collins feat. Anthony Michaels-Moore, Jean Rigby, Academy of St. Martin in the Fields & Sir Neville Marriner
A
good
day
to
you
Good
day,
Dame
Carruthers
Busy
today?
Busy?
Aye
Poor
Colonel
Fairfax,
who's
to
die
today,
is
to
be
removed
To
number
14
in
the
cold
harbor,
that
he
may
have
his
last
Hour
alone
with
his
confessor,
and
I've
to
see
to
that
He'll
die
bravely
I
fought
under
him
two
years
since,
but
He
valued
his
life
as
it
were
a
feather
It's
a
cruel
thing,
a
wicked
thing,
and
a
barbarous
Thing
that
so
gallant
a
hero
should
lose
his
Head,
for
it's
the
handsomest
head
in
England
For
dealings
with
the
devil
You
know
very
well
that
Colonel
Fairfax
is
a
Student
of
alchemy,
but
this
wicked
tar,
like
a
Cruel
giant
in
a
fairy
tale,
must
be
fed
with
blood
Silence,
you
silly
girl
I
was
born
in
the
old
keep,
and
there's
not
a
stone
in
Its
walls
that
is
not
as
dear
to
me
as
my
own
right
hand
