A Good Day to Die
[GARETH & VALENCIAN ARMY]
It's a good day to die
To stand and fight until we're dead!
A good day to die
Though if somebody ever said for what, we forgot
So on reflection, perhaps, maybe not
[ISABELLA, spoken]
Who is that? It looks like they're advancing on the Valencians
[JESTER, spoken]
Can't tell, but they missed my song. Maybe we ask them to wait, so I can run out and sing it again?
[ISABELLA, spoken]
Oh, we'll run out there, Jester...but to fight. Hortensians; this is our chance!
[JESTER, spoken]
Yeah, let's do this...I'm just going to go and check things are locked up...
[ISABELLA, spoken]
Move out!
[HORTENSIANS]
(Cheers)
[ISABELLA + HORTENSIAN ARMY]
It's a good to die!
Though not as good as other days
A good day to die
But if there's one a little ways away
[HORTENSIAN ARMY + Jester]
Well then, hey—we can reschedule
It's more than ok
[CHEF, spoken]
Another beautiful day in the country. Here's some potatoes for you, bae
[GWYNNE, spoken]
These have bugs. Yay! Extra protein
[CHEF]
This is a day
Just a day
Like ev'ry other
[GWYNNE, spoken]
Is everything ok?
[CHEF]
We've lived as best we could
[GWYNNE, spoken]
Looks like we have guests...
[CHEF]
And I must say
Though we may not get another...
If I'm with you
Then our last
Will at least be good
[GWYNNE, spoken]
Well, at least we made it to twenty-five
[VALENCIAN & HORTENSIAN ARMIES]
It’s a good day to die— (Good day to die!)
To spurt our blood and spill our guts!
A good day to die— (Good day to die!)
Out loud, it sounds completely nuts
But still—
Blood will spill!
After that, it will all go downhill
[GARETH, spoken]
She doesn’t want to go on vacation? We were supposed to go zip-lining! Who doesn’t like zip-lining?
[VALENCIAN & HORTENSIAN ARMIES]
We will try not to die, but we will
[ISABELLA, spoken]
To victory!
[VALENCIAN & HORTENSIAN ARMIES]
In the meantime I guess we can kill
And we’ll fight
Who knows why
’Til we say
With a sigh—
It’s a good—
Day—
To die...!
