So my best friend keeps track of all of the news bits on our favorite show and she found this for the recap of the latest Walking Dead:
Back at Woodbury, Andrea took matters into her own hands. The citizens were freaking out, and she delivered an impromptu off-the-cuff speech. "Every one of us has suffered," she said, while behind her a young boy wearing a tattered baseball cap picked up his trumpet and began playing "The Battle Hymn of the Republic." "The death never stops," she explained, while a group of little drummer boys emerged from around the corner. "We will work together, and we will rebuild," she continued, while the citizens of Woodbury all pulled out lighters and waved them over their heads. On Andrea went: "They may take our lives, but they will never take our freedom! Today is the day we declare our Independence Day! Because that's what living is: The six inches in front of your face! Ich bin ein Berliner!" In the distance, she could see the ghost of George Washington and Obi-Wan Kenobi, smiling and nodding at her. "When they write about this plague in the history books, they will write about Woodbury!" The people cheered hooray, and they carried Andrea away on their shoulders, and the history books record that all of Woodbury joined in a two-hour-long rendition of "Do You Hear The People Sing?"
This prompted me to create this:
“Do you hear the people sing?
Singing the song of undead men
It is the music of the people
who will die and walk again
If there is beating of your heart
There’s a hunger for your brain
It is the time for running to start
For the walkers come”
Here's the original from Les Miserables
Do you hear the people sing?
Singing a song of angry men?
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes!
