00:04:07THE END
00:04:08Along the river baser
00:04:10is where we spend the day.
00:04:12We're assigned to just a single chore and that's getting clay.
00:04:16The river bank is filled with all the clay we must stick.
00:04:20We are the ones who mow the clay and straw that we mix.
00:04:48We are singularly honored to be here making bricks.
00:04:53And when they're taken from the kiln, they're ready to lay.
00:04:57We are proud to do this labor even though there's no way.
00:05:01Keep it going.
00:05:04Never slowing.
00:05:08Add the water to the mortar.
00:05:12Make it thicker, do it quicker.
00:05:16Ever onward.
00:05:17Ever onward.
00:05:19Better hustle.
00:05:20Hustle.
00:05:21Hurry.
00:05:21Hurry.
00:05:22Here one.
00:05:22Here one.
00:05:23Get it.
00:05:23Set it.
00:05:24Shoot it.
00:05:24Lift it.
00:05:25Higher.
00:05:25Higher.
00:05:26Please.
00:05:28Ho.
00:05:31Please.
00:05:34Ho.
00:05:35We'll have a mighty power on the day that it's done.
00:05:42And the only thing that shines above it will be the sun.
00:05:48The highest power in the kingdom there has to be.
00:05:54It will stand from now till kingdom come for mankind to see.
00:06:01Good citizens, in my elation permit a minor proclamation.
00:06:08To be a travesty of modesty, were I not to say aloud, you do your mayor proud.
00:06:14We'll be rewarded.
00:06:15The time draws near.
00:06:17The good king's emissary soon comes here.
00:06:23When yonder clock chimes with golden tone, the banner of the king will be our own.
00:06:29Wealth and fame will be ours.
00:06:31Hamelin Town is sure to be clockmaker to his majesty.
00:06:35Where is the clockmaker?
00:06:40Yes, your honor.
00:06:42Have you completed the molds of the golden chimes?
00:06:45Well, I cannot, your honor, until this construction is prepared for exact measurements.
00:06:50I'm shocked to view your efforts flagging.
00:06:53Woe to Hamelin if we are found lagging.
00:06:58Here now, you precious little brats.
00:07:02Put on your gloves and get to work.
00:07:05During this emergency, I proclaim a patriotic aim.
00:07:11We'll stretch each hour and crowd each minute.
00:07:15Work is more fun, if all are in it.
00:07:17Therefore, our little men and women will voluntarily eliminate school and play.
00:07:23Oh, Father, they have so little time as it is for play.
00:07:27Less than half an hour a day.
00:07:29Time for food and time for rest.
00:07:32How else can we make Hamelin best?
00:07:36But Trueson will be furious.
00:07:39It would indeed be curious if that fool were not.
00:07:41Your honor, the mayor of Hamelout seeks audience with you.
00:07:44Oh, a rival of long tradition.
00:07:48Methinks he feels the pinch of competition.
00:07:51Trueson!
00:07:59Trueson!
00:07:59Paul's told me of this new decree.
00:08:01Mara, this time they've gone too far.
00:08:03But they hope to win the banner of the king.
00:08:05The children need to learn and play.
00:08:07To dance and sing in the sun of the day.
00:08:09The council's mad with envy, greed.
00:08:12Cherishing things of no use or need.
00:08:14A banner here, a medal there.
00:08:16Children bewildered, in despair.
00:08:19Songs outlawed, play forbidden.
00:08:21Love ignored.
00:08:23It's outrageous.
00:08:24I know.
00:08:25But the worst crime of all is melting down the gold of the town for chimes.
00:08:29Trueson, for my sake, don't anger, Father.
00:08:31He angers me.
00:08:32It's time I spoke up.
00:08:34But I can't defy him.
00:08:36He could forbid our marriage.
00:08:37Today he hinted.
00:08:40Oh, accept without protest this new order.
00:08:42Just this once for me.
00:08:44Just this once.
00:08:46How many times have I turned from their crimes because you feared to anger him?
00:08:51Each silence brought a harsher measure.
00:08:53Now not a minute is left for play.
00:08:55Someone in Hamlin must protest.
00:08:57Arouse the people.
00:08:58Force a test.
00:08:59Of who is strongest.
00:09:00What is right.
00:09:01He and the council have the power.
00:09:04Would you ask me not to fight?
00:09:06Deprive me of my sight?
00:09:08To see the world through but one eye?
00:09:10Half the truth.
00:09:11And half the lie.
00:09:12It would be as if you say, love me every other day.
00:09:17Would you have my heart?
00:09:19In part.
00:09:19How can I tell you?
00:09:26How can I convey?
00:09:31What's deep inside me?
00:09:36Will I find a way?
00:09:39When you're near, then I fear there's a wall in between us yet unbroken.
00:10:01When you go, then I know what I might have explained remains unspoken.
00:10:23How can I tell you, how can I reveal what I hope someday you may also feel?
00:10:43If my heart could impose every secret it knows, you'd know how I love you.
00:11:07Oh, Mara, if you only saw things as I do, then you'd realize that I mean no harm to your father.
00:11:18My only desire is to right what's wrong and to have you believe in me.
00:11:23If my heart could impose every secret it knows, you'd know how I love you.
00:11:49A word of caution before we usher in the mayor, Hamelout.
00:12:00He'd stop at nothing to best us.
00:12:03Show the gentleman in.
00:12:05Remember, those who listen smiling and wise are never taken by surprise.
00:12:11Mercy is a virtue you'll find a plenty here, sir.
00:12:26We're doers, sir, not dreamers who cry into their beer, sir.
00:12:31I come to tell of a cruel and tragic plight, sir.
00:12:34The river of Vaser has overflowed its banks.
00:12:38All we possess has been washed away.
00:12:41The fair city of Hamelout is submerged.
00:12:45Our people have taken to the hills with scant clothing and no food.
00:12:51So utterly desolated is our city that even the rats have fled before the onrushing waters.
00:12:57There are no rats in Hamelin.
00:13:02Our needs are great.
00:13:05Children cold and hungry.
00:13:07Help us with food and shelter.
00:13:10Your kindness will rebuild our city.
00:13:13A pity.
00:13:15A deep-felt pity.
00:13:17Yes, once it was a lovely city.
00:13:20Good sir, we are deeply moved by your tragic plight.
00:13:22We'll search our purse and cast about for something worthy of Hamelout.
00:13:28Return to your people without further ado.
00:13:32We'll see what we can do for you.
00:13:35You will have the everlasting gratitude of our children, sir.
00:13:47Ah, me.
00:13:48Tis sad indeed to find an arrogant enemy in need.
00:13:52Our chief competitor wiped out.
00:13:55I feel a tear run down my snout.
00:13:58Three tears for the clockmakers of Hamelout.
00:14:00I take it you've reached your decision.
00:14:02We have.
00:14:03I take it we're unanimous, all agreed.
00:14:06We'll help them in their hour of need.
00:14:08What?
00:14:09We'll send our deepest sympathy.
00:14:11Of course.
00:14:13Indeed.
00:14:14I think the nicest way to tell them.
00:14:17Our gentlest sentiments on the softest vellum.
00:14:20Oh, yes.
00:14:22Together with suggestions on how to guard against future floods in their front yard.
00:14:37How nice of us.
00:14:38To give advice to one of our competitors.
00:14:39A word of warning, gentlemen.
00:14:41There is danger still within the very gates of Hamelin.
00:14:44With Hamelout not in competition?
00:14:46Beware of complacency.
00:14:48There are other rivals in this race.
00:14:50This is no time to slacken our pace.
00:14:52Let's put our backs in our work.
00:14:54More effort by twice.
00:14:56Nay, thrice.
00:14:56Good advice.
00:14:57Thrice the work around the clock.
00:14:59One for the pick.
00:15:00And two for the top.
00:15:02No time wasted for children in schooling and fooling.
00:15:06Nor women with their chatting and their tatting.
00:15:09No loss of a minute in any manner.
00:15:11If we're to win the good king's banner.
00:15:13I protest.
00:15:14I protest.
00:15:16Oh, it's only trucing.
00:15:18We're in official session.
00:15:19Get out.
00:15:21You'll hear me out.
00:15:22I'll make it plain for all to see how monstrous is your new decree.
00:15:26And he will be my son-in-law.
00:15:28Why, I refuse.
00:15:29It is not hard to see.
00:15:31Your son-in-law I do not seek to be.
00:15:33Just husband to your daughter.
00:15:36Spouse to her?
00:15:37And not a thing to me?
00:15:39How silly can he be?
00:15:41Aye.
00:15:42You rob the children of learning, laughter, and play.
00:15:45And darken their lives in the sun of the day.
00:15:47You mock your neighbor in his hour of need.
00:15:50Blinded by arrogance.
00:15:52Bloated with greed.
00:15:54You're selling your souls in the shoddiest manner for a worthless rag a king calls a banner.
00:15:59A worthless rag?
00:16:01The banner of our king?
00:16:02Why, it's treason even to think such a thing.
00:16:05Hear me.
00:16:06Of all your stupid crimes, wasting our wealth for golden chimes is a crime for which we'll have to pay.
00:16:12Deprive your children and you'll rule the day.
00:16:15Who let him in?
00:16:16The man's a traitor to Hamelin.
00:16:18Let us throw him out.
00:16:20Throw him out.
00:16:25He would undermine our prestige.
00:16:27Prestige is a sort of a kind of a fame.
00:16:35It's the look of acclaim at the mention of your name.
00:16:39Prestige means to see like the best of your ilk.
00:16:42Have your mate down in silk.
00:16:44Though your children have no milk.
00:16:46You may be poor, but your prestige can be great.
00:16:49It's all in knowing whom to cultivate.
00:16:54Prestige is the feel and the smell of success.
00:16:57It's the one happiness every smart man must possess.
00:17:01Prestige is the thing people think you must be.
00:17:15Not to sue, but to zine.
00:17:17To the ultimate degree.
00:17:19Prestige is the large sum of gold that you've paid.
00:17:22For your coats, fancy, braid, just to hide a spot that's greed.
00:17:26Though all your creditors may press and besiege.
00:17:30They will respect you if you've got prestige.
00:17:34Prestige is the baddest you strive to amass.
00:17:37To be sure you surpass all the others in your plans.
00:17:42The Ghost takedat.
00:17:49The Ghost takedat.
00:18:02Prestige is a stamp saying you've made the grade
00:18:23When you're hungry, don't trade your prestige for gold or jade
00:18:27The key to prestige isn't why, but it's how
00:18:31When you're met, do they bow, do they pass you all, cow-cow
00:18:34If you should lose prestige, then you'll bet you're dead
00:18:38Make sure that you eat cake if there's no bread
00:18:42Prestige is a thing that we constantly chase
00:18:46What our hands must embrace
00:18:47When we're faced with saving fate
00:19:01Prestige is the praise that your cohorts bestow
00:19:29Set your ego aglow, though you know it isn't so
00:19:32Prestige is a dinner they give you for fun
00:19:36What they wouldn't have done when you really needed one
00:19:40Don't take the credit when results are in doubt
00:19:43Wait till you're certain how it all turned out
00:19:47Prestige is the asset that you'll please
00:19:50To reprise, making sure no one sees
00:19:53All the liabilities
00:19:56Let us see you
00:20:15She'll be safe here.
00:20:37John!
00:20:39Why don't you do something?
00:20:46Why don't you do something?
00:20:48Why don't you do something?
00:20:54Why don't you do something?
00:21:09Why don't you do something?
00:21:15Why don't you do something?
00:21:30Why don't you do something?
00:21:36For Mayor's office, we're calling on the Mayor.
00:21:53What is the meaning of this?
00:21:59A meeting is in progress.
00:22:00You have not been asked here.
00:22:02Help us.
00:22:03You have to do something.
00:22:05All complaints must be in writing.
00:22:09Father, we've been invaded.
00:22:11Invasion?
00:22:12Send a messenger to the king.
00:22:14We'll get the army.
00:22:15It must be the refugees from Hamlet.
00:22:17They will not invade us with their misfortune.
00:22:20Not by people, Father.
00:22:21We've been invaded by...
00:22:22Ouch!
00:22:28It's a plot.
00:22:29An evil conspiracy.
00:22:30The Hamloutians have sent their rats to us.
00:22:32What audacity?
00:22:33I'll issue forthwith a proclamation.
00:22:35Ouch!
00:22:36Tommy!
00:22:37Oh, Father, not a proclamation.
00:22:39We need a fumigation to get rid of them.
00:22:41Aye, aye, that's right.
00:22:43Quiet.
00:22:45Everyone be calm.
00:22:47I'll prove that this is just a false alarm.
00:22:49Let's put an end to this agitation.
00:22:51Your counsel has the situation firm in hand.
00:22:55Here is my proclamation to be written on the finest vellum.
00:22:59It is herewith decreed that in this hour of need, each and every citizen will employ his wit and wisdom and ingenuity
00:23:12to end this willful act of retaliation of Hamlet, the meanest town in the nation.
00:23:18Hear, hear.
00:23:19We know how, and we'll show how that we know how.
00:23:24We don't see how a decree will drive the creatures from Hamelin.
00:23:27They chase the dogs and kill the cats.
00:23:29And bite the babies in their cradles.
00:23:31And eat the cheese right out the back.
00:23:33And lick the soup from the crooks on ladles.
00:23:34Split off the kegs of solid sprouts.
00:23:36Make nest a side man's sunny hat.
00:23:38And even spoil the women's chats.
00:23:39But God is speaking.
00:23:40We're speaking.
00:23:41We're speaking.
00:23:42We're speaking.
00:23:42We're speaking.
00:23:42We're speaking.
00:23:43We're speaking.
00:23:43We're speaking.
00:23:43Good people.
00:23:45Rest assured, your mayor and his council will treat this emergency with a keen sense of urgency.
00:23:53I promise you, the councillors will think as hard as every other citizen for the duration of the crisis.
00:23:59Meanwhile, before we give you a solution for this plague, don't stand there looking vague.
00:24:05Beat them with brooms.
00:24:07Kill them with stones.
00:24:08Remember, the emissary of the king will tolerate no such thing.
00:24:14Mara, Truson, listen.
00:24:16The music of the piper.
00:24:19Oh, Paul, you're imagining it again.
00:24:21Truson, listen.
00:24:22You hear it, don't you?
00:24:24Yes, I think I do.
00:24:25Yes.
00:24:26No, Truson, there is no music.
00:24:34He thinks our mayor is a naughty.
00:24:37That's where he's council shocking to think we buy gowns lined with ermine for adults who can't or won't determine how to rid our town of vermin.
00:24:44Aye, better give your brains a racking.
00:24:46Find the remedy that's lacking.
00:24:48As sure as fate, we'll send you packing.
00:24:50Aye.
00:24:51We'll have a straight line.
00:24:52Yes.
00:24:52We'll have a packing.
00:24:54Bolt the door.
00:25:00Did I promise too much when I said you'd think?
00:25:07Remember, everything's at stake.
00:25:10Our action now may make or break us.
00:25:13Devil take us.
00:25:14This spot is hot.
00:25:15Now let's be calm and not forget, we in Hamlin live by reason, regardless of the season.
00:25:21Only in reason's light can we end this blight.
00:25:25I haven't.
00:25:26It's as simple as pork and sauerkraut.
00:25:28We'll thud them out.
00:25:30And suffer the fate of Hamel out.
00:25:31The council is a clown.
00:25:33Or worse, Hamlin's in the grip of a curse.
00:25:36Let's face it, the situation's tragic.
00:25:37We'll not be saved.
00:25:40Saved by magic.
00:25:42Did you call me?
00:25:44Call me.
00:25:46Call me.
00:25:48Call me.
00:25:51Call me.
00:25:53Call me.
00:25:56The door was bolted.
00:25:58Who are you?
00:26:00Although I wear no robe or sable, it so happens that I'm able to charm all creatures neath the sun.
00:26:07That creep or swim or fly or run.
00:26:09If you have an invention, I attract attention.
00:26:13Chiefly with a secret charm.
00:26:15I'm creatures that do people harm.
00:26:18The mole, the toad, the noot, and viper.
00:26:22Who doesn't know the Pied Piper?
00:26:25You have a trap.
00:26:26Ah, always their search for the better trap.
00:26:30And other forms of tastier pap.
00:26:32So dear to the hearts of every sap.
00:26:35No insult, Your Honor.
00:26:36On this, a special tune I'll play.
00:26:39And lure the racks away.
00:26:40Before there dawns another day.
00:26:42If such a thing can really be,
00:26:45you're the very man for me.
00:26:47There will be a fee.
00:26:49Naturally.
00:26:50I think you'll find our only fault is generosity.
00:26:53Then we'll have no difficulty striking a bargain.
00:26:55How much money in your treasuries?
00:26:58Fifty thousand guilders.
00:26:59Oh!
00:27:02An idle boast, sir.
00:27:04You fool.
00:27:05We'll be roasted over a pit for your lack of wit.
00:27:09Makers of baubles, chimes, and clocks.
00:27:12Leaders in virtue.
00:27:14Character builders.
00:27:15To rid your town of this verminous pox,
00:27:18my fee is fifty thousand guilders.
00:27:21Fifty thousand?
00:27:22He jokes!
00:27:23It's a hoax!
00:27:24Begone, you fraud!
00:27:26On your way!
00:27:28We have no time for your preposterous play.
00:27:31I don't hear anything from that pipe.
00:27:49Not a sound.
00:27:50What manner of music can it be that we can't hear it?
00:27:53And yet we see our children hear it.
00:27:55But I can't hear it.
00:28:03You do, don't you, Trucy?
00:28:04Yes.
00:28:17Magic, your honor.
00:28:18The odd man can play a tune on his pipe
00:28:19that none but the children hear.
00:28:21Tinker?
00:28:22Prankster?
00:28:23Enough of this hoax.
00:28:24We'll have no more of your graceless jokes.
00:28:27It is but music, your honor.
00:28:29I hear no music from your pipe.
00:28:31Try as I can.
00:28:32On your way, you tricky scamp.
00:28:34We have no need of you.
00:28:38And the rats?
00:28:39Have you need for them?
00:28:41Who else can get them out of your town?
00:28:43Tell us, Piper, is it true?
00:28:44Can you send them on their way?
00:28:46With the music that I'll play.
00:28:49Music we cannot hear?
00:28:51No.
00:28:53The music I play for rats, you'll hear.
00:28:57For it, for it you'll have a sensitive ear.
00:29:01Is it true?
00:29:02Why should we put our faith in you?
00:29:04In Tartary, I used my magic charm
00:29:12To chase a swarm of gnats
00:29:14And in Asia, I erased
00:29:17Noxious broods of vampire bats
00:29:20I will take a smaller brawny rat
00:29:22A black or tawny rat
00:29:23A fat or scorny rat
00:29:25And I'll exterminate them
00:29:26With the extraordinary magic
00:29:28Here in my pipe
00:29:29In Atterby, with just a tiny thrill
00:29:33I slew a million toads
00:29:36They obstructed all the roads
00:29:39And delayed the wagon loads
00:29:41All your mama and your papa rats
00:29:44Your smaller whopper rats
00:29:45Your most improper rats
00:29:46Will be persuaded all to join their ancestors
00:29:48When I decide the time will be right
00:29:50What you say is fabulous and wondrous
00:29:56Or is it true?
00:29:58Of course it's true
00:29:59It can't be true
00:30:00I'll prove it's true
00:30:01Then we will applaud you loud and wondrous
00:30:07Hold your applause, hold your applause
00:30:10Why should we pause?
00:30:11Simply because I haven't finished
00:30:13They had a locust plague in Austerlids
00:30:21That brought prodigious harm
00:30:23They succumbed unto my charm
00:30:26And I soon quelled that alarm
00:30:28And your rodents, I am confident
00:30:31Will have affinity for my finest instrument
00:30:33For they are music lovers
00:30:34And they'll want to hear the concert
00:30:36I perform on my pipe
00:30:37In Syria, problem serious
00:30:42Mysterious, I solved
00:30:45I drove out a deadly bee
00:30:48That no human I could see
00:30:50And I promise you exactly
00:30:52That's what I intend to do
00:30:54To your assorted rats
00:30:55You're gay and friskers
00:30:56Your old rats with whiskers
00:30:57Rats of every hue
00:30:58And rats of each type
00:30:59Great standing danger
00:31:03We admire you
00:31:05I'll straighten out your ugly mess
00:31:08He can't relieve our great distress
00:31:10I'll gladly do the job for you
00:31:19He's not the one to get it done
00:31:20He's not the one
00:31:21Good people kindly stop your bickering
00:31:27Time's flickering away
00:31:30We will not pay him with guilders in the treasury
00:31:37Our tower must have its golden chimes
00:31:40Unlike us, the man is sly
00:31:43Unscrupulous
00:31:45We've suffered too much strain
00:31:47Seeking to outwit his brain
00:31:48I'll make a slightly different start
00:31:52I'll touch his heart
00:31:54In Deerodawa by the river Nile
00:31:57A crocodile struck fear
00:31:59He was forty cubits long
00:32:02Fifty men were not as strong
00:32:04All that pleased were fervent
00:32:06So your humble servant
00:32:07Played an obligato
00:32:08Lento and robato
00:32:09He grew docile
00:32:10Deader than a fossil
00:32:11No more crocodile
00:32:12Just like that
00:32:13You've heard of what I've done with bats
00:32:16With vipers, toads, and newts, and gnats
00:32:19And what I've done with crocodiles and bats
00:32:22I'll do the same with all of your rats
00:32:24Is that a form of address, sir?
00:32:34Merely a habit
00:32:35More like a vice
00:32:37A preface to discussing price
00:32:39I'm ready now to talk of your fee
00:32:41You have but to agree
00:32:42To pay your price would leave our treasury bare
00:32:45The money is worthless lying there
00:32:48What would you do with such a sum?
00:32:51Have fun
00:32:51What are you?
00:32:55What manner of man?
00:32:57Figure it out as best you can
00:32:59I'm a juggler, one might say
00:33:01I hold the night and the light of day
00:33:03In a world that's such a mess
00:33:05With little room for happiness
00:33:07I juggle it here and I toss it there
00:33:10I take from the fowl and I give to the fair
00:33:12With so much love in your heart, sir
00:33:15Surely you'll share a part, sir
00:33:16With the unhappy children of Hamelin?
00:33:18Yes!
00:33:21If truly you can end this plague
00:33:23This terrifying pestilence
00:33:25You'll be cherished in their minds
00:33:27A hundred years hence
00:33:29An honor, sir
00:33:30Worth more by far than money
00:33:32Will bring you joy
00:33:33And a certain bliss
00:33:35Beyond all dreams of avarice
00:33:37I offer you
00:33:39In the name of our children
00:33:41One thousand guilders
00:33:43Come again?
00:33:46It is beneath my dignity to bargain
00:33:48I'll make it ten
00:33:50Take it, Piper
00:33:51He knows my fee
00:33:53I offer you twenty
00:33:55That's more than plenty
00:33:56Please, we have a budget
00:33:58Budget
00:33:59The price is fifty
00:34:00The man's without conscience
00:34:02Minus a heart
00:34:03He deserves a faint fashion to fit him
00:34:06I'm forced most reluctantly
00:34:09To outwit him
00:34:10The urgency of this emergency
00:34:13Leaves us no choice
00:34:14Because of the hard-pressed state we're in
00:34:16You win
00:34:18Fifty thousand guilders
00:34:20You've lost your mind
00:34:22But not in advance
00:34:24Not until the vermin dance in a rout
00:34:26Every last one of them
00:34:28Back to Hamel out
00:34:29You've heard him good people
00:34:32To one and all
00:34:34The bargain's made
00:34:35Though he sounded more like a rusty gate
00:34:39He's agreed to pay the going rate
00:34:41For all the guys
00:34:42Now, little friends
00:34:49Go to your homes
00:34:50Sing your song
00:34:52And read your poems
00:34:53And have no fears
00:34:55The music I play
00:34:57Will not touch your ears
00:34:58At the rise of the moon
00:35:06When the sun goes down
00:35:07One plague will be gone
00:35:09From Hamelon Town
00:35:10He's stolen your wits
00:35:15How could you agree to such an exorbitant thing
00:35:17It's all we have in our treasury
00:35:18There'll be no gold for us to melt down
00:35:20For the chimes
00:35:21For the glory of Hamelon Town
00:35:23Gentlemen, gentlemen
00:35:25Such trembling emotion
00:35:27Let's drink a little soothing potion
00:35:30For such lack of faith
00:35:35You'll soon atone
00:35:36I was not made mere
00:35:38For my beauty alone
00:35:40Episode 15
00:35:46Oh
00:35:46Oh
00:35:46Oh
00:35:55Thank you
00:36:00Dear Truson, now the moon is rising.
00:36:20The moon is rising.
00:36:22Now we'll see if he is all he cracks himself up to be.
00:36:26Truson, I hear it.
00:36:33The music.
00:36:35I don't.
00:36:37Yes.
00:36:39Yes.
00:36:41Why don't you hear it?
00:36:43Why did you hear it this morning and not now?
00:36:49Can't you hear it now?
00:36:52No.
00:36:54Listen.
00:36:55I hear it.
00:36:57His pipe.
00:37:11Can you see them?
00:37:13Yes.
00:37:14Look at them run.
00:37:15Run.
00:37:15Run.
00:37:15Run.
00:37:24Don't fret, child.
00:37:41That frightening music won't last long.
00:37:59What music, Mother?
00:38:00Mother?
00:38:00It's unbelievable.
00:38:15They fell asleep as soon as the music started.
00:38:17No.
00:38:25Mother?
00:38:25No.
00:38:26My night I'm sorry.
00:38:30No.
00:38:31No.
00:38:32No.
00:38:33No.
00:38:33No.
00:38:34No.
00:38:35I'm sure.
00:38:35No.
00:38:36No.
00:38:38No.
00:38:38No.
00:38:42The Piper said the music wouldn't reach their ears.
00:39:12The Piper said the music wouldn't reach their ears.
00:39:42The Piper said the music wouldn't reach their ears.
00:40:12The Piper said the music wouldn't reach their ears.
00:40:42The Piper said the music wouldn't reach their ears.
00:41:12The Piper said the music wouldn't reach their ears.
00:41:42The Piper said the music wouldn't reach their ears.
00:41:54Citizens, your attention, I feel the gravest apprehension when joy is misdirected and
00:42:02unconfined.
00:42:03First, let us show gratitude for our good fortune.
00:42:07Let me hear for our good councillors a thunderous cheer.
00:42:16Modesty forbids another hero of this occasion, whose wit and wisdom ended the invasion.
00:42:22I seek no applause, nor any renown.
00:42:28All I did was to save the town, which is the mayor's duty.
00:42:32Now an emergency, a letter from the king's emissary.
00:42:36He's on his way.
00:42:37He'll be here today, and our work is not completed, so though the moment's joyous, let it not decoy
00:42:44us.
00:42:45Smelters, prepare the ovens for the guilders.
00:42:49Good women, forget powder and puff and show you're made of sterner stuff.
00:42:54Let every kettle test your feminine mettle.
00:42:57What's merely spick now makes panner, and Hamelintown will win the banner.
00:43:03Improve each shining hour.
00:43:05Back to your work on the tower.
00:43:07And now, gentlemen, to the council room and our own serious tasks.
00:43:15Let's break up the casks of cheeses and wines and make sure everything's tasty from soup to
00:43:22pastry.
00:43:23Mr. Mayor, the piper's waiting for his feet.
00:43:28I'll see him presently.
00:43:30I have a request, sir.
00:43:32At the feast, at least it would be proper to have the children sing.
00:43:35How absurd.
00:43:36The children are not even to be seen, much less heard.
00:43:40But without the children, this is no town.
00:43:43If there's anything the king's emissary detests.
00:43:46Yes, even worse than rats.
00:43:48It's a bunch of noisy brats at dinner.
00:43:52You can spoil the taste of rarest wine with some little darlings, whale and whine.
00:43:58There's nothing makes food taste more vile than the yammer and clamor of a juvenile.
00:44:05By the way, where are the children?
00:44:08They're with the piper, father.
00:44:09But this is no time to pause.
00:44:12Have them gather straws.
00:44:13Cryer.
00:44:14Carry my message to them.
00:44:15Rewards for honest work.
00:44:17But woe to those who shirk.
00:44:31Flim flam flu, flim flam flu, the world is full of wonder, man, and magic.
00:44:38I can pull a twinkling star from a hat, then I'll make it disappear just like that.
00:44:46And the magic power in the smile you possess turns a frown upside down for you.
00:44:57You will find it easy for all you have to do is tell yourself you know the secret.
00:45:02Flim flam flu, flim flam flu, flim flam flu, it really isn't extraordinary.
00:45:19I can make the rain to fall on you too, then I'll cause the sun to shine just on you.
00:45:30If there is a cloud in the sky, if there is a cloud in the sky, it rolls by, by and by, and the sun comes through.
00:45:40What can make you happy when you are feeling blue?
00:45:45Just fill your thoughts with lots of sunshine.
00:45:48Flim flam flu.
00:45:51Flim, flam, flue
00:46:17Flim, flam, flue
00:46:19You have to know the way to go about it
00:46:22I can make an apple a ball of snow
00:46:26I can get a robin song from a crow
00:46:30You can find the beauty in all you perceive
00:46:36Just believe that it's there in view
00:46:41Always look for good things and they will come to you
00:46:46Look with your heart and you will find it
00:46:48Flim, flam, flue
00:46:52Flim, flam, flue
00:47:09Flim, flam, flue
00:47:11You'd be amazed at what you can accomplish
00:47:15I can change the color of milk to red
00:47:19Would you like a halo round your head?
00:47:23Don't you sit and mope
00:47:26Don't you lose any hope
00:47:29When the things that you plan fall through
00:47:34Just you keep on dreaming and they will all come true
00:47:38The very day you least expect
00:47:40Flim, flim, flam, flue
00:47:45Flim, flam, flue
00:47:47Flim, flam, flam, flam
00:47:53To work. By the mayor's order.
00:47:55Gather straws from the bricks and none of your rascally tricks.
00:48:00The mayor's orders.
00:48:01The mayor's orders.
00:48:06Mother, Pied Piper was just in the classroom.
00:48:08Now, now, now. Wait just a minute.
00:48:11What is it, Johnny?
00:48:12The Pied Piper was just in the schoolroom and he did all sorts of magic things.
00:48:16He turned an apple into a snowball.
00:48:18He made the milk turn red.
00:48:19And more than that, he rid us of those terrible rats.
00:48:23Oh, Mother, I hope he never leaves.
00:48:25Isn't there some way we can make him stay?
00:48:28Maybe.
00:48:29If we could turn snowballs back into apples.
00:48:39The burdens of office.
00:48:45The time has come to pay the Piper.
00:48:48But of course.
00:48:49In Hamlet, there's no frugality.
00:48:52Our spirit flows with liberality.
00:48:55My worthy colleague will bring the receipt.
00:48:58All you have to do is sign on the designated dotted line.
00:49:02Without reading, you'd have me sign?
00:49:03Your signature's a mere formality required in any municipality.
00:49:09Just to say you got your pay.
00:49:11Come on, Piper, we're in a hurry.
00:49:14I think I'd better read it.
00:49:15You'll find nothing improper, sir.
00:49:17Just here and there a clause to conform with custom and the laws.
00:49:22I'll read it.
00:49:23Well, we're busy men.
00:49:25But if you must, then unroll the scroll.
00:49:36Just here and there a clause to conform with the laws.
00:49:39To be held in escrow for a hundred years.
00:49:45A mere formality regarding your fee.
00:49:48A hedge against litigation, inflation, any currency.
00:49:52I see.
00:49:53And this?
00:49:57A guarantee in warranty.
00:49:59A stipulation that your fee be forfeit should there be pollution of the river.
00:50:02No danger, of course.
00:50:04But required by the courts under the law of torts.
00:50:11And this about rebuilding roads.
00:50:14Required by our building codes.
00:50:16I see as we go up the line, the print gets rather fine.
00:50:26Reparations.
00:50:26A safeguard for future generations.
00:50:33Oh, this is best.
00:50:35Far cleverer than the rest.
00:50:37A mere legal art.
00:50:39Protecting the party of the first part.
00:50:41I am now to deposit with you the sum of one thousand guilders.
00:50:46Guaranteeing the plague will never return.
00:50:49And if by chance they do, then I owe you...
00:50:52Fifty thousand guilders.
00:50:56Man of Hamelin, settle your debt.
00:50:58Is that a threat?
00:50:59All we ask is meet our stipulations.
00:51:02Maneuvers and manipulations.
00:51:04How dare you, sir.
00:51:05In all our dealings to prevent ill feelings, we require a legal form.
00:51:10Tis no departure from the norm.
00:51:11Come, fellow, your name on paper.
00:51:13As a rule, I refrain from calling any man a fool.
00:51:19Heed me now.
00:51:24I'll wait until your clock strikes the hour.
00:51:26Don't let me go away without my pay.
00:51:31Here he comes.
00:51:42And there are claws.
00:51:43Hail to the where-as.
00:51:44I'm on.
00:51:46Give the order.
00:51:47Now we'll have golden chimes.
00:51:49Send the guilders to the smelters.
00:51:51Prestige is a knack.
00:51:56It's a skill.
00:51:57It's an art.
00:51:58Knowing how to outsmart with a sleight of hand and heart.
00:52:02Prestige is a thing, not acquired in a day.
00:52:05You must learn every way to avoid and to delay.
00:52:09You can attain prestige by hook or by croak.
00:52:13And if the bait is right, you need no hook.
00:52:17We've just gained prestige from a type that's supreme.
00:52:20Before we just pull the scheme that suppress these seeker dreams.
00:52:34Oh, Mr. Piper, I hope I'm not disturbing you.
00:52:38I was just gathering wool from the clouds in the sky.
00:52:42But the clouds blow away when a boy comes by.
00:52:44Sir, we saw what happened with the mayor and you.
00:52:49And Trueson and I, well, we don't want you to go away.
00:52:54I know that, son.
00:52:55Trueson says you mustn't judge us all by the men in our town hall.
00:53:00He's gone to the people to plead for them to keep their word.
00:53:05I hope he succeeds for their sake.
00:53:08I say, Jez, we're told
00:53:14All that glitters is not gold
00:53:18Many things may be more bright
00:53:23There's none richer than
00:53:30He who honors fellow man
00:53:33That's a value real and right
00:53:39Man can strive for riches
00:53:45A natural desire
00:53:48But he mustn't overlook a greater goal
00:53:54For what will he profit
00:54:00By something he'll acquire
00:54:04If in finding what he gains
00:54:10He'll lose his soul
00:54:12A man who's unwise
00:54:18Only sees things with his eyes
00:54:23Things that can be bought for soul
00:54:27We'll find on the day
00:54:34All the glitter dims away
00:54:39What he thought was pure
00:54:43Was poor fool's gold
00:54:50I wish I didn't have to go away
00:54:55Then you'll stay?
00:54:59In a way
00:55:00Whenever you hear a certain sound
00:55:02I'll be around
00:55:03Good citizens, hear me
00:55:09You
00:55:10A word with you about the Piper
00:55:13To whom we owe so much
00:55:14This is no time to tarry
00:55:15With all this stuff to carry
00:55:16The Piper wants his pay
00:55:19And the mayor's refused him
00:55:20Now it's up to us to see he gets his due
00:55:22Finance is beyond our province
00:55:23This is the council you must convince
00:55:25Not so
00:55:26It is your honor that the council cheapens
00:55:27Your worthless people
00:55:28It is your vow to pay that he breaks now
00:55:31Well, we don't want that
00:55:33Hush
00:55:33Woman
00:55:33What do you know of such complicated affairs?
00:55:36They're not the mayor's guilders, are they?
00:55:38Listen to who's talking
00:55:39There goes the Piper
00:55:40Wait, Piper
00:55:45Wait, Piper
00:55:46They don't understand
00:55:47Somewhere in my mind
00:55:50I hear a note of music
00:55:52Yet to be played for men
00:55:53Who will not hear it
00:56:03However long your lives may be
00:56:16You live in darkest memory
00:56:19To rule the day you sent the Piper from you
00:56:22Without his pay
00:56:23There goes the Piper from you
00:56:24There goes the Piper from you
00:56:24There goes the Piper from you
00:56:25There goes the Piper from you
00:56:26There goes the Piper from you
00:56:27There goes the Piper from you
00:56:28There goes the Piper from you
00:56:29There goes the Piper from you
00:56:30There goes the Piper from you
00:56:31There goes the Piper from you
00:56:32There goes the Piper from you
00:56:33There goes the Piper from you
00:56:34There goes the Piper from you
00:56:35My heart will fly to heaven
00:57:02On the day he'll be mine
00:57:05We'll be standing on the threshold
00:57:09Of a moment divine
00:57:12And from that day forever
00:57:16We will live hand in hand
00:57:20It's the day of days
00:57:22The one for which I've dreamed
00:57:25And I've planned
00:57:27If it is Trucen you moon about
00:57:37He's best for God
00:57:38I've happier plans for you
00:57:40Than marriage to Hamelin's misbegot
00:57:41But father it's Trucen I love
00:57:44And it's he I intend to wed
00:57:45Don't be a silly child
00:57:47It is true you're soon to be a bride
00:57:49But the groom to be
00:57:51I decide
00:57:53And if my plans bear fruit
00:57:55Your hand will be won
00:57:57By the king's emissary
00:57:59My future son
00:58:01Such a match will enhance my prestige
00:58:03I'll be honored
00:58:05Respected
00:58:06Easily re-elected
00:58:09But I don't want to marry
00:58:10The king's emissary
00:58:11I don't even know him
00:58:12Know him you shall
00:58:14And without delay
00:58:14You'll meet him at the gate today
00:58:16Make haste
00:58:17Don't waste another second
00:58:18Array yourself in your finest gown
00:58:21The king's emissary
00:58:22Must look on you
00:58:23As the fairest
00:58:25In our fair town
00:58:27But I must see Trucen now
00:58:29Not now or ever
00:58:30You'll see him never
00:58:31No one can keep us apart
00:58:33We'll see
00:58:34Now my colleagues remember
00:58:44Not a word about the chimes
00:58:46Until they are ready
00:58:47Even if he asks a hundred times
00:58:49To see them
00:58:50Be steady
00:58:51Divert him
00:58:52Engage him
00:58:53Keep his mind on other things
00:58:55Until he hears
00:58:56The clock that brings
00:58:57Its golden notes
00:58:58Understood?
00:59:00Yes
00:59:00I'll handle the meeting
00:59:02And the greeting
00:59:03Mr. Mayor
00:59:04For the last time
00:59:07Pay the piper
00:59:08Why you foolish fellow
00:59:10We did our part
00:59:11Trickery
00:59:12Deceit
00:59:12The king's emissary
00:59:14Will be told about Hamelin
00:59:15Shiny without
00:59:16Tarnished within
00:59:17You'll win no banner
00:59:18While I can speak
00:59:19Speak
00:59:20Where we'll put you
00:59:22We'll hear no shriek
00:59:23Arrest this petty fog
00:59:25This self-seeking demagogue
00:59:28What are the charges?
00:59:30Troublemaker
00:59:31Sower of treason
00:59:32Disloyalty
00:59:34Or loss of reason
00:59:35We'll find the proper ordinance
00:59:37To cover your offense
00:59:38And wait with him
00:59:39We give you a welcome

01:00:23The constellation
01:00:24Of Orion
01:00:25We know the future
01:00:30Of our city
01:00:31Is in your hands

01:01:03I am not attuned
01:01:05To such
01:01:06Rigorous enthusiasm
01:01:08Spare me a nervous spasm
01:01:10And now I dare say
01:01:12That you have a key
01:01:13To offer me
01:01:14Why, yes, excellency
01:01:16Welcome
01:01:31Welcome
01:01:39Welcome, sire
01:01:40A symbol of our gratitude
01:01:42And our
01:01:43Et cetera, et cetera, et cetera
01:01:45Good fellow before you start
01:01:47I know that speech by heart
01:01:48And now, no doubt
01:01:50You have a daughter
01:01:51Somewhere about to
01:01:52Present to me
01:01:53Excellency
01:01:55How did you know?
01:01:58It's always so
01:01:59It wasn't always thus
01:02:15And, uh, now let me see
01:02:20Uh, what, uh, brought me here
01:02:22To this, uh, Hamlet of Hamelin
01:02:25The banner, excellency
01:02:28Oh, yes, yes, yes
01:02:30The competition
01:02:31Get on with it, mayor
01:02:33You see, my time has a limit
01:02:35I have another place to visit
01:02:37A city called Hamelout
01:02:39Hamelout
01:02:40Hamelout
01:02:43I'm sorry
01:02:44Truly sorry
01:02:45But you'll find that this time
01:02:48A visit to poor, unfortunate Hamelout
01:02:50A waste of your precious time
01:02:52I fear Hamelout
01:02:55Will not vie for honors
01:02:56In the competition this year
01:02:57Besides
01:02:58We thought you'd wish to dine first
01:03:01Uh, dinner, no
01:03:03But, uh, I do have a
01:03:05Choking thirst
01:03:07His excellency has a thirst
01:03:09Bring out the wines
01:03:10So I kept the lady in waiting
01:03:15Waiting
01:03:16Waiting
01:03:17Waiting
01:03:18And waiting
01:03:19Let's get down to the business at hand
01:03:23Uh, what exhibit am I to view?
01:03:29Not yet, Your Excellency
01:03:30The clockmaker's work on the chimes
01:03:32Is not nearly through
01:03:33Let's play him with wine
01:03:35A little more won't hurt him
01:03:36No, no, he's had his fill
01:03:38We must find other means
01:03:40To divert him
01:03:41Uh, chess?
01:03:43Uh, now, now, gentlemen
01:03:47Let's proceed
01:03:48A little less talk
01:03:49A little more speed
01:03:50Uh, patience, noble sire
01:03:52Let me tempt your palate
01:03:54These Arabian plums
01:03:56Are ripe and succulent
01:03:59The nectar of Beaujolais grapes
01:04:01Can temper a temper
01:04:03That's, uh, choculent
01:04:04Dispersin' melon
01:04:06And not too tart
01:04:07Not too melon
01:04:08No, no fruit for me
01:04:10Look what an apple did
01:04:12To that poor fellow
01:04:13No!
01:04:15No, enough of this feasting and cheer
01:04:17Uh, let's get on with, uh
01:04:18Whatever the occasion
01:04:20That brought me here
01:04:21All in good time, Your Excellency
01:04:23Uh, time, time
01:04:24It has something to do with a clock
01:04:26That's it!
01:04:28Your Excellency
01:04:29Uh, before your official inspection
01:04:31May I turn your attention
01:04:32In this direction?
01:04:34Uh, you may
01:04:39You may
01:04:39You may
01:04:41You may
01:04:43Quickly, Truson
01:05:07I have a key
01:05:08The jailer's a friend
01:05:09You must escape
01:05:10I can't leave, no
01:05:12But why?
01:05:14I want to go with you
01:05:16No, Mara
01:05:17Running away is not the solution
01:05:19Don't you see?
01:05:22We'll not find peace anywhere else
01:05:23Until we find it here first
01:05:25But I fear for your safety
01:05:28But I fear for your safety if you stay
01:05:29I know they mean to harm you
01:05:31You said you were willing to run away with me
01:05:33Are you just as willing to stay here in Hamlin?
01:05:37Stand beside me while I fight?
01:05:39Yes, my darling
01:05:44How can I tell you
01:05:49Now at last I see
01:05:54Things that were hidden
01:05:59Now are clear to me
01:06:05Now you're near
01:06:10There's no fear
01:06:15For the wall in between us
01:06:20Has been broken
01:06:25Now you know
01:06:30I won't go
01:06:34What remained unexplained
01:06:40Will now be spoken
01:06:45How can I tell you
01:06:52Never will we part
01:06:56My eyes are open
01:07:01Now they see your heart
01:07:06Doubt is gone
01:07:11From now on

01:08:04He's gone
01:08:05Yes, gone
01:08:07And now I'll honor with him
01:08:08That's what I fear
01:08:09What the piper will do to us?
01:08:11No
01:08:12What we've done to ourselves
01:08:14I'm afraid of music
01:08:20I can't hear

01:14:48Life is only
01:14:53An empty dream
01:15:00Your honor
01:15:22I know you and your counselors
01:15:26Are busy with important affairs
01:15:27And I'll only take a moment
01:15:29And I'll only take a moment
01:15:29Of your time
01:15:29It's about Johnny
01:15:32Who's Johnny?
01:15:37He's my son
01:15:38You remember the boy
01:15:41With the curly red hair
01:15:43The boy that opened
01:15:44Your carriage door
01:15:45For you once
01:15:46He's gone
01:15:49Looked everywhere
01:15:52And
01:15:52I can't seem to find him
01:15:55And I know such
01:15:59Men as wise as you can
01:16:00Surely help me find
01:16:02A small boy
01:16:03Why don't you answer me?
01:16:12Your decisions have always been
01:16:13So quick and so clever
01:16:15Like the way you handle
01:16:16A piper
01:16:17I understand your concern
01:16:21For our welfare
01:16:22And
01:16:22I won't bother you again ever
01:16:24But he's only just a baby
01:16:29Your honor
01:16:33I know you understand
01:16:36Because you have a child
01:16:39Of your own
01:16:45We've been up all night
01:16:52And the sun will rise in a minute
01:16:55This mountain's solid granite
01:16:57I don't believe they ever went in it
01:16:59It was you who saw them go
01:17:01Beware when their mother's woe
01:17:03Turns to wrath
01:17:04Where's the mayor?
01:17:05We're tired of his speeches
01:17:07And his deceit
01:17:08He must be around here somewhere
01:17:10Our patience is at an end
01:17:11We demand to see the mayor
01:17:13Where is he?
01:17:14They're blasting up in the mountainside
01:17:16With a cannon
01:17:17That will surely bring back your children
01:17:19Cannon and artillery?
01:17:23What medicine for our misery
01:17:25Now its ingredients
01:17:27Must be blended with the strictest obedience
01:17:30One part
01:17:32White powder
01:17:33There we go
01:17:35And one part
01:17:37One part
01:17:39Black
01:17:40And two parts
01:17:43Sulfur
01:17:44There we are
01:17:46To complete the stack
01:17:50Let's see
01:17:51One pinch
01:17:52For the pot
01:17:53You there
01:17:56Clean the cannon
01:17:57And insert the ball
01:17:59And I'll assign tasks
01:18:01For one and all
01:18:02I've figured the target
01:18:05I've measured the distance
01:18:07I've even allowed for
01:18:10Wind resistance
01:18:11Oh incidentally
01:18:13I once wrote a directory
01:18:15On missiles and their trajectory
01:18:18I blew up a fortress
01:18:20Killed 104
01:18:21I'd have won a medal
01:18:23But we weren't at war
01:18:24Fusilier
01:18:27There are you in the rear
01:18:28Come here
01:18:31Ready the fuse
01:18:33No time to lose
01:18:35Apply the light
01:18:36And I'll watch the flight
01:18:38Your excellency
01:18:40If I do
01:18:42There'll be a big hole
01:18:44In you
01:18:44I don't mean to offend
01:18:46But you see
01:18:47You're standing
01:18:48At the wrong end
01:18:49How clever
01:18:52Of you to mention
01:18:53I merely wanted to see
01:18:54If you were paying attention
01:18:56The campaign is over
01:19:17The last shot is fired
01:19:18And I am tired
01:19:19We blasted this mountain
01:19:21Inside out
01:19:22And nary a cry
01:19:23From a child
01:19:24We must find a way
01:19:25To save their lives
01:19:26The votes of the husbands
01:19:27The wrath of their wives
01:19:29You set my nerves
01:19:30At Twitter
01:19:31With all this bitterness
01:19:32Lucky my litter
01:19:33No, no, don't go
01:19:35Noble
01:19:35Oh, it's suddenly
01:19:36Too absurd
01:19:37Children lured by a piper
01:19:39Whose music
01:19:40No one's heard
01:19:40What children
01:19:42Do you speak of
01:19:43Ray
01:19:43I saw not one
01:19:44Throughout the day
01:19:45Anywhere
01:19:48Methinks I smell
01:19:50Conspiracy
01:19:51Mayhap
01:19:53Get up
01:19:55What ingratitude
01:20:03Father
01:20:06Everyone's looking for you
01:20:07There's trouble in the air
01:20:09The people are waiting
01:20:10In the square
01:20:11Eh
01:20:11Oh, of course
01:20:13Well, I'll be there
01:20:13They know that they
01:20:14Can trust their mayor
01:20:15To do what?
01:20:16To do what?
01:20:17Quiet!
01:20:20Stop squealing and squeaking
01:20:21As if you were rats
01:20:22Remember that you're bureaucrats
01:20:24You've done it before
01:20:26We'll do it again
01:20:27We'll manage them
01:20:27You have a strategy?
01:20:29It's as old as the kingdom
01:20:30I know it by rote
01:20:31To escape their wrath
01:20:33Escape the goat
01:20:35And the person
01:20:36Truson
01:20:38Oh, no, father
01:20:40Who's the cause
01:20:48Of your sorrow and misery?
01:20:49Who's to blame
01:20:50For this devil tree?
01:20:52That viper
01:20:52The piper
01:20:53Who brought him here?
01:20:54Let grief
01:20:55Not dim our memories
01:20:56We are victims
01:20:57Of truce and sorceries
01:20:58Let not sorrow
01:21:02Blight our reason
01:21:03Truson must be hanged
01:21:05For treason
01:21:05It's not true
01:21:09He did not but say
01:21:10We had a debt to pay
01:21:12What further proof
01:21:14Is needed of his sorcery?
01:21:16He had turned my child
01:21:17Against me
01:21:17He's the culprit
01:21:19He's the one
01:21:20Who lost your daughter
01:21:21And lost your son
01:21:22Mr. Mayor
01:21:23Hanging me
01:21:25Will never bring voices
01:21:26Back to laugh
01:21:27And sing
01:21:28He's right
01:21:29We want our children
01:21:31Did not truce and rebel
01:21:35In the music of that devil
01:21:37The piper
01:21:38Which none of us heard
01:21:39I tell you
01:21:40They're in league
01:21:40They even look alike
01:21:41No
01:21:42No, father
01:21:44There's music all around us
01:21:45That you will never hear
01:21:47While the clink of the golden gilder
01:21:48Rings loudest in your ear
01:21:50Our hearts must find a way
01:21:54To accept the bitter fate
01:21:55Of all who fail
01:21:56To pay the piper
01:21:57You've lost your children
01:21:59A heart-wounding blow
01:22:01Yet they lost their parents
01:22:02Long ago
01:22:03But is there nothing we can do
01:22:07Seek your heart's relief
01:22:09And acceptance of your fate
01:22:10And find consolation
01:22:12In helping others
01:22:13People of Hamelin
01:22:14Be not misled
01:22:16By this criminal's harangue
01:22:18First things first
01:22:19Let's see this scandal hang
01:22:22Then for all the world to see
01:22:24For our children
01:22:25A shining golden plaque
01:22:27In loving memory
01:22:30No golden plaque
01:22:32Will ever return your children
01:22:34There is a way
01:22:35That you can find solace
01:22:36The homeless children of Hamelin
01:22:39Would be warmed with our love
01:22:40And our treasury's gilders
01:22:42We will
01:22:43Instead of being saddened
01:22:48By your grief
01:22:48You're maddened
01:22:49Mark you on another calmer day
01:22:51You'll see that mine
01:22:52Was the wiser way
01:22:53What he calls love and decency
01:22:55Is the shortest road to bankruptcy
01:22:57Enough of talk that covers greed
01:23:00Fathers and mothers have a need
01:23:02To seek an end to grief and sorrow
01:23:04To face with hope a new tomorrow
01:23:06The time has come
01:23:08To make a change
01:23:23Mara
01:23:25How better to start Paul on his mission of mercy
01:23:52And for us to pray
01:23:54May the news of our determination
01:23:57Spread throughout the land
01:23:58The grieving parents of Hamelin
01:24:00Take all children to their hearts
01:24:02As their own kin
01:24:04Oh father in thy words
01:24:11Suffer little children to come unto us
01:24:14As we kneel in silent prayer
01:24:16Chosen, do you hear it?
01:24:44Yes
01:24:45I hear it
01:24:51I hear the music of the piper
01:24:59I hear my child's voice
01:25:05Oh no dear
01:25:06You're just imagining it
01:25:07I'm not imagining it
01:25:08That's my child's voice
01:25:11Mother, mother
01:25:19Mother
01:25:20Mother
01:25:21Mother
01:25:22Mother
01:25:35No! No! No! No!
01:26:05No! No!
01:26:35No!
