Galileo - New Age Lyrics

2024 world premiere
Galileo the Musical - New Age Lyrics


UNIVERSITY CHANCELLOR:
It's a fact of life, sad and quite absurd
That the louder you shout
The better you're heard
He's the talk of the city
The star of the show
He's let the whole world know
He's starting a New Age
A New Age

SENIOR CARDINAL:
The "Magic Tube"
My friends, we're clear
Was not his own, not his idea
He smashes down our crystal spheres
And magically appears
The dawn of a New Age
A New Age

UNIVERSITY CHANCELLOR:
More importantly
Our students
Have been eating up his words
He plants the seeds
But surely they will die
His so-called "facts"
Turn upside down
Just everything we're taught
I only hope our students
Don't ask why...

SENIOR CARDINAL:
If our power of logic
Cannot work alone
He could not resist
Against the power of Rome
We burn the men
Who speak so free
Our Church will surely not agree
With his New Age
His New Age

UNIVERSITY CHANCELLOR:
Our jobs are threatened!
Their minds are poisoned!

SENIOR CARDINAL:
The Holy Office
Would be very interested
To hear of...

His New Age!



Review: Galileo the Musical Lyrics


Galileo the Musical Lyrics

In the Night
Forbidden
We Only Want to Know
Doin' the Maths
The Man with His Head in the Stars
Science Impossible
Push Back the Frontiers
Heaven Needs Me
Never Give Up
Pictures in My Head
The Magic Tube
New Age
Verdict Compromise
1633: The Trial
You Had It All
A Life in Flames
Cosimo's Surprise
