1776
from the 1969 musical. alter as needed.
good god, what in the hell are they waiting for!
for god's sake, [name], sit down!
someone ought to open up a window.
can't we compromise here?
consider yourselves fortunate you have [sender name] to abuse, for no sane man would tolerate it!
will someone shut that man up?
i do believe you've laid a curse on [location].
we piddle, twiddle, and resolve. not one damned thing do we solve.
nothing's ever solved in foul, fetid, foggy, filthy [location].
i have such a desire to knock heads together.
i know, my dearest, i know. but that's because you make everything so complicated.
get out of there and hurry home to me.
have you done as i asked?
by treating sodium nitrate with potassium chloride, of course!
don't smirk at me, you egotist.
don't you know there's a war on?
every day, my dearest friend.
i am, as i ever was, and ever shall be, yours.
i have more to do than stand here listening to you quote yourself.
nobody listens to you. you're obnoxious and disliked.
i don't know. i haven't given it much thought.
god leans a little on the side of the [sender last name]s.
come on, boys, join in with me!
that was the most revolting display i ever witnessed.
i don't need a doctor, dammit.
it's a medicinal fact that rum gets a man's heart started in the morning.
softly, [name]. your voice is hurting my foot.
that strutting popinjay was so damned sure of himself.
you would, you little weasel.
i'm coming. i'm coming! hold your damn horses.
you've got your way at least.
i'm sure everyone prefers that you remain asleep.
you have an annoying talent for making delightful words sound distasteful.
sit down, you little roach, or i'll knock you down.
for once in your life, take a chance.
you incendiary little man.
are you calling me a madman, you—you—you—you—fribble!
a man should die in his own bed.
i'm thinking, i'm thinking—but nothing's coming!
i don't know a preposition from a predicate.
i'm only [age], i still have my virility.
life is more than sexual combustibility.
you're driving me to homicide!
a whole week! the entire earth was created in a week!
cheer up, get out of a dumps. it'll come out right, i promise you.
i live like a nun in a cloister.
spare me your bawdy mind first thing in the morning!
this is positively indecent!
the history books will clean it up.
from men your age it is not only unseemly, it's unsightly.
we dance! one-two-three, one-two-three!
you are without any doubt a rogue, a rascal, a villain, a thief, a scoundrel, and a mean, dirty, stinking, sniveling, sneaking, pimping, pocket-picking, thrice double-damned, no good son-of-a-bitch.
i'll take a dozen right now!
enough socializing. there's work to be done.
please, not while i'm eating.
you came into this world screaming "no," and you're determined to leave it the same way, you little worm!
leave me alone, you're wasting your time.
the man would depress a hyena.
and when they hang you, i hope you will put in a good word for the rest of us.
it's sounds lively as hell up there.
my eyes are wide open, my face to the sky.
it's a masterpiece! i'm to be congratulated.
i can't say i'm very fond of the united states of america.
we're going to have to offend somebody!
you'll have an attack of apoplexy if you're not careful.
courage, [name]. it won't last much longer.
what a bastardly bunch we are!
it's a luxury we can't afford.
don't wave your credentials at me!
how dare you jeopardize our cause when we've come so far?
stop acting like a fishwife!
at a stage in life when other men prosper i'm reduced to living in [location].
you don't usually ask my advice.
i'm afraid you are pig-headed.
has it been any kind of a life for you? god knows i haven't given you much.
i beg you to consider what you're doing.
we're men—no more, no less.
you're the one who wrote it!
i'm different from you. i'm different from most here.
i don't want to be remembered. i just don't want the responsibility.
i happen to be a harvard graduate.
don't miss your chance to commit treason!
