Woodlawn Cemetery Lyrics

[SWAN, spoken]
Everybody down

[COWGIRL, spoken]
Oh shit

[COCHISE, spoken]
You alright?

[COWGIRL, spoken]
Yeah

[FOX, spoken]
Ow!

[SWAN, spoken]
Everybody quiet
Look around, make sure we’re okay

[REMBRANDT, spoken]
This is a graveyard

[SWAN, spoken]
Everybody make it?
Cochise, Cowgirl, Fox, Swan
Ajax, Rembrandt—
[AJAX, spoken]
Not Cleon
She’s gone

[FOX, spoken]
Riffs got her

[COCHISE]
We gotta go back and find her

[COWGIRL]
With the cops on every corner?

[SWAN, spoken]
No

[SWAN]
Cleon’s the best of us
She shoulda made it out

[COCHISE]
She believed—

[SWAN]
She believed—
[COCHISE]
—In Cyrus

[REMBRANDT]
It is way too soon to mourn her—

[SWAN]
She should be by our side

[AJAX]
Pshh, knowing her she prob’ly triеd

[AJAX & SWAN]
To make things right

[FOX]
Can’t count how many times she savеd my hide

[REMBRANDT]
Is the truce still on?

[AJAX]
And it must be fifty miles to get back

[COWGIRL, spoken]
Shit!
[REMBRANDT]
What are we gon’ do?

[COCHISE]
Do we fight?

[REMBRANDT]
What are we gon’ do?

[COCHISE & COWGIRL]
Against the tide—

[REMBRANDT & FOX]
What are we gon’ do?

[COCHISE & AJAX]
Of the armies of the night?

[SWAN]
We get back home alive
When the night goes sideways, get back home alive
If the night divides us
Meet back up in Union Square
We’ll regroup and we’ll prepare
To get back home alive

[AJAX]
And who decided to make you war chief?

[COWGIRL, spoken]
Ajax…

[REMBRANDT, spoken]
C’mon, Ajax

[AJAX]
No, I wanna know!
Who gave you the right?

[COCHISE]
Swan is Cleon’s number two

[AJAX]
Well, good for Swan, but Cleon prob’ly died tonight

[COWGIRL & FOX]
Don’t say that!

[SWAN]
So make your move

[AJAX]
And I intend to survive tonight

[SWAN]
So make your move or fall in line

[COWGIRL, spoken]
C’mon, Ajax

[COCHISE, spoken]
We gotta stick together

[FOX, spoken]
We lost Cleon, we can’t lose you too

[AJAX, spoken]
Fine

[SWAN]
I’ll get us home

[SWAN & REMBRANDT]
Alive

[SWAN]
We can find a subway station
Gets us home

[SWAN & REMBRANDT & FOX]
Alive

[SWAN]
And we know our destination—
Rembrandt, just before we go
Make our mark and let ’em know
That we were here tonight

[SWAN & COCHISE]
And we’ll live to see tomorrow
If we just survive the night

[FOX & REMBRANDT]
What are we gon’ do?

[SWAN & COCHISE]
Get back home alive

[COWGIRL & FOX]
C’mon, c’mon, c’mon, c’mon

[They head out of the cemetery. REMBRANDT stays behind a moment to spray a W on a tombstone, then follows.]
