John and Abby go to the theater and discover the fickle ways of the people. ponderings123, this one's for you...stage mascara forever! XD

Here is what the actor sings, a part of "Hail Columbia:"

Behold the chief who now commands,
Once more to serve his country stands.
The rock on which the storm will break,
The rock on which the storm will break,
But armed in virtue, firm, and true,
His hopes are fixed on Heav'n and you.
When hope was sinking in dismay,
When glooms obscured Columbia's day,
His steady mind, from changes free,
Resolved on death or liberty.

Firm, united let us be,
Rallying round our liberty,
As a band of brothers joined,
Peace and safety we shall find.

This is a scene from the John Adams HBO Miniseries. HBO owns this entire video clip and not me.
