Prologue Lyrics
(An accordion plays as Andrey finishes putting on his uniform. He gives a last goodbye to Natasha and then leaves.)

PIERRE
There's a war going on
Out there somewhere
And Andrey isn't here
There's a war going on
Out there somewhere
And Andrey isn't here

ALL
There's a war going on
Out there somewhere
And Andrey isn't here
There's a war going on
Out there somewhere
And Andrey isn't here

And this is all in your program
You are at the opera
Gonna have to study up a little bit
If you wanna keep with the plot
Cuz it's a complicated Russian novel
Everyone's got nine different names
So look it up in your program
We'd appreciate it, thanks a lot
Da da da
Da da da
Da da da
