["The Patriot's Sweetheart" Style: High-Harmony, Triumphant Pop Anthem / Sentimental Ballad.] -Intro – [Grand, swelling string section with a slow, powerful drum beat. The music has a dramatic, cinematic feel.] [Mitzi's Soprano - clear, high vocal x 3] ( America! ) -Verse 1- [Beryl - Strong, confident lead vocal] The newspapers talk about battles far away, And I pray for my darling at the close of every day. I dust the furniture, I polish the floor, 'Cause a tidy home is the strongest front in war! I see the red menace in every shadow cast, But I know that our freedom is built to truly last. -Pre-Chorus – [Building anticipation and emotional power] [Trini & Mitzi - Harmony backing] (Ooh-ooh-ooh) I keep the faith burning, strong as a fusion core! I’ll stand by my man, and the flag he’s fighting for! -Chorus- [Full Trio Harmony - Lush, powerful, and soaring] I pack his lunch, I press his uniform, I keep the home fires true! I'm the Patriot's Sweetheart, waiting just for you! [Beryl's Lead] (Yes, I am!) My heart is a Vault, dear, sealed and strong inside, Keeping American morals safe, with nowhere left to hide! -Verse 2- [Trini - Clear, matter-of-fact tone, over marching snare drum] I hear the propaganda that the enemy sends, They want us to question all our patriotic friends. They say that obedience is a heavy, bitter price, But a disciplined life, dear, is sugar and spice! I raise our two children to love the great red, white, and blue, Teaching them that Vault-Tec has a future ready too! -Pre-Chorus – [Building anticipation and emotional power] [Trini & Mitzi - Harmony backing] (Ooh-ooh-ooh) I keep the faith burning, strong as a fusion core! I’ll stand by my man, and the flag he’s fighting for! -Chorus- [Full Trio Harmony - Lush, powerful, and soaring] I pack his lunch, I press his uniform, I keep the home fires true! I'm the Patriot's Sweetheart, waiting just for you! [Beryl's Lead] (Yes, I am!) My heart is a Vault, dear, sealed and strong inside, Keeping American morals safe, with nowhere left to hide! -Bridge- [Music becomes soft, slow, and deeply sentimental; a cinematic swell of strings.] [Beryl - Spoken/Whispered, deeply emotional] When the world feels shaky, and the news gives you fear... Remember that the home is the greatest battlefield, dear. And my greatest duty... is to make sure that nothing ever changes here. [Strings swell to a peak, then cut to the triumphant beat.] -Chorus- [Full Trio Harmony - Max power, sustained high notes] I pack his lunch, I press his uniform, I keep the home fires true! I'm the Patriot's Sweetheart, waiting just for you! [Beryl's Lead] (Yes, I am!) My heart is a Vault, dear, sealed and strong inside, Keeping American morals safe, with nowhere left to hide! -Outro – [ The three voices hold a long, high, ringing chord of pure loyalty. The strings fade slowly.] [Mitzi's Soprano x3} (Waiting for you!) [Chord dies slowly]
