Get In the Game

Get all this cleaned up
What's the point? The next dust storm will bury us again
I've started a petition for the camp administrators
You mean wardens?
I've got a list of requests to make life better here
Now, what do you want?
It's already cold at night
We need blankets, we need medicine
I've got a mattress full of fleas
Can your petition fix that?
They brought us here, forgot about us, then left us to rot
That's not gonna happen
Yeah, well, we're at war with Italy
But no one's putting Joe DiMaggio in a camp!
Hey, hey!
You got a complaint?
Put it here, and sign this
And remind the folks at charge that there are people here
We must appear united
If you want aspirin or bedding without fleas
Or not to freeze
Then get organized with me
As a team, we'll get it done
We're not nearly finished here
We have only just begun
So, sign this!
It's time we get in the game
We just gotta get in
Gotta get it, gotta get in
Go-gotta get in the game
We can't sit on the sidelines!
Look, I'm saying that we gotta get in
Gotta get in, gotta get in
Go-gotta get in the game
We're stuck who knows how long?
And sure it's wrong
Alone it's really hard
But as a team we're strong
There's no use placing blame
We just gotta get in the game
It's more than just the basics
We have to find a way to make life livable here!
No, enjoyable!
No, fun even!
Fun?
This is not summer camp
We have to find something we can all do together
Something that we all like!
Wait, Mrs. Tanaka, what is it you miss most about home?
Garden!
Back home I have so many flowers
And vegetable!
Judo!
That's against the rules
No oriental crop allowed, remember?
That's why we're petitioning
What else?
Dancing!
We can use the mess hall!
Yeah, jazz it up!
Whoo!
Sumo!
We need something we can all do
We need Buddhist temple
We need Frank Sinatra records!
Hey!
Hey, hey listen up!
What about baseball?
Oh!
Gotta get in, gotta get in
Gotta get
Gotta get in, gotta get in
Gotta get
Gotta get in the game!
It's a beautiful day for baseball here
Block 13 up at bat
(Gotta get in)
The base is fully loaded
And two outs is where we're at
(Gotta get in)
Gotta get in
Gotta get in the game
Strike one!
Gotta get in
Gotta get in the game
Strike two!
Toes at the plate
(Toes at the plate)
Hands up high
(Hands up high)
Eyes on the ball
(Eyes on the ball)
Knock it to the sky
(Knock it to the sky)
Now everyone get in
Home run!
That's how we win
So we gotta get in
Gotta get in, gotta get in
Gotta get in the game
We're saying that we gotta get in
Gotta get in, gotta get in
Gotta get in the game
We're stuck who knows how long?
And sure it's wrong
Alone it's really hard
But as a team we're strong
There's no use placing blame
It's time we overcame
And got back in the game!
Gotta get in the game!
