I’ve been trying to rehearse today, but I’m struggling with the lyrics of the song.  Today does not feel like the day to sing songs about the American Revolution.

One more star, one more stripe
Til this bloodshed’s finally through
One more star, one more stripe
Til they come back home to you
One more star, one more stripe
When there’s nothing you can do
If they take all the things
That define what you were, and are,
One more star

— “The Flagmaker, 1775”, Jason Robert Brown
