Two By Two by Original Broadway Cast of The Book of Mormon Lyrics
[ELDER SMITH, spoken]
Do you have any idea where they're sending you, Elder Price?
[ELDER PRICE, spoken]
Well, of course, we don't really have final say over where we get sent, but I have been praying to be sent to my favorite place in the whole world
[ELDER GREEN, spoken]
Well, if you prayed for a location, I'm sure Heavenly Father will make it happen. You're like the smartest, best, most deserving Elder the center's ever seen!
[ELDER PRICE, spoken]
Aw, c'mon, you guys...
(sung)
The most important time of a Mormon kid's life
Is his mission
A chance to go out and help heal the world
That's my mission
Soon I'll be off in a different place
Helping the whole human race
I know my mission will be something incredible!
[VOICE, spoken]
Elders, form a line and step forward when your name is called. Elder Young!
[ELDER YOUNG, spoken]
Yes, sir!
[VOICE, spoken]
Your mission brother will be... Elder Grant!
[ELDER GRANT, spoken]
That's—That's me! Hey, brother!
[VOICE, spoken]
And your mission location is... Norway!
[ELDER YOUNG, spoken]
Oh wow, Norway!
[ELDER GRANT, spoken]
Land of gnomes... and trolls!
[ALL]
Hoo wah!
Hey ya!
Shoo wah!
Zadup wow!
[ELDERS YOUNG & GRANT]
Two by two we're marching door to door!
'Cause God loves Mormons and he wants some more!
A two year mission is our sacrifice—
We are the army of the church of Jesus Christ!
[ALL]
—Of Latter-day Saints
Two by two, and today we'll know
Who we'll make the journey with and where we'll go
We're fighting for a cause but we're really, really nice
We are the army of the Church of Jesus Christ!
—Of Latter-day Saints
[VOICE, spoken]
Elder White and Elder Smith!
[ELDER SMITH, spoken]
I knew we'd get paired together!
[VOICE, spoken]
Your location will be... France!
[ELDER WHITE, spoken]
France! Land of pastries and turtlenecks!
[ELDERS SMITH & WHITE]
Two by two I guess it's you and me
We're off to preach across land and sea!
[ELDER WHITE, spoken]
Satan has a hold of France!
[ELDER SMITH]
We need to knock him off his perch!
[ELDERS SMITH & ELDER WHITE]
We are the soldiers of the army of the Church!
[ALL]
—Of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints!
[VOICE, spoken]
Elder Cross and Elder Green! You will be serving in... Japan!
[ELDER GREEN, spoken]
Ooh! Japan!?
[ELDER CROSS, spoken]
Land of soy sauce...
[ELDER GREEN, spoken]
And Mothra!
[VOICE, spoken]
Elder Harris and Elder Brown...
[ELDER PRICE]
Heavenly Father, where will I go on my mission?
[ELDERS]
On my mission
[ELDER PRICE]
Will it be China or ol' Mexico on my mission?
[ELDERS]
My mission...
[ELDER PRICE]
It could be San Fran by the bay
Australia where they say "G'day!"
But I pray I'm sent to my favorite place—
Orlando!
[ELDERS]
Orlando
[ELDER PRICE]
I love you
[ELDER PRICE & ELDERS]
Orlando!
[ELDER PRICE]
Sea World and Disney and
[ELDER PRICE and ELDERS]
Putt-putt golfing!
[VOICE, spoken]
Elder Price!
[ELDER PRICE, spoken]
Yes, sir!
[VOICE, spoken]
Your brother will be... Elder Cunningham!
[ELDER CUNNINGHAM, spoken]
That's me! That's me! Hello!
[ELDER PRICE, spoken]
Oh... hi...
[VOICE, spoken]
And your mission location is.... Uganda!
[ELDER PRICE, spoken]
...Uganda?
[ELDER CUNNINGHAM, spoken]
Uganda! Cool! Where is that?
[VOICE, spoken]
Africa!
[ELDER CUNNINGHAM, spoken]
Oh boy—like Lion King!
[ALL]
Two by two—
And now it's time to go
Our paths have been revealed
So let's start the show!
Our shirts are cleaned and pressed
And our haircuts are precise
We are the army of the church
We are the army of the church
We are the army of the church
Of Jesus—
Christ!
Two by two
We march for victory
Armed with the greatest book in history!
We'll convert everyone all across the planet Earth!
That is the beauty of—
The essence of—
The purpose of—
The mission of—
The soldiers of—
The army of the Church
Of Jesus Christ!
Of Latter-day Saints
