well, have you tried plain googling the lyrics in a cross reference to movies? NOT necessarily a show tune now is it but it may be there. Or else you can see if there is a live book on the internet then thumb thru the pages that way or go down to the local library and copy it by hand. My sister read it a few years ago in high school so I know it's out there, still in print.
Sorry, I never read it or saw the film so I can't offer any more suggestions and I cannot say if it's the same tune or not.

'Beasts of England, beasts of Ireland,
Beasts of every land and clime,
Hearken to my joyful tidings
Of the golden future time.
'Soon or late the day is coming,
Tyrant Man shall be o'erthrown,
And the fruitful fields of England
Shall be trod by beasts alone.
'Rings shall vanish from our noses,
And the harness from our back,
Bit and spur shall rust forever,
Cruel whips no more shall crack.
'Riches more than mind can picture,
Wheat and barley, oats and hay,
Clover, beans, and mangel-wurzels
Shall be ours upon that day.
'Bright will shine the fields of England,
Purer shall its waters be,
Sweeter yet shall blow its breezes
On the day that sets us free.
'For that day we all must labour,
Though we die before it break;
Cows and horses, geese and turkeys,
All must toil for freedom's sake.
'Beasts of England, beasts of Ireland,
Beasts of every land and clime,
Hearken well and spread my tidings
Of the golden future time.'
