Context & Lyrics


Burrs refuses Kate's advances, and professes dark feelings for Queenie.
View Lyrics
BURRS What is it about her That makes me want her? What is it about her That turns me pale? Something in her smile Something that I'll never understand Her wild abandon.

BURRS & QUEENIE What is it about her I know it's wrong That parts the waters? I know he's rough What is it about her That hoists the sail? I don't know what to do But we've been through enough

BURRS Something in her hair Instructing where to touch Why do I need her so much?

This woman makes me cry This woman makes me burn This woman's eye can cut me to the core

The hatred that I see Has been reserved for me Yet I want more And more And more

BURRS & QUEENIE And what is it about her Oooh... That pulls me closer? That way he's always there What is it about her That tips the scale? His strange and silent stare.

BURRS This girl is all I have So soft so fair, so fine And she's forever mine.

This woman builds me up This woman tears me down This woman speaks and I can break apart

Now comes another man Pretending he can win her heart Well, let him start.

What is it about her So slight, so secret? Something in the way she catches light

BURRS & QUEENIE Who's wrong? Who's right? I've never known. Should I hold my own Now - Or be alone We fall Tonight? We fight.

What is it about her What is it about him? That jumbles feelings inside? So coarse, so queer What is it about her What is it about him... That mixes passion with pride? That holds me here?

BURRS Could I live without her And let her go? How loud must I scream No!

Randall reveals to Campbell his past as an outcast, and wants her to embrace her life journey.
View Lyrics
RANDALL I'm a stud now, its clear. So it'll shock you to hear That I was a total dork My freshman year --

CAMPBELL You?

RANDALL Right? I was a loser, a mess, A loner, depressed That every day I had to be me Walked around hoping no one Would see me

I'd lock myself in the guys room And let the tears fall, Til one day this custodian Knocked on my stall And asked if I'd heard Of the band: The Grateful Dead -- And I thought he might not be Quite right in the head...

But he changed my life around When he said "Right now everything seems so important. But time rushes by at a clip And when you look back, These high school years Will be nothing more than a blip So you might as well -- enjoy the trip."

CAMPBELL But its such a long blip!

RANDALL Thats what i said! and he said:

"Trust me on this, when you're older And wiser and balder and fatter And you look back on this Moment in time The only things thats gonna Matter is Did you only do what you Thought you should do? Did you dance monkey dance Cause the man told you to? Or did you spend your time doing What brings joy to you?

"All you see is this old dude With a broom in his hand. But I've followed my dreams And my favorite band."

So don't sit on your ass Waiting for life to begin If you do what you love With your time, then you win! What a long, strange, Wonderful trip it's been!

Right now everything seems So important But time rushes by at a clip And when you look back, These high school years Will be nothing more than a blip Just a tale to tell!

RANDALL & CAMPBELL That rings a bell So what the hell! We might as well enjoy the trip!

Will Bloom, excited about the future of his future child, wishes to strengthen the relationship with his father.
View Lyrics
Stranger I'm feeling stranger Than I've ever felt before And so much more
Different Like something old has joined With something new But still feels true

I'm passing through a rite That every parent does I'm walking on some shared familiar ground Yet every step I take Is not a step that was And I found I like the sound of

Stranger A child I've yet to meet Becomes my everything My song to sing Father And suddenly the weight of it is real What do I feel?

I feel connected In a way I've never known A line from dad to me to new-born son So from today I'll never make a choice alone One for all All for one

And when he's born I'll teach him how to use his common sense He'll listen and he'll learn and he'll excel I'll tell my son That life is lived in clear and present tense Not only in the stories we can tell

My father told me stories I could never comprehend In every tale he'd claim to be the hero I've tried to understand him But I wonder if I can

Because after almost thirty years I still don't know the man I wish I knew the man

But he's a stranger My father is a stranger I know very well A puzzling shell Hopeful What's on its way help us both to grow But I don't know

I don't know when I'll understand What made him wild I don't know why he has the urge to fly I want to face him Like a man and not a child So I'll try I'll really try

And in time, my boy is sure to see Brighter days for dad and me We can do things better than before So that strangers we will be no more

Context & Lyrics


After hearing Ariel's voice from her rescuing him, Eric sets out to find her.
View Lyrics
Where did she go? Where can she be? When will she come again Calling to me? Calling to me... Calling to me...

Somewhere there's a girl Who's like the shimmer of the wind upon the water somewhere there's a girl Who's like the glimmer of the sunlight on the sea Somewhere there's a girl Who's like a swell of endless music Somewhere she is singing And her song is meant for me

And her voice It's sweet as angels sighing And her voice It's warm as summer sky And that sound It haunts my dreams And spins me 'round Until it seems I'm flying... Her voice!

I can sense her laughter In the ripple of the waves against the shoreline I can see her smiling In the moonlight as it settles on the sand I can feel her waiting Just beyond the pale horizon Singing out a melody too lovely to withstand

And her voice It's there as dusk is falling And her voice It's there as dawn steals by Pure and bright, it's always near All day, all night And still I hear it calling... Her voice

Strange as a dream... Real as the sea... If you can hear me now Come set me free... Come set me free!

Lookout Fleet finds it difficult to watch for icebergs.
View Lyrics
FLEET No moon No wind Nothing to spy things by
No wave No swell No line where sea meets sky
Stillness Darkness Can't see a thing, says I
No reflection Not a shadow Not a glint of light Meets the eye...
And we go sailing Sailing Ever westward on the sea We go sailing Sailing Ever on Go we...
IDA STRAUS It's a beautiful night, Mr. Straus Even though there's no moon Look at all the stars Can you find the big dipper?
ISIDOR STRAUS (spoken) The big dipper? I can't even find our own stateroom. Every time I go out for a walk, finding my way back is an adventure.
IDA STRAUS Maybe you drop some bread crumbs
ISIDOR STRAUS Can you feel how cold it's getting, Mrs. Straus? All in the past couple of hours Would you like me to get your fur stole?
IDA STRAUS What, and maybe never see you again? No thank you, I'd rather freeze
JIM FARRELL Are you cold, then, Katie?
KATE MCGOWAN Not now that you've got your arm around me...
JIM FARRELL But I don't- Oh, you're a funny one, Kate Mcgowan.
KATE MCGOWAN Funny? Thanks very much.
JIM FARRELL Becasue you come right out with what you want.
KATE MCGOWAN And you find that funny, do you? What kind of girl do you think I am? You think I need to be told what I want? Life's too short for that, me boy-o
CAPT. SMITH The weather's quite changed, Mr. Lightoller
LIGHTOLLER Yes, Sir, it's turned very cold Only one point above freezing
MURDOCH Ocean temperature's down to thirty-one degrees, Captain
CAPT. SMITH Warn the carpenter to check our supply of fresh water, Mr. Murdoch -and tell the engine room to watch the steam winches.
MURDOCH Aye, aye, sir
CAPT. SMITH There's not much wind, is there?
LIGHTOLLE No, Sir. It appears to be a flat calm.
FLEET SMITH,LIGHTOLLER,MURDOCH ...And we go sailing
See how calm it is Sailing Smooth as polished glass Ah, the open sea Ever westward on the sea Feel the bite in the air ...We go sailing Sailing Ah, the open sea Smooth as polished glass Ever on Go we...
CAROLINE NEVILLE Charles, think! In two days, America! What's the first thing your going to do when we get there, darling? After Marrying me, of course-
CHARLES CLARKE Apply to the sports desk of an important New York newspaper. I'm sure that they can use a journalist with my experience.
CAROLINE NEVILLE Oh, darling, you're sure to be a success!
CHARLES CLARKE Let us both hope so...
BOTH That's why we're going there...
MRS. CARDOZA Good evening, gentlemen.
THE MAJOR Madam, this happens to be the Smoke Room!
MRS. CARDOZA So I see.
J.J. ASTOR Women are never permitted in the 1st class Smoke Room, madam.
MRS. CARDOZA Don't look so shocked, gentlemen. There's a new world out there.
THE MAJOR There's a new world out where?
MRS. CARDOZA Mr. Hartley, that's a new melody- what's it called?
HARTLEY "Autumn," m'am.

Barrett proposes to his girlfriend and recalls their earlier times together.
View Lyrics
BARRETT I'll be coming back to you, Darlene Back to your dark eyes and hair Marry me when I return, Darlene And until that day, my love, take care Be thee well
May the lord who watches all
Watch over thee May God's heaven be you blanket
As you softly sleep Marry me
When you're fin'ly in my arms you'll plainly see This devoted sailor's heart and soul Are yours to keep!
BRIDE Yours-to-keep... Every day from G-M-O-M "Good morning, old man" To G-N-O-M "Good night, old man" My telegraph sends its messages to ships at sea
Sending out its Dit dit-dah-dit dah-dit... Dit dit-dah-dit dah-dit Dit dit-dah-dit dah-dit...
I was young and shy, detached and sad Spent my days indoors, a home-bound lad Hardly spoke, few friends I kept myself to myself Quite alone
Then I found Marconi's Telegraph It could span the planet's width by half Fifty yards, two thousand miles The same! Touch the spark...sound the tone
And the night was alive With a thousand voices Fighting to be heard And each and every one of them Connected to me...
And my life came alive With a thousand voices Tapping out each word Like a thousand people Joined with a single heartbeat
Tapping out our Dit dit-dah-dit dah-dit Dit dit-dah-dit dah-dit Dit dit-dah-dit dah Everywhere...
BARRETT & BRIDE Marry me
So alive with a thousand voices
May the lord who watches all Watch over thee
And every one of them connected to me
Marry me
So alive with a thousand voices May God's heaven be your blanket As you sleep  those people Joined with a single heartbeat
Tapping out our
Dit dit-dah-dit dah-dit Marry me... Dit dit-dah-dit dah-dit Marry me... Dit dit-dah-dit da

View Lyrics
I don't want to stand On the stage with a sword. I went to a pantomime once. I was bored.
I'm not a poetical sort of a person like you. When I need a poem, The streets and the gutters will do.

There's Tommy Flanagan Who lights the gas lamps- A hundred ninety lamps In Phoenix park alone. He's done it drunk For over fifty-seven years In Dublin!

And down on Henry street is Mad John Maher- Old ramblin' Johnny with a face like hammered meat! But Johnny's singin' brings a Dublin man to tears.

I don't know The words to tell you how it feels Or how to put it in a rhyme, But if you come with me you'll know

How the lamps in the park Look like god in the dark As they glow On the streets of Dublin

The dealers hawkin' and the dockers yellin' The buskers bangin' and the ragmen ringin' bells, And there's Maureen whose door is always open for All Dublin!

And Tony Kiely with his racing pigeons. It's like religon how he lives to fly those birds- He swears they travel for a hundred miles or more.

I don't know The kind of words that you might say But I can put it my own way, And if you come with me you'll know That those birds on the wing Are a beautiful thing As they blow Through the streets of Dublin

And there's music like nothin' you've heard If you know the right jukebox to play! There are glasses to raise in the praise Of survivin' the day...

Down where Miss Kitty Farrelly is pourin' whiskey And Frankie Donahughe is lighting her cigar. A smokey den where workin' men don't bring the wife...

It's the laughter of fellas with stories to tell, Men who love to get drunk and raise true fuckin' hell! Ah, you come out with me and you'll see what you're missin' in life

On the Streets of Dublin On the Streets of Dublin On the Streets of Dublin On the Streets of Dublin

Flick tells Violet to choose her own path and walk it one step at a time.
View Lyrics
Raise your foot now that’s the way You’ll be movin’ on today Raise the other put it down Now you’re headed into town Oh boy you got left, right Oh boy, ain’t that right

Got some years ahead to go You’ll go free if you take it slow Oh boy you got left, right oh boy, ain’t that right

Two kinds of people in this world Some say yes and some say no Time to say which side you’re on Eeeny meeny miney moe

Say yes and your adventure start Not always as expected Say no you stay apart But you stay protected

You’ve got to give your self A reason to rejoice Cause the music you make Counts for everything Now every living soul has got a voice You’ve got to give it room And let it sing

My family never had too much Made the best of every day Ate what’s on our plates you know Never threw a thing away We kept our nightmares on the shelf Our dreams were on the table Pass ‘em down and help your self As long as you are able

My momma told me Son forget what might have been Give yourself a break whatever’s happening Don’t let your spirit, son, come closing in You gotta give it room and let it, let it sing You gotta give it room and let it sing Oh you gotta lift up your voice and sing

Got some years ahead to go You’ll go free if you take it slow Got some years it won’t be long You’ll be free to sing your song

Oh boy you got left, right Oh boy

There's precious little really folks like us controlled But you can make your music from the simplest thing And though no one has got to tend your soul You’ve got to give it room and let it Let it sing You’ve got to give it room and let it sing

You’ve got to let it sing You got to let it sing You got to give it room And let it sing

I'd rather be sailing,
Yes, I would. On an open sea I'd stand at the railing
If I could Feeling wild and free
The sun is on my neck,
The wind is in my face The water's incredibly blue And I'd rather be sailing Yes, I'd wanna go sail And then come home to you
Sex is good
But I'd rather be sailing Food is nice
But I'd rather be sailing People are swell
But I'd rather be sailing Over the horizon
And I'd rather be sailing,
Yes, I would On an open sea I'd stand there
Inhaling if I could Feeling wild and free
The sun is on my neck,
The wind is in my face The sea is incredibly blue And I'd rather be sailing Yes, I'd wanna go sail And then come home to you
I'd rather be sailing Yes, I'd wanna go sail And then come home to you

Danny, a university junior, proposes to his pregnant girlfriend Lizzie.
View Lyrics
As I leave my single life behind Thoughts are kind of spinning in my mind
First I think about you Then I think about me loving you Then I think about you and me
Deciding we could be one
It's crazy I know,
I wrestled with my pillow all last night And I look at you
And I know I chose right
Life's a very long road And the crossroads come up
Right away And it's so hard to know which way to go
When you've barely begun
And Oh, the road you leave behind
Can shine so bright And I look at you
And I know I chose right
Now maybe we don't mean that much
You and I And maybe our balloon will never fly And maybe no one cares if we let things go by And maybe doesn't matter if we live or die
But if I'm making promises to you today I wanna know I'll keep them all the way So if I've not been good at meaning what I say It's time now to try
So I think about you
And I think about me loving you Then I think of my friends who'll say they're in love
When they're just havin' fun
But I say no no no
If I am gonna love its with all my might And I will be true,
I will follow this through
And I look at you And I know I chose right

John Jasper introduces himself and his inner disturbed feelings.
View Lyrics
Another trifling day,
One more soul-stifling day
Of blinding pain: Boredom grinds my brain
Down to the grain.
A man could go quite mad
And not be all that bad. Consider each superb,
Disturbing urge you've ever had To curse aloud in church
Or choke each bloke who Throws a smile your way... Be that as it may.
A man could have bad dreams
And not be all he seems. Yet not be far-removed
From all the noblest of extremes. Sometimes I think that sanity
Is just a passing fad. A man could go quite mad.
Unblessed are the dull.
One ceaseless, peaceless lull. Some wondrous night, Storm-struck thund'rous light Will cast me right
A sculptor lacking arms,
A sorc'ror lacking charms, A fiend who frightens no one
For there's no one that he harms. Whose clutches clutch
At only desp'rate respite From this dim tableau!
Knowing this is so,
I hide myself in thought Where one cannot be caught And feed on dreams that contradicts each Edict I've been taught And if someday I lose my way and mind, You'll find me glad - A man could go quite,
Man could go quite, Man could go quite mad!

In my gray flannel suit, In my new, shiny car, In my split level house, With my big, black cigar, Can't you picture me?

I will follow you, I will follow you To what may be a strange and alone world. For I know I'd be lost in my own world, If you're not part of it too.

I will follow you, I am ready to go Wherever you happen to lead me, Just in case you might happen to need me, All that you have to do is turn around, For I'll be following you.

I am ready to go Wherever you happen to lead me, Just in case you might happen to need me, All that you have to do is turn around, For I'll be following you.

The sailor Marius declares his love for Fanny.
View Lyrics
Only you, long as I may live,
Fanny, Fanny, Fanny. You, long as I may live, Fanny, If I could love,
That's what I would say.
But my heart isn't mine to give. Fanny, Fanny, Fanny. No, no not mine to give. Fanny. For it is gone, given long away
To the sea, my one love
In her gray green clothes, Deep with wonders beyond the shore; To the isles 'neath the winds
Where the spice wood grows. I must know them all,
Or sleep no more!
Here's a boy with no heart to give, Fanny, Fanny, Fanny. Not worth one tear you'll cry, Fanny. Oh, Fanny, goodbye!

Is it the wind, over my shoulder? Is it the wind that I hear gently whispering? Are you alone, there in the valley? No not alone for you walk, you walk with me

Is it the wind there, over my shoulder? Is it your voice calling quietly? Over the hilltop, down in the valley Never alone for you walk with me

When evening falls and the air gets colder When shadows cover the road I am following Will I be alone there in the darkness? No, not alone, not alone and I'll never be

Never alone you are walking You're walking with me

Is it the wind there, over my shoulder? Is it your voice calling quietly? Over the hilltop, down in the valley Never alone for you walk with me Over the hilltop, down in the valley Never alone for you walk with me

Never alone for you walk with me

I am dejected, I am depressed, Yet resurrected And sailing the crest. Why this elation, Mixed with deflation? What explanation? I am in love!
Such conflicting questions ride Around in my brain, Should I order cyanide Or order champagne? Oh, what is this sudden jolt? I feel like a frighten'd colt Just hit by a thunderbolt, I am in love!
I knew the odds Were against me before, I had no flair For flaming desire, But since the gods Gave me you to adore, I may lose But I refuse to fight the-fire!
So come and enlighten my days And never depart. You only can brighten the blaze That burs in my heart,
For I am wildly in love with you, And so in need of A stampede of Love!

Antipholus of Syracuse sings as the Sergeant drags him off to jail.
View Lyrics
Come with me Where the food is free Where the landlord never comes near you Be a guest in a house of rest Where the best of fellows can cheer you.
There's your own little room So cool, not too much light Where you're one man for whom No wife who waits up at night
When day ends You have lots of friends Who will guard you well while you slumber Safe from battle and strife Safe from the wind and gale Come with me to jail

You'll never have to fetch the milk Or walk the dog at early dawn There's no -"Get up- you're late for work!" While you rest in the pearly dawn You're never bored by politics You're privileged to miss a row Of tragedies by Sophocles And diatribes by Cicero

Your brother's wife will never come On Sunday noon to bring to you Her little son who plays the lute, Her little girl to sing to you

You can commit you little "sins" And relatives won't yell "Fie!" You needn't take the annual trip To the oracle at Delphi You snore and swear and stretch and yawn In this, your strictly male house

The only way that sinners go to Heaven Is in the jail house!

You are never away
From your home in my heart; There is never a day
When you don't play a part
In a word that I say,
Or a sight that I see. You are never away And I'll never be free.

You're the smile on my face, Or a song that I sing; You're a rainbow I chase On a morning in Spring; You're a star in the lace Of a wild willow tree, In the green leafy lace Of a wild willow tree.

But tonight you're no star, Nor a song that I sing. In my arms where you are, You are sweeter than Spring;

In my arms where you are Clinging closely to me, You are lovelier by far, Than I dreamed you could be. You are lovelier, my darling Than I dreamed You could be!

A civilian is doubtful of the existence of God.
View Lyrics
Shining in the eyes of every child, And in the flame of dawn reflecting on the open sea. In every fury and every love, You are awaiting me.

But what about the child who cannot breathe, Or the gentle sage who won't see the age of thirty-two? I am awaiting, I am awaiting you.

Light it all and burn it to the ground! Go ahead and let your thunder sound! Let me watch my loves and my teachers slowly fade away. I'll just have to wait another day.

Maybe in God we trust just a lucky charm, Maybe faith is only hoping that we can rise anew. And so I rise and so I stand. I am awaiting you, oh, I will still be standing here awaiting you.

Light it all and burn it to the ground! Go ahead and let your thunder sound! Let me watch my loves and my teachers slowly fade away. I'll just have to wait another day.

And so I rise and so I stand. I am awaiting, I am awaiting you. Awaiting you, oh, I will still be standing here awaiting you.

As a poor child, Valentin learned that if freedom would not come tomorrow, it would come eventually.
View Lyrics
VALENTIN It was made out of mud And pieces of tin And boxes nailed together Cardboard boxes My castle My home
And we slept on the floor My sister and I With gunny sacks for our pillows Coughing, hungry, cosy My home
And every Sunday on our knees We would thank the Lord For his bountiful blessings
And our mother poured soup Into little cracked bowls As she spoke of something better Beef steak, maybe, someday My home
And that lady had eyes That were empty and cold At the ripe old age of thirty Death came Welcome To my home
And still that Sunday On our knees How we thanked the Lord For his bountiful blessings
And my sister and I Swore the day that we left There'd be no more children like us In the filth there, in the heat there. In the smell there
And no more Sundays On our knees Would we thank the Lord For his bountiful blessings
And we came to the city And begged for our food Then, one April day we heard it Thunder rumbling One man speaking Thousands singing...
Someday we'll be free I promise you, we'll be free If not tomorrow Then the day after that
And the candles in our hands Will illuminate this land If not tomorrow Then the day after that
And the world that gives us pain That fills our lives with fear On the day after that Will disappear
And the war we've fought to win I promise you, we will win If not tomorrow Then the day after that Or the day after that

CHORUS & VALENTIN Someday we'll be free I promise you, we'll be free If not tomorrow Then the day after that

And the candles in our hands Will illuminate this land If not tomorrow Then the day after that
And the world that gives us pain That fills our lives with fear On the day after that Will disappear Will disappear
Will disappear
And the war we've fought to win I promise you, we will win If not tomorrow Then the day after that Or the day after that Or the day after that Or the day after that Or the day after that Or the day After that!

Henry Jekyll's menacing alter ego, Edward Hyde, starts to manifest.
View Lyrics
HYDE What is this feeling Of power and drive I've never known? I feel alive!

Where does this feeling Of power derive, Making me know Why I'm alive?

Like the night, it's a secret, Sinister dark and unknown. I do not know what I seek, Yet I'll seek it alone!

I have a thirst That I cannot deprive. Never have I felt so alive!

There is no battle I couldn't survive - Feeling like this - Feeling alive!

Like the moon, an enigma, Lost and alone in the night Damned by some heavenly stigma, But blazing with light!

It's the feeling of being alive! Filled with evil, but truly alive! It's the truth that cannot be denied! It's the feeling of being Edward Hyde!

I'll Be There For To Me There's No Sorrow Worse To Bear Than A Life Lived Apart.
I'll Be There Come The Mists On The Morrow I'll Be There By Your Side And Deep Within Your Heart
Now she's his wife And nobody knows How much of her she'll have to hide.
But Whatever Life He Might Propose Will Be Merely Pretending To The Dream Never-Ending We'll Now Hold Inside
I'll Be There Though I Know That It's Madness, Heart Laid Bare, Stripped Of Pride, Yet Still Proud.
I'll Be There In The Depths Of My Sadness I'll Be There Ever Steeled Unyielding And Unbowed.
Go And Marry A Man You Don't Love If That Pleases You. Throw Away, For A Cause, All The Joys We Have Known
I Thought Love's More Than Faith, More Than Clans, More Than Anything Let His Kiss Keep You Warm I'll Be Fine On My Own...
Is It Me I'm Deceiving? Mad Or Not, I'll Stay True. I'll Be There... I'll Be There, Heaven Speed Me, By Your Side, As You Need Me I'll Be There For You.

Lamar explains the Parable of the Sower.
View Lyrics
We plow the fields and scatter the good seed on the land.. But it is fed and watered by God's almighty hand.. He sends us snow in winter, the warmth to swell the grain... The breezes and the sunshine, and soft refreshing rain...

All good gifts around us Are sent from Heaven above So thank the Lord, oh thank the Lord for all his love...

We thank thee then, O Father, for all things bright and good, The seedtime and the harvest, our life, our health, our food, No gifts have we to offer for all thy love imparts But that which thou desirest, our humble thankful hearts!

All good gifts around us Are sent from Heaven above.. So thank the Lord, oh thank the Lord for all his love..

I really wanna thank you Lord!

The Baron and the ballerina Grushinskaya fall in love with each other, yet are slightly in denial about it.
View Lyrics
BARON VON GAIGERN Mademoiselle, I have followed you everywhere, Almost throughout your career. London, Vienna, Paree, I've admired you, Hoping one day we might meet in this way. But I never thought I'd be carried away, Oh, I knew you'd be beautiful, but not so beautiful...
Why am I talking this way?
Can this be real to me?
Nonesense my boy,
You knew she'd be beautiful
But not so beautiful

Love can't happen quite so quickly, Not unless I dreamed you, beautif'ly and sweetly... No, don't look through me so clearly. I might very nearly lose myself completely. Who could ever have suspected you would make me tremble so? I can't think of any answer other than, if love comes... When love comes, you know.

What is this I'm saying? What is this I'm feeling? Like I'm getting drunk, looking in her eyes... Overwhelming face, utterly appealing. Never mind the truth, never mind the lies. Never mind a thought in the world except...

Love can't happen quite so quickly, I might very nearly lose myself completely. Who could ever have suspected I would be here trembling so? I can't think of any answer other than, if love comes, When love comes, you know. And I know!

SOLDIERS Oh, Oh Fortune Favors the Brave Oh, Oh Fortune Favors the Brave
RADAMES We have swept to glory, Egypt's mastery expands From the Nile's northern most delta To the dry, dry southern sands
The more we find, the more we see, The more we come to learn The more that we explore, The more we shall return
SOLDIERS Oh, oh Fortune favors the brave
RADAMES It's all worked out, my road is clear The lines of latitude extend Way beyond my wildest dreams Toward some great triumphant end
We seize the day We turned the tide We touched the stars We mocked the grave We moved into uncharted lands
RADAMES &SOLDIERS Fortune favors the brave
RADAMES The more we find, the more we see The more we come to learn The more that we explore The more we shall return
Nothing is an accident We are free to have it all We are what we want to be It's in ourselves to rise or fall
This is easy to believe When distant places call to me It's harder from the palace yard Fortune favors the free
SOLDIERS Oh, oh
RADAMES Fortune favors the young!
SOLDIERS Oh, oh
RADAMES Fortune favors the brave!

Frederic, an ex-pirate who has just returned to the normal world, begs for a group of maidens to take pity on him.
View Lyrics
FREDERIC Oh is there not one maiden breast, Which does not feel the moral beauty. Of making worldly interest, Subordinate to sense of duty.
Who would not give up willing
All matrimonial ambitions? To rescue such a one as I
From his unfortunate position? From his position. To rescue such a one as I
From his unfortunate position!

DAUGHTERS Alas, there's not one maiden breast, Which seems to feel the moral beauty. Of making worldly interest, Subordinate to sense of duty.

FREDERIC Oh is there not one maiden here Whose homely face and bad complexion, Have caused all hope to disappear Of ever winning mans affection

To such a one if such there be I swear by heavens arch above you if you will cast your eyes on me However plain you'll be I'll love you, However plain you'll be.

If you will cast your eyes on me However plain you'll be I'll love you, I'll love you. I'll love, I'll lo-o-ove you.

DAUGHTERS Alas there's not one maiden here Whose homely face and bad complexion has caused all hope to disappear Of ever winning mans affection

FREDERIC Not one?

DAUGHTERS No, no not one.

FREDERIC Not one?

DAUGHTERS No, no.

MABEL Yes, one!

DAUGHTERS 'Tis Mabel!

MABEL 'Tis Ma-a-a-bel!

A fictional version of Jonathan Larson has conflicted feelings about turning 30 years old.
View Lyrics
JONATHAN Stop the clock Take time out Time to regroup Before you lose the bout
Freeze the frame Back it up Time to refocus Before they wrap it up
Years are getting shorter Lines on your face are getting longer Feel like you're treading water But the riptide's getting stronger
Don't panic, don't jump ship Can't find it, like taxes At least it happens Only once in your life
They're singing, "Happy Birthday" You just wanna lay down and cry Not just another birthday, it's 30/90 Why can't you stay 29? Hell, you still feel like you're 22 Turn 30, 1990 Bang! You're dead, what can you do? What can you do? What can you do?
MICHAEL Clear the runway Make another pass Try one more approach Before you're out of gas
JONATHAN Friends are getting fatter Hairs on you head are getting thinner Feel like a clean up batter On a team that ain't a winner
MICHAEL Don't freak out, don't strike out Can't fight it, like City Hall
JONATHAN
At least you're not alone Your friends are there, too
BOTH They're singing, "Happy Birthday" You just wish you could run away Who cares about a birthday? But 30/90, hey
Can't you be optimistic? You're no longer the ingenue Turn 30, 1990 Voom! You're passe What can you do? What can you do? What can you do?
JONATHAN
Peter Pan and Tinkerbell
Which way to Never Never Land? Emerald City's gone to hell Since the Wizard blew off his command
On the streets you hear the voices Lost children, crocodiles But you're not into Making choices, wicked witches, Poppy fields or men behind the curtains, Tiger lilies,
Ruby slippers Clock is ticking, that's for certain
They're singing, "Happy Birthday" I just wish it all were a dream It feels much more like Doomsday f**k, 30/90
Seems like I'm in for a twister I don't see a rainbow, do you? Turn 30 in the 90's
Into my hands now The ball is passed I want the spoils, but not too fast The world is calling It's now or Neverland Why can't I stay a child forever and - 30/90 30/90 30/90 30/90 30/90 30-30/90 What can I do? What can I do?

Juno laments that she cannot find love in Olympus or Earth.
View Lyrics
The breeze is chasing the zepher The moon is chasing the sea The bull is chasing the heifer But nobody's chasing me.

The cock is chasing the chicken The pea wakes up, pee-wee-wee The cat is taking a lickin' But nobody's taking me.

Nobody wants to own me And I object Nobody wants to phone me Even collect.

The leopard's chasing the leopard The chimp, some chap chimpanzee The sheep is chasing the shepherd But nobody's chasing me. Nobody! Nobody's chasing me.

The flood is chasing the levy The wolf is out on a spree The Ford is chasing the Chevvy But nobody's chasing me.

The bee is chasing petunias The queen is chasing the bee The worm is chasing the lettuce But nobody's chasing me.

Each night I get the mirror From off the shelf Each night I'm getting queerer, Chasing myself.

Ravel is chasing Debussy The avid chases the pee The gander's chasing the goosey But nobody's goosing me. Nobody! Nobody's chasing me.

The la is chasing the lama Papa is chasing Mama Monseur is chasing Madame But nobody's chasing moi.

The dove, each moment, is bolder The lark speaks muy petite Triston is chasing Isolde But nobody's chasing me.

Although I may be Juno, Believe it or not, I got a lot of you-know And you-know-what.

The snake, with passion, is shaking The pooch is chasing the flea The moose his love call is making But nobody's making me. Nobody! Nobody's chasing me!

Rosemary, a young secretary, dreams of a future living with Finch, a window cleaner.
View Lyrics
New Rochelle, New Rochelle, That's the place where the mansion will be For me and the darling bright young man I've picked out for marrying me.
He'll do well, I can tell. So it isn't a moment too soon To plan on my life in New Rochelle, The wife of my darling tycoon.
I'll be so happy to keep his dinner warm While he goes onward and upward; Happy to keep his dinner warm Till he comes wearily home from down town.
I'll be there waiting until his mind is clear While he looks through me, right through me; Waiting to say, "Good evening, dear. I'm pregnant. What's new with you from down town?"
Oh, to be loved by a man I respect; To bask in the glow of his perfectly understandable neglect. Oh, to belong in the aura of his frown--darling busy frown. Such heaven--
Wearing the wifely uniform While he goes onward and upward. Happy to keep his dinner warm Till he comes wearily home from down town.

If he really knew me If he really truly knew me Maybe he would see the other side of me I seldom see

If there were no music If the melodies stopped playing Would he be the kind of man I’d want to see tonight

Does the man make the music Or does the music make this man And is he everything I thought he’d be

If he really knew me If he’d take the time to understand Maybe he could find me The part I left behind me Maybe he’d remind me Of who I am

Hot Sunday night, I guess the folks were busy fighting Joe'd already left home, eleven years old on my own feeling nothing but lonely
There's nothing to do, there's nothing out there but the traffic Down on state ninety-three So I'd sit through the night by our old black and white TV That's where I saw it That's when I heard it Calling, Calling me
Disneyland, Magic Kingdom Disneyland, I close my eyes real tight Wishing hard I might, wishing hard I may Find my way to Disneyland, Gotta get to Disneyland, on a western breeze Magic carpet please, carry me away

I know you're gonna say the trees are paper mache It's done with mirrors, the magic there Each little birds full of springs, you press a button it sings Recorded music in the air They've had the mountain refaced it's only plywood and paste Go on say it! I'll turn around and tell you I don't care I don't... care

I will live in Disneyland Make my home in Disneyland Maybe it's all fake, That's a chance I'll take It's perfectly ok Someone give me Disneyland Take me there! To Disneyland And when I get to Disneyland I'll stay

Leona, a secretary, arrives in Venice and is amazed by what the city has to offer.
View Lyrics
LEONA Someone woke up one incredible day, Had an idea and was prompted to say: "Let's build a city... where should it be? How about the middle of that sea?" Someone drew plans like a set for a stage, Someone spilled colors all over the page, Then they built it -- Cookie, you know why? Just so Leona could come here and cry.

Some people cry at hellos and farewells, Some people cry at nostalgia with bells, Some cry at weddings, some at the moon, I cry promptly Mondays at high noon. Some people cry at Vienna or Rome, This one is mine, Cookie, this one is home. Look, they even painted the damn sky Just so Leona could come here and cry.

Let's build a city... where should it be? How about the middle of that sea?

Some people cry when they see their old pals, Me, I'm a sucker for chimes and canals. Look, they even painted the damn sky Just so Leona could come here And stand like a lump Dripping wet with no shoes on At noon on a Monday And cry.

Context & Lyrics


Burrs refuses Kate's advances, and professes dark feelings for Queenie.
View Lyrics
BURRS What is it about her That makes me want her? What is it about her That turns me pale? Something in her smile Something that I'll never understand Her wild abandon.

BURRS & QUEENIE What is it about her I know it's wrong That parts the waters? I know he's rough What is it about her That hoists the sail? I don't know what to do But we've been through enough

BURRS Something in her hair Instructing where to touch Why do I need her so much?

This woman makes me cry This woman makes me burn This woman's eye can cut me to the core

The hatred that I see Has been reserved for me Yet I want more And more And more

BURRS & QUEENIE And what is it about her Oooh... That pulls me closer? That way he's always there What is it about her That tips the scale? His strange and silent stare.

BURRS This girl is all I have So soft so fair, so fine And she's forever mine.

This woman builds me up This woman tears me down This woman speaks and I can break apart

Now comes another man Pretending he can win her heart Well, let him start.

What is it about her So slight, so secret? Something in the way she catches light

BURRS & QUEENIE Who's wrong? Who's right? I've never known. Should I hold my own Now - Or be alone We fall Tonight? We fight.

What is it about her What is it about him? That jumbles feelings inside? So coarse, so queer What is it about her What is it about him... That mixes passion with pride? That holds me here?

BURRS Could I live without her And let her go? How loud must I scream No!
