lirik lagu original broadway cast of lempicka - paris
[ensemble]
paris, city of light
city of refugees
arriving here overnight
the aristocracy
gone, the past, the plans
gone, the servants, the lands
gone with the setting sun
[?] in paris
and it’s time to move on
[tamara]
it’s the ugliest, beautiful city
i’ve ever seen
[tadeusz]
what did you do to get me out?
[tamara, spoken]
nothing, tadeusz, i gave them a few jewels
[tadeusz]
what did you do to get me out?
[tamara, spoken]
and that’s the last of it. i sold my last necklace for the rent
[tadeusz]
when my father
with his influence
could do nothing
[tamara, spoken]
can you look for a job today? there’s a polish bank on the rue vaneau. your name will mean something there
[tadeusz, spoken]
you want me counting people’s stinking bank notes?
[ensemble]
one small room for a family of three
hot water, a forgotten luxury
like eating when you’re hungry
[tamara, spoken]
perhaps i could get a job!
[tadeusz, spoken]
are you trying to insult me?
[tamara, spoken]
things are different here
[tadeusz, spoken]
what if someone sees you? how would that look?
[ensemble]

[ensemble]
ugliest, beautiful city
i’ve ever seen
ah
[tamara]
look at these women
showing their bodies
as though there was no need for shame
it’s a warmer climate here
i suppose, no need for so many clothes!
look at the pastries
shining like jewels
look at these colors
a thousand different blues
look at the women
rushing by in their high heeled shoes
[ensemble]
paris, city of light
[tadeusz, overlapping]
what did you do to get me out?
[tamara, spoken]

[ensemble]

[tamara, spoken]
i am hungry, i am awake, can’t break down. can’t break. start again in this dirty city. how can i make it mine? breeze off the dirty river. the smell of~ oils and turpentine
[tamara]
look at these hands
they once were pretty
the hands of a young girl
waiting to marry
[tamara, spoken]
look at them now. cracked and bleeding
[tamara]
a lady must never get her hands dirty
not a lady now
could i be one of these women
walking fast in the city
could losing everything
make you free
[man, spoken]
armistice declared. the great war is over. treaty signed, the troops are coming home
[tamara]
the century is different
so why shouldn’t i be
[man, spoken]
russia remains in bl~~dy civil war
[tamara]
everything is different
all new possibilities
[man, spoken]
but at last, there is peace in europe
[tamara]
my god, i’ve never been so hungry
it. feels. good
the city belongs to me
and i belong to her

this is where i was meant to be
this beautiful city
[ensemble, overlapping]
paris, city of light, city of refugees
paris, city of light, city of bakeries
[tamara]
ugliest beautiful city
[ensemble, overlapping]
paris, city of light, city of refugees
gone, the past, the plans
gone, the servants, the lands
[tamara]
and i will capture all that it could be
show the world what i see
[together]
