andré and firmin-
prima donna,
first lady of the stage!
your devotees
are on their knees
to implore you!

can you bow out
when they’re shouting
your name?
firmin-
think of how they all adore you.
andré and firmin-
prima donna,
enchant us once again
andré-
think of your muse…
firmin-
and of the queues
round the theatre!
andré and firmin-
can you deny us the triumph in store?
andre and firmin-
sing, prima donna,
once more!
|
|raoul-
|christine spoke of an angel…
|
|carlotta-
|prima donna,
your song shall live again!
|andré and firmin-
|think of your public!
|
|carlotta-
|you took a snub,
|but there’s a public
|who needs you!
|
|giry-
|she has heard the voice
|of the angel of music…
|
|andré and firmin-
|those who hear your voice
|liken you to an angel!
|carlotta-
|think of their cry
|of undying
|support!
|
|raoul-
|is this her angel of music…?
|
|andré-
|we get our opera…
|firmin-
|she gets her limelight!
|
|carlotta-
|follow where the limelight
|leads you!
|
|meg-
|is this ghost
|an angel or a madman…?
|
|raoul-
|angel or madmadman…?
|
|andré and firmin-
|leading ladies are a trial!
|
|carlotta-
|prima donna,
|your song shall never die!
|
|meg-
|voice of h-ll, or of heaven…?
|
|giry
|heaven help you,|those who doubt…
|
|carlotta
|you’ll sing again,
|and to unending
|ovation!
|
|raoul
|orders! warnings!
|lunatic demands!
|
|giry
|this miscasting
|will invite d-mnation…
|
|andré and firmin
|tears… oaths…
|lunatic demands
|are regular occurences!
|
|meg
|bliss or d-mnation?
|which has claimed her…?
|carlotta-
|think how you’ll shine
|in that final
|encore!
|sing, prima donna,
|once more!
|
|giry-
|oh fools,
|to have flouted his warnings!
|
|raoul-
|surely, for her sake…
|
|meg-
|surely he’ll strike back…
|
|andré and firmin-
|surely there’ll be further scenes –
|worse than this!
|
|giry-
|think, before
|these demands are rejected!
|
|raoul-
|…i must see these demands are rejected!
|
|meg-
|…if his threats
|and demands are rejected!
|
|andré and firmin-
|who’d believe a diva
|happy to relieve a
|chorus girl, who’s gone
|and slept with the patron?
|raoul and the soubrette,
|entwined in love’s duet!
|although he may demur,
|he must have been with her!
|
|meg and raoul
|christine must be protected!
|
|carlotta-
|o, fortunata!
|non ancor
|abbandonata!
|
|andré and firmin-
|you’d never get away
|with all this in a play,
|but if it’s loudly sung
|and in a foreign tongue,
|it’s just the sort of story
|audiences adore, in fact a perfect
|opera!
|
|raoul-
|his game is over!
|
|giry-
|this is a game
|you cannot hope to win!
|
|raoul-
|and in box five
|a new game will begin…
|
|giry-
|for, if his curse
|is on this opera…
|
|meg-
|but if his curse
|is on this opera…
|
|andré and firmin-
|prima donna,
|the world is at your feet!
|a nation waits,
|and how it hates,
|to be cheated!
|
|carlotta-
|the stress that falls upon a
|famous prima donna!
|terrible deseases,
|coughs and colds and sneezes!
|
|still, the dryest throat
|will reach the highest note,
|in search of perfect
|opera!
|
|meg and giry-
|…then i fear the outcome…
|
|raoul-
|christine plays the pageboy,
|carlotta plays the countess…
|
|giry-
|…should you dare to…
|
|meg-
|…when you once again…
all-
light up the stage
with that age-old rapport!
sing, prima donna,
once more!
phantom(spoken)-
so, it is war between us! if these demands are not met, a disaster
beyond your imagination….will occur!
all-
once more!
