Lyrics

They say that this youth Has set my Lady's Heart aflame!

His Lordship, sure, Would die of shock!

His Lordship is A laughingstock!

Should he suspect her, God protect her!

Shame! Shame! Shame!

This faithless lady's Bound for Hades! Shame! Shame! Shame!

Serafimo - your disguise is perfect.

Who can this be?

Gentle wife, admit your loving Husband.

My love - I am called to England On affairs of State, and must Leave you with your new maid.

Though I'd happily take The maid with me.

The old fool's leaving!

Serafimo away with this pretense! You cannot speak - but kiss Me in my husbands absence.

Poor fool, he makes me laugh! Haha, Haha! etc. Time again I tried to get a better, better half!

Poor fool, he doesn't know! Hoho, Hoho, etc. If he knew the truth, he'd never, ever go!

Did I not instruct that Box Five was to be kept empty?

He's here: The Phantom of the Opera...

It's him!

Your part is silent, little toad!

A toad, madame? Perhaps it is you who are the toad...

Serafimo, away with this pretense! You cannot speak, but kiss me in my Croak!

Poor fool, he makes me laugh - Hahahahaha! Croak, croak, croak, croak, etc.

Mother!
