Notes

Notes is a song from Phantom of the Opera.

Lyrics

Mystery after gala night It says mystery of soprano's flight Mystified all the papers say We are mystified, we suspect foul play

Bad news on soprano's scene First Carlotta now Christine Still, at least, the seats get sold Gossip's worth its weight in gold

Diva tenders resignation Cover does a moonlight flit Half your cast disappears but the crowd still cheers Opera! To hell with Gluck and Handel Have a scandal and you're sure to have a hit! "Dear André, what a charming gala! Christine enjoyed a great success We were hardly bereft when Carlotta left Otherwise, the chorus was entrancing But the dancing was a lamentable mess"
