Before the Premiere

Before the Premiere is a song from Phantom of the Opera.

Lyrics

Idiot! You'll kill someone. I said: only when the time comes!

No "buts"! For once, Monsieur Le Vicomte is right. . .Seal my fate tonight - I hate to have to cut the fun short but the joke's wearing thin. . .Let the audience in. . .Let my opera begin!
