Prima Donna (Sngle Album Version)
ANDRE:Your public needs you!
FIRMIN:we need you, too!
CARLOTTA:Would you not rather have your precious little ingénue?
ANDRE/FIRMIN:Signora, no!
ANDRE/FIRMIN:The world wants you!
ANDRE/FIRMIN:Prima Donna, first lady of the stage!
ANDRE/FIRMIN:Your devotees are on their knees to implore you!
ANDRE:Can you bow out when they're shouting your name?
FIRMIN:Think of how they all adore you!
BOTH:Prima Donna, enchant us once again!
ANDRE:Think of your muse ...
FIRMIN:and of the queues round the theatre!
BOTH:Can you deny us the triumph in store?
Sing, prima Donna, once more!
Christine spoke of an angel----
CARLOTTA:Prima donna, your song shall live again!
ANDRE/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 ...
ANDRE/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?
ANDRE:We get our opera ...
FIRMIN:She gets her limelight!
CARLOTTA:Follow where the limelight leads you!
ANDRE/FIRMIN:Leading ladies are a trial!
CARLOTTA:Prima donna, your song shall never die!
You'll sing again and to unending ovation!
Orders! Warnings!
Lunatic demands
ANDRE/FIRMIN:lunatic demands are regular occurrences!
CARLOTTA:Think how you'll shine in that final encore!
Sing, prima donna, once more!
ANDRE/FIRMIN:Surely there'll be further scenes worse than this!（
RAOUL:I must see these demands are rejected!
ANDRE/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!
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!
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...
But if his curse is on this opera--
ANDRE/FIRMIN:Prima donna, the world is at your feet!
A nation waits, and how it hates to be cheated!
Light up the stage
With that age-old rapport
Sing, prima donna, once more!
