Paroles de Overture Prologue: a Warning To The Audience

For those of you of weaker constitution For those of you who may be faint of heart This is a tale of revenge and retribution So if you’re smart Before we start You’d best depart You’d best depart An usher fainted in the aisle A nun from leicester lost her wits You might avoid the first or second row Blood may spill And spines may chill It’s ghastly – still We thought you ought to know It’s only just past eight It’s not too late For God’s sake! For God’s sake For God’s sake go!
