"We must if we ever expect to be human again." Piangi said walking into a very Dusty ballroom, "ah human again," Firmin said messing with the hands on Piangi's face. "Human again," Madem Giry said happily.
"Yes think of what that means," piangi clock parts made some noises. "I'll be cooking again, be good looking again, with a mademoiselle on each arm. When I'm human again, only human again. Posied and polished and gleaming with charm, I'll be courting again, Chic and sporting again."
Giry then joined in " which should cause serval husband alrams."
"I'll hop down form the shelf and toute suite myself, I can't wait to be human again. " "when where human again, when were knick knacks and whatnots nomore.
When were human again," Ah Cherie won't it all be top drawer. I were lipstick and rouge, and I won't be so huge, well I'll easily fit though that door. I'll exulde savior faire, I wear growns I'll have hair it's my prayer to be human again." "When were human again only human again, when the world once more starts making sense, I'll have wine for a change." "Really that well be strange," "can I help if I'm tense, I'll sit back by the sea, sipping tea. Let my early reatiment commence, far for fouls made of wax, I'll get down to the brass tracks to relax." "I can't wait to be human again, "
"so sweep the dust from the floor, lets get some light in the room, i can feel I can tell someone will break the spell any day now. Shine up the brass on the door, alert the dustpin and broom, If it all goes as planned our time may be at hand any day now. Open the shutters and let in some air," "put these here and those over there."
"Sweap up the pears of sadness and tears and throw them away. We'll be human again only human again, when the girl finally sets us all free, checks a-bloomin agian were assuming agian, well resume our long joie de vie. Well be playing again, holidaying agian
And were praying it's ASAP, little push. Little shove they'll come whosh fall in love and well finally be human again."
While the servants were cleaning up the ballroom, Christine and the phantom were reading by a fire place .
"Never was a story with more woe than that of Juliet and her Romeo," The phantom smiled at her as she closed the book
"could you read it again please?" The phantom asked her,
Christine then gave him the book "why don't you read it to me,"
"All right.... I can't,"
The phantom said staring at the book. "You never learned to read?" She asked "I learned a little it's just been so long." "Here I'll help you, let's starts here."
The phantom looked at the page and attempted to read it, "twoo?"
"Two," Christine said correcting him. "2 right I know that, two households."
"We'll be waltzing those old 1-2-3 again, well be floating again, well be gliding again! Stepping striding as fine as you please, like a real human does I'll be all that I was
On that  glorious morn, when we're finally reborn and we'll be human again."
