The Man Behind The Mask (Complete)

Coney island

"Hey, there she is
Miss Daae, Miss Daae
Christine, Miss Daae"

"Her name is Madame de Chagny, now stand aside, stand aside please! No pictures, do you hear? No pictures of my wife,
no pictures of the boy!"

"Hey Christine! Why Coney Island? Your first concert in years, why aren't you singing at the Met?"

"The Vicomtess has been engaged by a well-known person..."

"Well-known? No one's ever seen the guy! Hey, how do you lure the great Christine Daae over here anyways? It's the
money right? All that American moola? Hey Christine, what'cha gonna sing, Yankee-doodle moola?"

"My wife is an artist, sir!"

"Yeah, and her art is paying off your gambling debt, that's what they say in France! Is it true you left your entire
fortune on a roulette table in Montecarlo?"

"Insolent reject! How dare you!"

"Father?"

"Not now, Gustave."

"Hey kid! How's it feel to have a famous mother? This your first time in America? What do you plan to do here at Coney?"

"I-I want to learn how to swim."

"I said leave the child alone. God's sake! Didn't this Mr. Y send someone to receive us"

"Mother, look! Right over there, across the square. What is it?"

"Are you ready to begin?
Are you ready to get on?
You're about to start out on the journey of your life.
Dialogue.
If you're ready then get in
Once you're in then we'll get gone
And who knows once it goes,
where you'll be when it arrives.
It's a funhouse where the mirrors all reflect what's real.
And reality's as twisted as the mirrors reveal
And the fun is finding out what the mirrors show"

"This is unacceptable do you hear me! I will be taking this up with your employer, whoever he is."

"Everything and everyone, it's all just how I dreamed
All the freaks and all the fun, exactly how I dreamed
And Phantasma still awaits
Wonder what's behind its gates."

"What a dreadful town
What a vulgar place
What an awful mistake to have come here.
To be on display, in that shameless way
to the crew common lower class scum here.
How do the dare to treat us so?!"

"Father, dear, come play with me!
Come and see what toy I've got!"

"What a snub at most,
From our so called host.
Did he think sending freaks would be funny?
Could the fool have thought,
That our pride was bought by his filthy American money?
What a farce! What an outright slap in the face!
It's an utter disgrace!
I've got a mind to pack and go. Never you mind the debts we owe.
Who would've thought we'd sunk this low."

"Father, please, come play with me."

"Please tell the boy the answer's no!
Must you make that racket!
It hurts my head."

"Please let's not fight, dear.
I'm sure that no-one intended a slight, dear."

"Don't you patronise me, it's your fault we came here."

"We need the money.
That's all, that's why things haven't been right, dear."

"Why doesn't it surprise me that i get the blame here."

"Let's leave tonight, dear.
if that would serve to ease your troubled mind.
Leave the hurt behind."

"Father, dear, come over here
And look at what they gave to me.
Wind it up, and father see,
look it plays a melody."

"I need some air."

"Raoul, please..."

"Please what?"

"Nothing. Nothing.
Only. Raoul don't drink any more."

"Father never plays with me.
Doesn't he love me?"
