Love Has Driven Me Sane lyrics
Love Has Driven Me Sane
Silvia
I love my father
I want to tell him
I love my mother
I want to tell her
I love my brother
I want to tell him
I love my sister
I want to tell her
I love my mirror
I want to tell me
I want to love me
I want to love me
You can’t love another
Without loving yourself
(silvia exits.
Three male ensemble and launce
Enter up center playing basketball)
Love has driven me sane (finale continued)
Ensemble (3 men)
My pace was frantic
My mood was tortured
Now love has driven me sane
Launce
My life resembled
The cherry orchard
All
Now love has driven me sane
Am i healthy’ Am i happy’ Yes!
Gone is all the angst and crappiness
The big shock is the shock of happines love, love
Love love love love love love love, love, love
(the men led by proteus enter with
Yo-yos, doing elaborate tricks with
Yo-yos, with frisbies. All the girls
Appear on the top level and blow soap
Bubbles into the audience. Paper hearts
Fly down on the stage. Valentine sails
On stage on a gold baroque scooter)
All
I was into all perversions
Now love has driven me straight
Homo necro just diversions
Now love has driven me straight
Trade my straight-jacket
For a wedding veil
Throw away my needle and spoon
Sado mas
And all that jazz
Labotamized
Right out of my brain
(everybody does healthy exercises)
Life’s a prison
And love’s the pardon
Love’s the gardener
And i’m the garden
Love’s the doctor
And i give in
I was sick but
Love has driven
Me sane
Love has driven me sane
(all do tai chi)
I love my father
I want to tell him
I love my mother
I want to tell her
I love my brother
I want to tell him
I love my sister
I want to tel her
You can’t love another
Without loving yourself
(speed does karate and all
Fall down)
I lived in terror
I lived in panic
Now love has driven me calm
At least depressive’s
A break from manic
Now love has given me balm
(thurio enters and leads company
In ballet)
Launce thurio
Panic put me in paralysis fifth
Terror kept me in analysis passe
Wonderland is not where alice is attitude
Tendu
Battu
Arabesque
All
Love love love love love love love love love love love love
(lucetta enters on a pogo stick)
Lucetta
Each delusion
Made me merrier
Reality is so damn flat
Penis envy
And hysteria
I was into all that
(julia and silvia come on from
Opposite sides of the stage and
Lead everybody in a dance. Everyone
Is juggling, doing handstands,
Cartwheels, baton-twirling, swinging
From the rafters)
All
Life is passion
And fear is treason
There’s no ration
To my reason
Love’s the mansion
That i live in
Love’s the chauffeur
Who has driven me sane
Love has driven me sane
Sane
Sane
Love has driven me sane
(the chorus is standing on its
Head)
You can’t love another
Without loving yourself
