Love's Revenge (Reprise) lyrics
Love's Revenge (Reprise)
No appetite
Love took it away
Proteus, launce, speed
(in a 50’s back-up)
Doot doo doo, doot doo doo
Valentine
To show me how starved i was
Proteus, launce, speed
Doot doo doo
Valentine
Love’s revenge
Proteus, launce, speed
Love’s revenge
Valentine
Insomnia
Proteus, launce, speed
Doot doo doo
Valentine
Love gave it to me
Proteus, launce, speed
Doot doo doo
Valentine
To show me i didn’t dream
Proteus, launce, speed
Doot doo doo
Valentine
Love’s revenge
Proteus, launce, speed
Love’s revenge
Valentine proteus, launce, speed
The little i sleep ooh
Is just for a nightmare
The little i eat ooh
Is to taste the dregs
Where is my reason ooh
What is my name
What is this terrible shake ah ‘- doot doo-ah
In my legs
Valentine
My future plans
Proteus, launce, speed
Doot doo doo
Valentine
Love took them away
Proteus, launce, speed
Doot doo doo
Valentine
To show me i had no future
Proteus, launce, speed
Doot doo doo
Valentine
Love’s revenge
Proteus, launce, speed
Love’s revenge
Valentine
I have no future
Proteus, launce, speed
He has no future
Valentine
I have no past
Proteus, launce, speed
He has no past
Valentine
Without love
Proteus, launce, speed
Without love
Valentine proteus, launce, speed
Nothing can last ah
Without love nothing can last without love
That’s love ah ‘- that’s love
Valentine
It happened so suddenly, my lady silvia just
Blew my mind
And it’s love’s revenge
Speed
Do, do, do, do, do.
Valentine
My foolish rival, whom her father likes
Only for his possessions are so huge
Is gone with her along, and i must after
(valentine exits down right and
Re-appears with his bike. A
Golden, renaissance, baroque
Version of a schwinn)
For love, thou knowst, is full of jealousy
Proteus
But she loevs you’
Valentine
Ay
Speed
Master, you just met her.
Valentine
(as he exits on bike down left)
I must find me a long night ladder.
(proteus exits behind valentine)
Launce
Dup de do
Speed
What sayest thou that my master is become a notable lover’
Launce
I never knew him otherwise.
Speed
Than how’
Launce
A notable lubber, as thou reportest him to be.
Speed
Ay, thou whoreson ass, thou mistakest me.
Launce
Why fool, i meant not thee, i meant thy master.
Speed
I tell thee, my master has become a hot lover
Launce
Why, i tell thee, i care not though he burn himself in
Love. If thou wilt go with me to the alehouse.
Speed
How did thy master part with madame julia’
Launce
Marry, after they closed in earnest, they parted very
Fairly in jest.
Speed
Will they marry’
Launce
No.
Speed
How does the matter stand with them.
Launce
Marry thus, when it stands well with him, it stands well
With her.
(speed gets the joke)
Speed
To the ale house.
Launce
To the ale house.
(they exit.
Music.
Proteus enters up left and leaps
Down center)
