FIRMIN
Massacre, Andre!

ANDRE
Massacre, Firmin!

FIRMIN
Dear Andre shouldn't we be running?

ANDRE
No because we are dumb asses

FIRMIN
Quite a night, I'm in distress

ANDRE
Well, exercise is best

FIRMIN
They're after us!
They'll ruin all of the city, what a pity that The Phantom can't be here!

CHORUS
Massacre!
Paper people on parade...
Massacre!
Hide your face so the scissors will never find
you!

Massacre!
Every person a different shape...
Massacre!
Look around-
The scissors are right behind you!

Flash of red...
Splash of ink...
Boy and girl...
Toy and stink...
White and black...
Night and day...
Fuck off and
Go away!

Peoples ...
Take your turn, go to die
Fall to the ground...
In an inhuman race...
Eye of fear...
Die of luck...
True is false...
Who gives a fuck?
Slash of whip...
Clash of sound...
Damn you all
to the ground...

Peoples...
Drink it in, drink it up,
'Til you've drowned
In the fight,
In the sound...
But whose is that mace?

Massacre!
Grinning fellows
Spilling red...
Massacre!
Take your fill
Let the ink bath astound you!

Massacre!
Burning matches,
burning heads...
Massacre!
Stop and stare
At the sea of smiles around you!

Massacre!
Seething shadows,
Breathing lies...
Massacre!
You can fool any friend who ever knew
you!

Massacre!
Leering crazies,
threatening eyes...
Massacre!
Run and hide-
But a blade will still pursue you!

CARLOTTA
What a mess!

PIANGI
What a crowd!

FIRMIN
Makes you scared!
Makes you loud!
All the crème de la crème!

CARLOTTA
Watching us killing them!

MEG
And all our fears
are happening so fast!
ANDRE
Three months...

PIANGI
Of relief!

CARLOTTA
Of delight!

ANDRE
Of Elysian peace!

FIRMIN
I'm breathing too fast!

CARLOTTA
No more peace!

PIANGI
No more host!

GIRY
There's a death!

FIRMIN
There's a ghost
Not a prosperous year!

ANDRE
Are any friends who are here?

CARLOTTA & PIANGI
And may this nightmare fade away!

GIRY
We need joy!
We need a change!

FIRMIN & ANDRE
We need a blessed release!

GIRY
And this is a massacre!

CHRISTINE
Think of it!
A secret massacre! –pulls out scissors-
Look-your future bitch! Just think of it!

RAOUL
But why is it secret?
What have we to hide?
You promised me

CHRISTINE
No dickhead, please don't,
They'll see!

RAOUL
Well, then let them see.
It's a massacre, not a crime!
Christine, what are you afraid of?

CHRISTINE
Just don't get caught...

RAOUL
I won't get caught...

CHRISTINE
Please pretend...

RAOUL
I can only hope

BOTH
We will ...
...survive this time...

CHORUS
Massacre!
Paper people on parade...
Massacre!
Hide your face so the scissors will never find you!

Massacre!
Every person a different shape...
Massacre!
Look around-
The scissors are right behind you!

Massacre!
Burning matches, burning heads...
Massacre!
Stop and stare
At the sea of smiles around you!

Massacre!
Grinning fellows spilling red...
Massacre!
Take your fill-
Let the ink bath astound you!

PHANTOM –looks all hurt that paper people are already dead-
Why did you start without me, good messieurs?
Is it so bad to be fashionably late?
When did the fun start, good messieurs?
Why the hell couldn't you wait?
Here I come and now you're done-
What the fucking hell?
No "fondest greetings" to you all –sticks out tongue in a childish manner-
A few instructions for next time.
Carlotta must not eat her hat
It's not a normal trick like strutting 'round the stage
This fat dude must lose some weight
The sight of him puts me in a rage
And my managers must learn that their place is in hell
Not the arts
And as for… um… -points- her…
(thinks to himself) Now what's her name… meh.. I'll just go with…
(singing)Miss Christine Daae
No doubt she'll do her best
It's true her snore does irk, she knows
But should she wish to get friends
She has much still to learn
Just please don't mistake me for
Her teacher, her teacher.
-remembers what he was ranting about in the first place-
You are all a bunch of jerks, I'm so out of here!
