CAPA/TRACKLIST
Letra : Finale Act 1 (Quartet)
Once again I must be gone
Moving on to Eldorado
Shall my hopes be answered there?
Is that land so good and fair?
Though that Eden well may be
Though it shine however brightly
Still no bright yonder can delight me
Cunegonde won't be there to share it with me
Though it may seem
I am discarding Candide
Truly my scheme
Is for safeguarding Candide
Though I abhor
This loveless connection
I’ll feign affection
For your protection, Candide
Why should I wed?
Marriage is awful, you know
Pa**ion is dead
Once it is lawful, you know
No, I'll not wed
That would bе the worst thing
After the first fling
Womеn are awful, you know
Haven't I got brains?
I’m devilishly witty!
We were just in chains
And now we're sitting pretty!
Farewell my love, farewell!
Farewell Cunegonde
Farewell, farewell!
Farewell, my love
Ah, farewell, my love
No, for pa**ion is dead
When it's lawful, you know
No, no, no, marriage is awful, you know
If you've got brains
And you're clever and witty
You can make out
And wind up sitting pretty!
Ah!
Ah!
Ah!
Ah!
Ah!
Ah!
Well, they all believe what they're screaming. We'll see.
Though that Eden may well be
Though it shine however brightly
What bright yonder can delight me
Though it may seem
I am discarding Candide
Truly my scheme
Is for safeguarding Candide
Though I abhor this loveless connection
Why should I wed?
Marriage is awful, you know
Pa**ion is dead
Once it is lawful, you know
Women are awful after the first fling
Haven't I got brains
I’m devilishly witty
We were just in chains
And now we’re sitting pretty
Sitting pretty
Farewell to my love
Farewell to my love
Farewell to my love
Farewell to my love
Farewell to my love
Farewell to my love
You've got to have brains
You’ve got to have brains
You've got to have brains to live
No, no, I'll not wed
No, no, I'll not wed
No, no, I’ll not wed, no
Moving on to Eldorado
