Andrew Lloyd Webber — Mother Did You Watch?

MEG: Mother, did you watch? Everything is sold Mother, can't you tell the new routine It went so well? I was worried just a touch That it might have been too much Just a bit, well, rather, free But just listen to that crowd Why, they've never been so loud! Screaming only for me MADAME GIRY: Meg... MEG: And the master must have heard Every note and every word Mother, tell me, did he see? MADAME GIRY: Meg, stop it MEG: Even he will now concede I'm the only he'll need - Mother, what's wrong? MADAME GIRY: Meg, sweet fool You did all that you could Charming, bright And yet still not enough MEG: Wh-what do you mean? MADAME GIRY: How you danced They're all entranced Yes, all but the one Whose entrancement we sought MEG: He wasn't there? MADAME GIRY: Where, poor girl Do you think that he was? Yes, that's right In with her all along MEG: With Christine? MADAME GIRY: Claiming of their son they love Too smitten to spare you One moment of thought MEG: But you said - MADAME GIRY: All that you gave him It's all been a waste MEG: You were wrong! MADAME GIRY: All that you've done It has all been a waste MEG: Don't say that! MADAME GIRY: Now he has them As for us we have Both been replaced MEG: No!
