Roméo & Juliette: De la haine à l'amour (2002) - full transcript
Women are nothing but lessons to me
l took my first one at fifteen
with my father next to me
All their desires and pleasures
l have confidence
l am a lover par excellence
Blondes, brunettes l've had all but one
The one that counts
Cousins, we're cousins
What a good joke!
I saw her grow up
now I see her leave with him
How can she love the son of Montague
An abortive affair void of vice or virtue
lt's the day, lt's the day
it's the day, it's the day
Today l am going to make my point to you
My dear friend, l am going to kill you
l am going to kill you, no - hurt you
Like she hurt me
Juliet l will make him pay for your weakness
Women are nothing but prison cells
Since fifteen Juliet's heart is
where l dwelled
l was never brave
or bold enough to tell her
The secret love that l held for her
lt's the day, lt's the day
it's the day, it's the day
The day that men will choose to fight
The day the thunderclouds alight
l am going to kill you, not hurt you
Like she hurts me
Romeo l will make you pay for your frailty
My heart betrays me no less
lt's the day even if l fear darkness
lt's the day to die for a jealous spell
lt's the day to die for love as well
Don't talk to me about honor
lt's for love that men will die for
l will find you Romeo, l will kill you Romeo
Then you will know all about
Men who had their hearts ripped out
Well well well Tybalt walks amongst us
Oh Ah...
Mercutio! lf the dog is here
Then the master can't be far off
Oh Ah...
l am looking for Romeo
You're looking for Romeo?
He is looking for Romeo!
l have seen you pursue
a lot things, Tybalt!
Glory, fortune, confrontation
But Romeo, never! l don't understand!
Don't worry yourself to much Mercutio
He knows very well why
Tybalt, Tybalt l am going to kill you
Tybalt, Tybalt your smiling is through
Your nothing but a fake
No, it is sad to see
Your soul limps but you think
it can run free
The sound of your voice the way
you walk you see
everything, everything about you
makes me ill
Tybalt, Tybalt lt is you l'm going to kill
Mercutio, look at your lot
You have some wit
but that's all you've got
You are nothing but a fool, and a lousy poet
And when l hear your name
l block my nose
lt's over now!
Since our childhood
l have had but one thought
My patience is rewarded
with what it has sought
Mercutio, l am going to kill you
Stop! Have you lost your mind
stop this from happening
ln your bloodlust it is our way
of life you are killing
Stop!
Live, We all want to live
Without this hate, without this death
Live, and discuss, with respect
then maybe trust
Free, We are all free to not follow
free to refuse
For the love of those you hold dear
your mothers, your fair maids
Forget your hate and please
sheath your blades
Live, and let us drink to chance
Get drunk, but not on vengeance
Live, We all want to live
Without this hate, without this death
Live, and discuss, with respect
then maybe trust
Stop! Have you lost your mind
Stop this from happening. No!
Death waits its turn you wait yours
Don't make a mistake, the grave error
Live, to know each other better
Live and grow old together, oh,oh,oh...
He hates me so, and for so long, no? Romeo
Too much mercy you know
lt's like a cur with rabies
A coward, believing itself menacing
What is it? you think that
you are a king? No!
You're the same as us but even less l think
Here you are full of love
and you pissed on goodwill
You are like a vulture who waits on the kill
Live,life is an affray, life is not a play
Live!
Free!
Live!
Free!
Live!
Free!
Live!
Free!
Live, we all want to live
Without this hate, without this death
Live, discuss, with respect
then maybe trust
Live...
Free!
Live...
Mercutio...
No!
Romeo
Mercutio, You're hurt
No, What is left that
can still hurt Mercutio?
But life, Romeo, it's escaping
lt's leaving me
You're bleeding!
No, l'm leaving
You were always a little slow
l took the blow below your arm
Oh, Mercutio l'm so sorry...
No, Don't apologize
only children say they're sorry
And Juliet loves a man
Oh Mercutio
Don't cry, no, no, love Juliet, Romeo
Love her with all your soul
Love her with all your strength
She'll give you what
no woman has ever given to me
Love her Romeo, love her
Mercutio!
l die, into dust, but l die, in your arms
Romeo, oh my brother, who will now
protect you from harm?
l die so you can live
but you are not living
l pass onto another shore
l'll be there waiting
Continue your war
but continue without me
l die into dust, but l die like royalty
To hell with your families
to hell with your feud
Romeo, so gentle
your reasoning has left you
Romeo...Romeo
Mercutio, Mercutio
Don't leave me
l beg you, don't leave me
Mercutio...!
Who knew one day
No matter how much love you have
God, Life here on earth is nothing but hell
Oh oh...
Tybalt, Tybalt, Tybalt
God, Life on earth, is nothing but hell
Adieu, my friend, Adieu
Tybalt!
You my husband, where were you
when Juliet was growing up?
Where were you
when l was getting old?
Where were you when he died?
Are you a man or a shadow?
Will you seek vengeance for him
Or do l have to do that for you?
Act man!
Silence!
What is the price?
That we will pay for his life
What is the destiny?
For those who bring death to me
My son has been killed
But all you here know
That Tybalt was first to make the blood flow
The deed is done
To bring it to fruition
l must believe you
l must know too
Where is Romeo?
l swear you must believe me
l didn't want this to be
Vengeance is not my nature
Yes, l avenged him that is sure
Was l to do nothing at all?
When l see my brother fall?
You who hate so much
How can you judge us?
We are your children, us three
You alone are on a killing spree
We are nothing but mimes
That imitate your crimes
Oh!
What is the price?
That we will pay for a life
What is the price?
What is the destiny?
For those who bring death to me
Death
What is the price?
That we will pay for a life
What is the price?
What is the destiny?
For those who bring death to me
Ohhhohhhhh...
The deed is done
To bring it to fruition
l must believe you
l must know too
Oh,what is the price...?
Citizens of Verona!
Am l the King of Stupidity?
The Prince of fools reigning over idiots?
l can sentence you to death Romeo!
No!
l will only demand you to leave
You are now banished from this town
And you must leave this
instant for Mantoue
Farewell!
Enough, enough my prince, l plead with you
not exile for pity's sake, mercy...
To be prince, to be king
To have all the power but no rights
To be prince, in this lowly world
l in the lawless heights
They envy me, but why?
They say HE when they talk about me
They fear me, they believe me
For when they are hot l freeze
Whatever l would do
l'd sacrifice it all, it's true
To watch over all of you
Power, power, power
Whether we be rich whether we be poor
The spirit forever wants more
We all haven't received gods grace
To ensure we are in a happy place
We know not if the devil we will be
Like wind that blows on the sea
l don't know a softer pain
Or a larger pleasure
to gain power
when it is in your hands
ls better than all the gold in the land
When the world is a mirror in hand
Power, power
Power, we love the taste of
Much better than that of love
Much softer than velvet fuzz
Of the women who tend your grove
Power is excitement
And l climax in it's confidence
And when l inseminate it
History is what l contemplated
Power is fantastic
l am a man but made public
ln this world
where everything is bought
l am the only one everyone
lends to at no cost
ln this world where all is at stake
They give to me or l will take
Amongst dwarves l touch the sky
And l lie, l lie, l lie
Power! Oh, my mates
lf you knew the rate
For death with a smile you would wait
Eternity in one life is my fate
And when uphold justice
of virtue against vice
lt is the same as
when l give fatherly advice
l command it's obedience
Power deserves it
We take it or we inherit it
And that day that we quit it
We construct it's myth
Power burns within you
Power makes lose a screw
Power we clamp on to
And when it abandons you
Then you die
Power, power, power...
Oh...
POWER!
Romeo!
Mother, l am banished, l lose Juliet
And l lose my son
l love her!
l love you more than her
We both suffer
How can l live without her?
Living without you will kill me
Good bye mother
Good bye my son...
Mercutio
Tybalt! Oh...
Things never go the way
we want them to
Juliet now you know what l already knew
and you cry, you cry my daughter
my sister you see
l will burden your misery
God, how men are cold
Oh! men they are all so bold
Oh! God, how men are cold
What then are we supposed to say?
For us who agree with your ways
God you have put us on this plain
Why Would you have us quietly remain?
And watch men die
The prince, when banishing you
Did you know? He saved you
We reclaimed the royal blood of blue
The blood of a Montague
And my poor little lost one, look at you
You don't understand anymore, do you?
God, how men are cold
Oh! men they are all so bold
Oh! God, how men are cold
What then are we supposed to say?
For us who agree with your ways
God you have put us on this plain
Why would you have us quietly remain?
And watch men die
God, how men are cold
Oh! men they are all so bold
Oh! God, how men are cold
What then are we supposed to say?
For us who agree with your ways
God you have put us on this plain
Why Would you have us quietly remain?
And watch men die
God, how men are cold
Oh! men they are all so bold
Oh! God, how men are cold
What then are we supposed to say?
For us who agree with your ways
God you have put us on this plain
Why Would you have us quietly remain?
And watch men die
God...
Juliet, Juliet
l hear the song of the skylark
l will be strong, but be ready
Juliet l must embark
Romeo, Romeo
No, lt's just the nightingale
l fear madness will prevail
lf you leave, Romeo
l don't want
l cannot
Live without you
l love you, l love you
Until the end of the night
To sleep in your embrace
To die face to face
l love you, l love you
A whole life to love you
That human justice is never kind to us
Did it ever love for it
to be able to judge us
l love you, yet the next day
you will be so far away
l love you, l love you
until the end of the night
Sleep in your embrace, die face to face
Sleep in your embrace, die face to face
l love you
Romeo, my mother is coming
l don't want to leave you
Me neither, l am your wife...
Yes forever Juliet...Wait for me
l will return...
l will return
Romeo!
l will return!
Paris, it's decided
you will have my daughter
Paris, to you l abandon my rose
my lovely flower
l do it, for her sake
so she will not be so blue
From now on her satin heart
belongs to you
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow
l give you her hand
Juliet, You know the love
your father brings you
Juliet, tomorrow your
childhood is through
He is giving you to Paris
your childhood now are his
And God, your Blesses, gives you to Paris
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow
he will have your hand
Women, lack of choice is their plight
Men, they have all the rights
But why are you crying
don't you know?
That the hour of happiness is at hand
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow
he will have your hand
Nanny, my father want me to marry Paris
He will have your hand
Nanny, why do l have to listen to this?
You don't have a choice
l'd rather die
How would you dare?
l obliged to love him why?
This Paris with his good family
l am already married
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow
He will have your hand
Juliet how can you still love that one
When your cousin is dead and gone
l beg you, you must say yes
To this suitor, which we promise
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow
he will have your hand
Tomorrow, he will have your hand
Tomorrow, he will have your hand
l don't want to, let me be
For pity's sake stop it please
lt's your father you must do what he says
NO!
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow
he will have your hand
To have a daughter
A little opal
Two eyes that glitter
Skin so pale
To have a daughter
Who becomes a woman
Like a virtuoso
Without one lesson
To have a daughter
With a heart of sand
Gift of a god
Gift of a demon
To have a daughter
ls like doing a crime
And the victim does the time
To have a daughter
She is everything, she is my blood
She is the fruit of me
at twenty years old
l curse all her lovers, let it be told
She is everything, she is my blood
l curse all her lovers, let it be told
To have a daughter is
to tremble in fear
As she gets made up for one
who is a deceiver
To have a daughter is to never more
Treat women as l have done before
To have a daughter
l hate men and their leers
l know their rouses and their cheers
Then will come a day
when one will take her
And all the while will call me mister
And so this day and every other
l put my heart in a guarded tower
And l become deaf hearing no other
To have a daughter
Hope and belief still go on
Even when my life is gone
She carries deep inside of her
This scintillation from everyone
who had their turn
Having loved her cries
from a heart that burns
To have a daughter
A little opal
Two eyes that glitter
Skin so pale
To have a daughter
ls like doing a crime
And the victim does the time
To have a daughter
To have a daughter...
Shadows have no need for her
With her, all is a garden
The blue of the sky
ls merely makeup for her eyes
the curve of her neck
Needs no jewelry to be perfect
When l am in her
lt's like l am in a chapel
No one calls to me
l wouldn't answer anyway
When she holds me near
l forget you are there
For her
(Friar Laurent!)
l have left everything l care
(Help me!)
(They want to marry me off)
For her
Oh, l have even killed a man
(l would rather die)
l was in a cage
Like a bird who is too sage
Now, l am feeling rage
Cast out, turn the page
And tonight l cry
Love is not a crime
You must be blind
To see us as victims this time
Open your eyes, open your heart
When you love all sadness departs
As l shuffle through
the streets of Mantoue
l feel without her madness will ensue
With her
(All this is of no importance)
it never darkens
(We pardon your offenses)
With her
Oh...
All is a garden
(All of this is of no importance)
The blue of the sky
(When we are together)
ls merely makeup for her eyes
When l think of him l tremble
The curve of her neck
(ls loving really a crime to us?)
Needs no jewelry to perfect
Why are you preventing us?
When l am in her
(Oh...)
lt's like l am in a chapel
No one calls to me
l wouldn't answer anyway
When she holds me near
l forget you are there
Ouhhhhh...
Listen my Juliet
Listen to Friar Laurent
Take this vial
A few drops and you
will plunge into a sleep
They will think you're dead
Your body will be cold
And when you awake
Romeo will be there
l will send him a letter
He will get it
Have faith, my Juliet
Listen to me
Where do they go
Where do lovers' dreams go?
Their words, their passion
l'll return, l'll wait for you so
God will guide us
Now die l must
Romeo, why is it?
What we evoke?
ls our story
A comedy, a joke?
God will guide us
Now die l must
Romeo, this one game we must play
To not die
l must die a bit
This poison will save us
At dawn l'll return to us
Where do they go?
Where do lovers' dreams go?
Their words their passion
l'll return, l'll wait for you so
God will guide us
What? Juliet is dead?
No!
Go get Lady Capulet... hurry!
Juliet is dead...
Juliet, Juliet, my Juliet!!
Why did you do this?
NO!
l am of no importance
l was his friends since we were infants
l just liked women and l liked to dance
lt's over...
Just yesterday we were
so far, so far from death's door
But lt has descended on our town
like a spider spins its web
We were the kings of everything around
Yes, but now our injuries
are too profound
lf tomorrow the clocks would not turn
Still Juliet would not return
And it's me....
Who has to tell him
How will l tell him? How will l tell him?
That the worst has happened
How will l tell him?
That the woman he loves is dead
That all happiness has fled
That youth has reached it's end
All that's left is one friend
How will l tell him? This cruel chagrin
How will l tell him?
A family l have never known
l roamed the streets and called it home
And whenever l lose a friend
l then become an orphan
Mercutio sang that life is beautiful
l truly believed it too
Mercutio will never sing again
Here l am, lost and without kin
We were the kings of everything around
Yes, but now our injuries
are too profound
Even if tomorrow, thoughts are repenting
Juliet still would not be living
And it's me....
Who has to tell him
How will l tell him? How will l tell him?
That the worst has happened
How will l tell him?
The woman he loves has just died
And when she left she had inside
Half of his love he had for her
Now she takes it from him forever
How will l tell him? This cruel chagrin
How will l tell him?
How will l tell him? How will l tell him?
That the worst has happened
How will l tell him?
That the woman he loves is dead
That all happiness has fled
That youth has reached it's end
All that's left is one friend
How will l tell him? This cruel chagrin
How will l tell him?
How will i tell him...?
oh oh, oh oh...
oh oh, oh oh...
Benvolio, What are you doing there?
Wake up
You're sleeping you idiot!
You came from Verona
give me some news!
Tell me about Juliet
l can't stand it here
Romeo wait
Come, tell me!
Come on, tell me!
Tell me now!
Romeo!
Juliet is dead!
Romeooooo !
What have you done to her
that she had to go?
What have you done to her?
What was the row?
You have won in part
by keeping us apart
What have you said to her
that she had preferred?
To die so far away from me
That l wasn't even there
To hold her close to me
What have you done to her
that she has left me?
The weight of your regrets
transferred onto my agony
lt's over, l must go
l wanted to know about life
and now l know
l am so spent
Nothing l demand
Just to extend, and take her hand
And lay it on my heart
and let the pain depart
lt's over, l must go
l wanted to know about life
and now l know
Her kisses of honey
Her eyes soft as satin
l will take these feelings with me
And bring them to the heavens
Adieu my Juliet
Eternity awaits us
lt's over, l am leaving
l found how to forget about
peace seeking
l am so spent
l want to know nothing more
Only to extend
and enter through the mirror
And reclaim Juliet until time's end
She waits for me...
Romeo, you came
Thank you Lord
Romeo wake up, let's go!
Come, let us go
Romeo, look, l am alive
You know that Friar Laurent had warned you
Romeo, say something!
Romeo, answer me!
My love, answer me, answer...
ANSWER!!!!
Why stay around and grow old here?
ln a world where you no longer reside
Really what choices are there?
When the one you love commits suicide
Don't look at me to understand
Don't look for anything from me
Burning in love in ashes you stand
Yet keeps you out so you freeze
Me, l'll die for love
Me, l'll die for love
Romeo, Romeo
Life without you passes so quickly
Romeo, l love you so completely
For tonight the day into darkness slips
Without the taste of you on my lips
Romeo, Romeo
l am coming soon wait for me
Romeo, l love you so completely
For tomorrow the sun will come forth
Without the taste of you on my mouth
Maybe you had suffered much too
l have also received a lot for you
l leave you with your hostilities
But, l will depart far from thee
Me, l'll die for love
Me, l'll die for love
Romeo, Romeo
Life without you passes so quickly
Romeo, l love you so completely
For tonight the day into darkness slips
Without the taste of you on my lips
Romeo, Romeo
l am coming soon wait for me
Romeo, l love you so completely
For tomorrow the sun will come forth
Without the taste of you on my mouth
l no longer know, l no longer know
lf l believe in man
and my belief is low
That God is on my side
Oh,l no longer know
l am lost l confide
For you l abandoned everything
l have given you my soul to take
For you l renounced everything
women and the flesh that slakes
l believed in your kindness
but mine l have lost
l can no longer love
All these men just fuel my disgust
l envy the apostles, l envy those
who's belief is in place
l am a man like all the others
who gently drowns and
loses his faith
l no longer know, l no longer know
lsn't it you who said?
Men should love then you see
that they are dead
Oh, l no longer know, l feel dejected
For you l have forgiven, for you
l have done good
For you l have listened to
their secrets as mine would
A little more each day
Would grow and splay
l scream but you listen to what l say
My love for you has frayed
Oh God this is my prayer to you, the same
as my brothers would say
l am a man as are they
On my knees to you l pray
and l am dismayed
Nonetheless l commit to memory
before l commit blasphemy
To say that l love you
to whomever l run into
Life was simple
l had enough love to impart
But the ink of the gospels
has dried with my heart
Oh God of all men
You who are almighty
Listen to the voice of one man
who pleads from his knees
He is on the verge of insanity
l no longer know, l am lost
l no longer know, l no longer know
lsn't it you who said?
Men should love then you see
that they are dead
Oh, l no longer know, l am lost, oh...
l no longer know. No, l no longer know
lf l believe in man and my belief is low
That God is on my side
Oh, l no longer know
l am lost l confide, oh
l no longer know No!...
l no longer know
Our lives appear to be
Nothing but ships lost at sea
Why should our lives go on
When our children are dead and gone
And God and man can see
Exactly what we can be
l pray their souls of crystal
will pardon us for this evil
That our gods are in dismal
Let us make them
Make them rest peacefully
For their love will never be
We're the ones to judge
we're the ones to blame
They are in heaven we are
doomed to flames
This is where the sun sets on
Romeo and Juliet
We're the ones to judge
we're the ones to blame
They are in heaven we are
doomed to flames
This is where the sun sets on
Romeo and Juliet
Guilty, guilty
the whole world
Will judge us

Thank you all!
Ladies and Gentlemen
We're especially lucky tonight
to welcome not only the TV cameras but
also our producer and composer
Mr. Gerard Presgurvic
Are you excited?
Sing together!
The kings of the world always live on top
The vista is great
but they lack the thought
Of what the people below think of them
That we are the kings and them just men
The kings of the world
in their ivory towers
Sit by themselves in crowded
rooms and glower
Worrying from the first rays
of morning light
While we down below dance
away the night
We make love, we live life
Day after day night after night
What good does it do us to be on earth?
lf it is to live our lives on our knees
We know how fast time is fleeting
To live is the most important thing
Morales sometimes drive us mad
We know that we are really not bad
The kings of the world are afraid of all
They lay their traps fearing they will fall
They protect themselves
whether it be pet or beast
And finally even from love they retreat
The kings of the world
wage constant warfare
There is enough land but never to share
We don't want to fight their war
We don't even know
what we are fighting for
We make love, we live life
Day after day night after night
What good does it do us to be on earth?
lf it is to live our lives on our knees
We know how fast time is fleeting
To live is the most important thing
Morales sometimes drive us mad
We know that we are really not bad
What's up?
l can't hear you!
We make love, we live life
Day after day night after night
What good does it do us to be on earth?
lf it is to live our lives on our knees
What good does it do us to be on earth?
Morales sometimes drive us mad
We know that we are really not bad
Morales sometimes drive us mad
We know that we are really not bad
we are really not bad
We know how fast time is fleeting
Morales sometimes drive us mad
We know that we are really not bad
We make love, we live life
Day after day night after night
What good does it do us to be on earth?
lf it is to live our lives on our knees
We know how fast time is fleeting
What good does it do us to be on earth?
Morales sometimes drive us mad
We know that we are really not bad
l took my first one at fifteen
with my father next to me
All their desires and pleasures
l have confidence
l am a lover par excellence
Blondes, brunettes l've had all but one
The one that counts
Cousins, we're cousins
What a good joke!
I saw her grow up
now I see her leave with him
How can she love the son of Montague
An abortive affair void of vice or virtue
lt's the day, lt's the day
it's the day, it's the day
Today l am going to make my point to you
My dear friend, l am going to kill you
l am going to kill you, no - hurt you
Like she hurt me
Juliet l will make him pay for your weakness
Women are nothing but prison cells
Since fifteen Juliet's heart is
where l dwelled
l was never brave
or bold enough to tell her
The secret love that l held for her
lt's the day, lt's the day
it's the day, it's the day
The day that men will choose to fight
The day the thunderclouds alight
l am going to kill you, not hurt you
Like she hurts me
Romeo l will make you pay for your frailty
My heart betrays me no less
lt's the day even if l fear darkness
lt's the day to die for a jealous spell
lt's the day to die for love as well
Don't talk to me about honor
lt's for love that men will die for
l will find you Romeo, l will kill you Romeo
Then you will know all about
Men who had their hearts ripped out
Well well well Tybalt walks amongst us
Oh Ah...
Mercutio! lf the dog is here
Then the master can't be far off
Oh Ah...
l am looking for Romeo
You're looking for Romeo?
He is looking for Romeo!
l have seen you pursue
a lot things, Tybalt!
Glory, fortune, confrontation
But Romeo, never! l don't understand!
Don't worry yourself to much Mercutio
He knows very well why
Tybalt, Tybalt l am going to kill you
Tybalt, Tybalt your smiling is through
Your nothing but a fake
No, it is sad to see
Your soul limps but you think
it can run free
The sound of your voice the way
you walk you see
everything, everything about you
makes me ill
Tybalt, Tybalt lt is you l'm going to kill
Mercutio, look at your lot
You have some wit
but that's all you've got
You are nothing but a fool, and a lousy poet
And when l hear your name
l block my nose
lt's over now!
Since our childhood
l have had but one thought
My patience is rewarded
with what it has sought
Mercutio, l am going to kill you
Stop! Have you lost your mind
stop this from happening
ln your bloodlust it is our way
of life you are killing
Stop!
Live, We all want to live
Without this hate, without this death
Live, and discuss, with respect
then maybe trust
Free, We are all free to not follow
free to refuse
For the love of those you hold dear
your mothers, your fair maids
Forget your hate and please
sheath your blades
Live, and let us drink to chance
Get drunk, but not on vengeance
Live, We all want to live
Without this hate, without this death
Live, and discuss, with respect
then maybe trust
Stop! Have you lost your mind
Stop this from happening. No!
Death waits its turn you wait yours
Don't make a mistake, the grave error
Live, to know each other better
Live and grow old together, oh,oh,oh...
He hates me so, and for so long, no? Romeo
Too much mercy you know
lt's like a cur with rabies
A coward, believing itself menacing
What is it? you think that
you are a king? No!
You're the same as us but even less l think
Here you are full of love
and you pissed on goodwill
You are like a vulture who waits on the kill
Live,life is an affray, life is not a play
Live!
Free!
Live!
Free!
Live!
Free!
Live!
Free!
Live, we all want to live
Without this hate, without this death
Live, discuss, with respect
then maybe trust
Live...
Free!
Live...
Mercutio...
No!
Romeo
Mercutio, You're hurt
No, What is left that
can still hurt Mercutio?
But life, Romeo, it's escaping
lt's leaving me
You're bleeding!
No, l'm leaving
You were always a little slow
l took the blow below your arm
Oh, Mercutio l'm so sorry...
No, Don't apologize
only children say they're sorry
And Juliet loves a man
Oh Mercutio
Don't cry, no, no, love Juliet, Romeo
Love her with all your soul
Love her with all your strength
She'll give you what
no woman has ever given to me
Love her Romeo, love her
Mercutio!
l die, into dust, but l die, in your arms
Romeo, oh my brother, who will now
protect you from harm?
l die so you can live
but you are not living
l pass onto another shore
l'll be there waiting
Continue your war
but continue without me
l die into dust, but l die like royalty
To hell with your families
to hell with your feud
Romeo, so gentle
your reasoning has left you
Romeo...Romeo
Mercutio, Mercutio
Don't leave me
l beg you, don't leave me
Mercutio...!
Who knew one day
No matter how much love you have
God, Life here on earth is nothing but hell
Oh oh...
Tybalt, Tybalt, Tybalt
God, Life on earth, is nothing but hell
Adieu, my friend, Adieu
Tybalt!
You my husband, where were you
when Juliet was growing up?
Where were you
when l was getting old?
Where were you when he died?
Are you a man or a shadow?
Will you seek vengeance for him
Or do l have to do that for you?
Act man!
Silence!
What is the price?
That we will pay for his life
What is the destiny?
For those who bring death to me
My son has been killed
But all you here know
That Tybalt was first to make the blood flow
The deed is done
To bring it to fruition
l must believe you
l must know too
Where is Romeo?
l swear you must believe me
l didn't want this to be
Vengeance is not my nature
Yes, l avenged him that is sure
Was l to do nothing at all?
When l see my brother fall?
You who hate so much
How can you judge us?
We are your children, us three
You alone are on a killing spree
We are nothing but mimes
That imitate your crimes
Oh!
What is the price?
That we will pay for a life
What is the price?
What is the destiny?
For those who bring death to me
Death
What is the price?
That we will pay for a life
What is the price?
What is the destiny?
For those who bring death to me
Ohhhohhhhh...
The deed is done
To bring it to fruition
l must believe you
l must know too
Oh,what is the price...?
Citizens of Verona!
Am l the King of Stupidity?
The Prince of fools reigning over idiots?
l can sentence you to death Romeo!
No!
l will only demand you to leave
You are now banished from this town
And you must leave this
instant for Mantoue
Farewell!
Enough, enough my prince, l plead with you
not exile for pity's sake, mercy...
To be prince, to be king
To have all the power but no rights
To be prince, in this lowly world
l in the lawless heights
They envy me, but why?
They say HE when they talk about me
They fear me, they believe me
For when they are hot l freeze
Whatever l would do
l'd sacrifice it all, it's true
To watch over all of you
Power, power, power
Whether we be rich whether we be poor
The spirit forever wants more
We all haven't received gods grace
To ensure we are in a happy place
We know not if the devil we will be
Like wind that blows on the sea
l don't know a softer pain
Or a larger pleasure
to gain power
when it is in your hands
ls better than all the gold in the land
When the world is a mirror in hand
Power, power
Power, we love the taste of
Much better than that of love
Much softer than velvet fuzz
Of the women who tend your grove
Power is excitement
And l climax in it's confidence
And when l inseminate it
History is what l contemplated
Power is fantastic
l am a man but made public
ln this world
where everything is bought
l am the only one everyone
lends to at no cost
ln this world where all is at stake
They give to me or l will take
Amongst dwarves l touch the sky
And l lie, l lie, l lie
Power! Oh, my mates
lf you knew the rate
For death with a smile you would wait
Eternity in one life is my fate
And when uphold justice
of virtue against vice
lt is the same as
when l give fatherly advice
l command it's obedience
Power deserves it
We take it or we inherit it
And that day that we quit it
We construct it's myth
Power burns within you
Power makes lose a screw
Power we clamp on to
And when it abandons you
Then you die
Power, power, power...
Oh...
POWER!
Romeo!
Mother, l am banished, l lose Juliet
And l lose my son
l love her!
l love you more than her
We both suffer
How can l live without her?
Living without you will kill me
Good bye mother
Good bye my son...
Mercutio
Tybalt! Oh...
Things never go the way
we want them to
Juliet now you know what l already knew
and you cry, you cry my daughter
my sister you see
l will burden your misery
God, how men are cold
Oh! men they are all so bold
Oh! God, how men are cold
What then are we supposed to say?
For us who agree with your ways
God you have put us on this plain
Why Would you have us quietly remain?
And watch men die
The prince, when banishing you
Did you know? He saved you
We reclaimed the royal blood of blue
The blood of a Montague
And my poor little lost one, look at you
You don't understand anymore, do you?
God, how men are cold
Oh! men they are all so bold
Oh! God, how men are cold
What then are we supposed to say?
For us who agree with your ways
God you have put us on this plain
Why would you have us quietly remain?
And watch men die
God, how men are cold
Oh! men they are all so bold
Oh! God, how men are cold
What then are we supposed to say?
For us who agree with your ways
God you have put us on this plain
Why Would you have us quietly remain?
And watch men die
God, how men are cold
Oh! men they are all so bold
Oh! God, how men are cold
What then are we supposed to say?
For us who agree with your ways
God you have put us on this plain
Why Would you have us quietly remain?
And watch men die
God...
Juliet, Juliet
l hear the song of the skylark
l will be strong, but be ready
Juliet l must embark
Romeo, Romeo
No, lt's just the nightingale
l fear madness will prevail
lf you leave, Romeo
l don't want
l cannot
Live without you
l love you, l love you
Until the end of the night
To sleep in your embrace
To die face to face
l love you, l love you
A whole life to love you
That human justice is never kind to us
Did it ever love for it
to be able to judge us
l love you, yet the next day
you will be so far away
l love you, l love you
until the end of the night
Sleep in your embrace, die face to face
Sleep in your embrace, die face to face
l love you
Romeo, my mother is coming
l don't want to leave you
Me neither, l am your wife...
Yes forever Juliet...Wait for me
l will return...
l will return
Romeo!
l will return!
Paris, it's decided
you will have my daughter
Paris, to you l abandon my rose
my lovely flower
l do it, for her sake
so she will not be so blue
From now on her satin heart
belongs to you
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow
l give you her hand
Juliet, You know the love
your father brings you
Juliet, tomorrow your
childhood is through
He is giving you to Paris
your childhood now are his
And God, your Blesses, gives you to Paris
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow
he will have your hand
Women, lack of choice is their plight
Men, they have all the rights
But why are you crying
don't you know?
That the hour of happiness is at hand
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow
he will have your hand
Nanny, my father want me to marry Paris
He will have your hand
Nanny, why do l have to listen to this?
You don't have a choice
l'd rather die
How would you dare?
l obliged to love him why?
This Paris with his good family
l am already married
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow
He will have your hand
Juliet how can you still love that one
When your cousin is dead and gone
l beg you, you must say yes
To this suitor, which we promise
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow
he will have your hand
Tomorrow, he will have your hand
Tomorrow, he will have your hand
l don't want to, let me be
For pity's sake stop it please
lt's your father you must do what he says
NO!
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow
he will have your hand
To have a daughter
A little opal
Two eyes that glitter
Skin so pale
To have a daughter
Who becomes a woman
Like a virtuoso
Without one lesson
To have a daughter
With a heart of sand
Gift of a god
Gift of a demon
To have a daughter
ls like doing a crime
And the victim does the time
To have a daughter
She is everything, she is my blood
She is the fruit of me
at twenty years old
l curse all her lovers, let it be told
She is everything, she is my blood
l curse all her lovers, let it be told
To have a daughter is
to tremble in fear
As she gets made up for one
who is a deceiver
To have a daughter is to never more
Treat women as l have done before
To have a daughter
l hate men and their leers
l know their rouses and their cheers
Then will come a day
when one will take her
And all the while will call me mister
And so this day and every other
l put my heart in a guarded tower
And l become deaf hearing no other
To have a daughter
Hope and belief still go on
Even when my life is gone
She carries deep inside of her
This scintillation from everyone
who had their turn
Having loved her cries
from a heart that burns
To have a daughter
A little opal
Two eyes that glitter
Skin so pale
To have a daughter
ls like doing a crime
And the victim does the time
To have a daughter
To have a daughter...
Shadows have no need for her
With her, all is a garden
The blue of the sky
ls merely makeup for her eyes
the curve of her neck
Needs no jewelry to be perfect
When l am in her
lt's like l am in a chapel
No one calls to me
l wouldn't answer anyway
When she holds me near
l forget you are there
For her
(Friar Laurent!)
l have left everything l care
(Help me!)
(They want to marry me off)
For her
Oh, l have even killed a man
(l would rather die)
l was in a cage
Like a bird who is too sage
Now, l am feeling rage
Cast out, turn the page
And tonight l cry
Love is not a crime
You must be blind
To see us as victims this time
Open your eyes, open your heart
When you love all sadness departs
As l shuffle through
the streets of Mantoue
l feel without her madness will ensue
With her
(All this is of no importance)
it never darkens
(We pardon your offenses)
With her
Oh...
All is a garden
(All of this is of no importance)
The blue of the sky
(When we are together)
ls merely makeup for her eyes
When l think of him l tremble
The curve of her neck
(ls loving really a crime to us?)
Needs no jewelry to perfect
Why are you preventing us?
When l am in her
(Oh...)
lt's like l am in a chapel
No one calls to me
l wouldn't answer anyway
When she holds me near
l forget you are there
Ouhhhhh...
Listen my Juliet
Listen to Friar Laurent
Take this vial
A few drops and you
will plunge into a sleep
They will think you're dead
Your body will be cold
And when you awake
Romeo will be there
l will send him a letter
He will get it
Have faith, my Juliet
Listen to me
Where do they go
Where do lovers' dreams go?
Their words, their passion
l'll return, l'll wait for you so
God will guide us
Now die l must
Romeo, why is it?
What we evoke?
ls our story
A comedy, a joke?
God will guide us
Now die l must
Romeo, this one game we must play
To not die
l must die a bit
This poison will save us
At dawn l'll return to us
Where do they go?
Where do lovers' dreams go?
Their words their passion
l'll return, l'll wait for you so
God will guide us
What? Juliet is dead?
No!
Go get Lady Capulet... hurry!
Juliet is dead...
Juliet, Juliet, my Juliet!!
Why did you do this?
NO!
l am of no importance
l was his friends since we were infants
l just liked women and l liked to dance
lt's over...
Just yesterday we were
so far, so far from death's door
But lt has descended on our town
like a spider spins its web
We were the kings of everything around
Yes, but now our injuries
are too profound
lf tomorrow the clocks would not turn
Still Juliet would not return
And it's me....
Who has to tell him
How will l tell him? How will l tell him?
That the worst has happened
How will l tell him?
That the woman he loves is dead
That all happiness has fled
That youth has reached it's end
All that's left is one friend
How will l tell him? This cruel chagrin
How will l tell him?
A family l have never known
l roamed the streets and called it home
And whenever l lose a friend
l then become an orphan
Mercutio sang that life is beautiful
l truly believed it too
Mercutio will never sing again
Here l am, lost and without kin
We were the kings of everything around
Yes, but now our injuries
are too profound
Even if tomorrow, thoughts are repenting
Juliet still would not be living
And it's me....
Who has to tell him
How will l tell him? How will l tell him?
That the worst has happened
How will l tell him?
The woman he loves has just died
And when she left she had inside
Half of his love he had for her
Now she takes it from him forever
How will l tell him? This cruel chagrin
How will l tell him?
How will l tell him? How will l tell him?
That the worst has happened
How will l tell him?
That the woman he loves is dead
That all happiness has fled
That youth has reached it's end
All that's left is one friend
How will l tell him? This cruel chagrin
How will l tell him?
How will i tell him...?
oh oh, oh oh...
oh oh, oh oh...
Benvolio, What are you doing there?
Wake up
You're sleeping you idiot!
You came from Verona
give me some news!
Tell me about Juliet
l can't stand it here
Romeo wait
Come, tell me!
Come on, tell me!
Tell me now!
Romeo!
Juliet is dead!
Romeooooo !
What have you done to her
that she had to go?
What have you done to her?
What was the row?
You have won in part
by keeping us apart
What have you said to her
that she had preferred?
To die so far away from me
That l wasn't even there
To hold her close to me
What have you done to her
that she has left me?
The weight of your regrets
transferred onto my agony
lt's over, l must go
l wanted to know about life
and now l know
l am so spent
Nothing l demand
Just to extend, and take her hand
And lay it on my heart
and let the pain depart
lt's over, l must go
l wanted to know about life
and now l know
Her kisses of honey
Her eyes soft as satin
l will take these feelings with me
And bring them to the heavens
Adieu my Juliet
Eternity awaits us
lt's over, l am leaving
l found how to forget about
peace seeking
l am so spent
l want to know nothing more
Only to extend
and enter through the mirror
And reclaim Juliet until time's end
She waits for me...
Romeo, you came
Thank you Lord
Romeo wake up, let's go!
Come, let us go
Romeo, look, l am alive
You know that Friar Laurent had warned you
Romeo, say something!
Romeo, answer me!
My love, answer me, answer...
ANSWER!!!!
Why stay around and grow old here?
ln a world where you no longer reside
Really what choices are there?
When the one you love commits suicide
Don't look at me to understand
Don't look for anything from me
Burning in love in ashes you stand
Yet keeps you out so you freeze
Me, l'll die for love
Me, l'll die for love
Romeo, Romeo
Life without you passes so quickly
Romeo, l love you so completely
For tonight the day into darkness slips
Without the taste of you on my lips
Romeo, Romeo
l am coming soon wait for me
Romeo, l love you so completely
For tomorrow the sun will come forth
Without the taste of you on my mouth
Maybe you had suffered much too
l have also received a lot for you
l leave you with your hostilities
But, l will depart far from thee
Me, l'll die for love
Me, l'll die for love
Romeo, Romeo
Life without you passes so quickly
Romeo, l love you so completely
For tonight the day into darkness slips
Without the taste of you on my lips
Romeo, Romeo
l am coming soon wait for me
Romeo, l love you so completely
For tomorrow the sun will come forth
Without the taste of you on my mouth
l no longer know, l no longer know
lf l believe in man
and my belief is low
That God is on my side
Oh,l no longer know
l am lost l confide
For you l abandoned everything
l have given you my soul to take
For you l renounced everything
women and the flesh that slakes
l believed in your kindness
but mine l have lost
l can no longer love
All these men just fuel my disgust
l envy the apostles, l envy those
who's belief is in place
l am a man like all the others
who gently drowns and
loses his faith
l no longer know, l no longer know
lsn't it you who said?
Men should love then you see
that they are dead
Oh, l no longer know, l feel dejected
For you l have forgiven, for you
l have done good
For you l have listened to
their secrets as mine would
A little more each day
Would grow and splay
l scream but you listen to what l say
My love for you has frayed
Oh God this is my prayer to you, the same
as my brothers would say
l am a man as are they
On my knees to you l pray
and l am dismayed
Nonetheless l commit to memory
before l commit blasphemy
To say that l love you
to whomever l run into
Life was simple
l had enough love to impart
But the ink of the gospels
has dried with my heart
Oh God of all men
You who are almighty
Listen to the voice of one man
who pleads from his knees
He is on the verge of insanity
l no longer know, l am lost
l no longer know, l no longer know
lsn't it you who said?
Men should love then you see
that they are dead
Oh, l no longer know, l am lost, oh...
l no longer know. No, l no longer know
lf l believe in man and my belief is low
That God is on my side
Oh, l no longer know
l am lost l confide, oh
l no longer know No!...
l no longer know
Our lives appear to be
Nothing but ships lost at sea
Why should our lives go on
When our children are dead and gone
And God and man can see
Exactly what we can be
l pray their souls of crystal
will pardon us for this evil
That our gods are in dismal
Let us make them
Make them rest peacefully
For their love will never be
We're the ones to judge
we're the ones to blame
They are in heaven we are
doomed to flames
This is where the sun sets on
Romeo and Juliet
We're the ones to judge
we're the ones to blame
They are in heaven we are
doomed to flames
This is where the sun sets on
Romeo and Juliet
Guilty, guilty

Thank you all!
Ladies and Gentlemen
We're especially lucky tonight
to welcome not only the TV cameras but
also our producer and composer
Mr. Gerard Presgurvic
Are you excited?
Sing together!
The kings of the world always live on top
The vista is great
but they lack the thought
Of what the people below think of them
That we are the kings and them just men
The kings of the world
in their ivory towers
Sit by themselves in crowded
rooms and glower
Worrying from the first rays
of morning light
While we down below dance
away the night
We make love, we live life
Day after day night after night
What good does it do us to be on earth?
lf it is to live our lives on our knees
We know how fast time is fleeting
To live is the most important thing
Morales sometimes drive us mad
We know that we are really not bad
The kings of the world are afraid of all
They lay their traps fearing they will fall
They protect themselves
whether it be pet or beast
And finally even from love they retreat
The kings of the world
wage constant warfare
There is enough land but never to share
We don't want to fight their war
We don't even know
what we are fighting for
We make love, we live life
Day after day night after night
What good does it do us to be on earth?
lf it is to live our lives on our knees
We know how fast time is fleeting
To live is the most important thing
Morales sometimes drive us mad
We know that we are really not bad
What's up?
l can't hear you!
We make love, we live life
Day after day night after night
What good does it do us to be on earth?
lf it is to live our lives on our knees
What good does it do us to be on earth?
Morales sometimes drive us mad
We know that we are really not bad
Morales sometimes drive us mad
We know that we are really not bad
we are really not bad
We know how fast time is fleeting
Morales sometimes drive us mad
We know that we are really not bad
We make love, we live life
Day after day night after night
What good does it do us to be on earth?
lf it is to live our lives on our knees
We know how fast time is fleeting
What good does it do us to be on earth?
Morales sometimes drive us mad
We know that we are really not bad
