Masquerade Маскарад

CHORUS:
Masquerade!
Paper faces on parade . . .
Masquerade!
Hide your face,
So the world will
Never find you!

Masquerade!
Every face a different shade...
Masquerade!
Look around -
There's another
Mask behind you!

Flash of mauve...
Splash of puce...
Fool and king...
Ghoul and goose...
Green and black...
Queen and priest...
Trace of rouge...
Face of beast...

Faces...
Take your turn, take a ride
On the merry-go-round...
In an inhuman race...

Eye of gold...
Thigh of blue...
True is false...
Who is who...?
Curl of lip...
Swirl of gown...
Ace of hearts...
Face of clown...

Faces...
Drink it in, drink it up,
Till you've drowned
In the light...
In the sound...

RAOUL/CHRISTINE:
But who can name the face...?

ALL:
Masquerade!
Grinning yellows,
Spinning reds...
Masquerade!
Take your fill -
Let the spectacle
Astound you!

Masquerade!
Burning glances,
Turning heads...
Masquerade!
Stop and stare
At the sea of smiles
Around you!

Masquerade!
Seething shadows,
Breathing lies...
Masquerade!
You can fool
Any friend who
Ever knew you!

Masquerade!
Leering satyrs,
Peering eyes...
Masquerade!
Run and hide -
But a face will
Still pursue you!

GIRY:
What a night!

MEG:
What a crowd!

ANDRE:
Makes you glad!

FIRMIN:
Makes you proud!
All the creme
De la creme!

CARLOTTA:
Watching us
Watching them!

MEG/GlRY:
And all our fears
Are in the past!

ANDRE:
Six months...

PIANGI:
Of relief!

CARLOTTA:
Of delight!

ANDRE/FIRMIN:
Of Elysian peace!

MEG/GIRY:
And we can
Breathe at last!

CARLOTTA:
No more notes!

PIANGI:
No more ghost!

GIRY:
Here's a health!

ANDRE:
Here's a toast:
To a prosperous year!

FIRMIN:
To the new chandelier!

PIANGI/CARLOTTA:
And may its
Splendour never fade!

FIRMIN:
Six months!

GIRY:
What a joy!

MEG:
What a change!

FIRMIN/ANDRE:
What a blessed release!
