Andrew Lloyd Webber - What a Dreadful Town! (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) lyrics

[RAOUL] What a dreadful town What a vulgar place What an awful mistake to have come here To be on display In that shameless way For the crude common lower cla** scum here How do they dare to treat us so? [GUSTAVE] Father dear Come play with Come and see this toy I bought [RAOUL] What a slum at most From our so-called host Did he think sending freaks would be funny? Could the fool have thought That our pride was bought By his filthy American money What a farce! What an outright slap in the face! An utter disgrace! I've got a mind to pack and go! Never you mind the debts we owe! Who would have thought we'd sunk this low [GUSTAVE] Father dear, come play with me [RAOUL] Gustave enough, the answer's no! (Gustave Plays a Song on the Piano) [RAOUL] Must you play now? [GUSTAVE] I think it's beautiful [RAOUL] What is it? [GUSTAVE] I don't know! It was just here on the piano [RAOUL] Well it hurts my head! [CHRISTINE] Please let's not fight dear I'm sure Mr. Hammerstein never intended a slight dear [RAOUL] How dare you patronize me? We should never have accepted [CHRISTINE] We need the money That's all That's why things haven't been right dear [RAOUL] Why doesn't it surprise me that I get the blame here? [CHRISTINE] Let's leave tonight dear If it would serve to ease your troubled mind Leave the hurt behind [GUSTAVE] Father dear, come over here And look at what they gave to me Wind it up and father see Look it plays a melody [CHRISTINE] Raoul... [RAOUL] What's this? (A doorman arrives with a note) [CHRISTINE] What is it? [RAOUL] It's from Hammerstein. He wants to meet me in the hotel bar, alone. Well, he may lack courtesy, but he does show a certain savoir-faire in choosing a business rendezvous. [CHRISTINE] Raoul, please... [RAOUL] Please what? [CHRISTINE] Nothing [GUSTAVE] Father never plays with me Doesn't he love me? [CHRISTINE] Oh, darling!
