A Gentleman's Guide - Foolish to Think (Reprise) Lyrics

Broadway production (2013)
A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder the Musical - Foolish to Think (Reprise) Lyrics

REVEREND LORD EZEKIEL: (spoken)
Oh...ah...I'm...I'm afraid I shall need your hand, please!

MONTY: (spoken)
Yes, of course, my Lord!

Foolish to think I could let him fall
He's on the brink, it seems
But why should I pause
When I know the cause of mother's...
Shattered dream?

REVEREND LORD EZEKIEL:
Help me, you presumptuous climber!

MONTY:
What can I do for the D'Ysquiths
To repay their warm embrace?
What can I take from the D'Ysquiths except,
Perhaps their place?

But with eight other D'Ysquiths ahead of me,
Their foolish pride survives

REVEREND LORD EZEKIEL:
I beg you!

MONTY:
What can I take from the D'Ysquiths?
Except, perhaps... except, perhaps...

REVEREND LORD EZEKIEL:
Please!

MONTY:
Except, Perhaps their lives

Who will look foolish then?
