Lempicka the Musical - Finale Lyrics
(Performers - Company)
TAMARA:
Woman is shape, breath, form
Woman is bone, muscle, light
Woman is curve and shadow
Woman is...
AUCTIONEER 1: (spoken)
Yes, I discovered her —
The name is Lempicka.
She had been completely forgotten.
I found a whole cache
Of these canvases in a storage vault in Paris.
Amazing representation of that era!
TAMARA:
And time, merciless beast
Keeps speeding by
AUCTIONEER 1: (spoken)
So decadent! So Deco!
TAMARA:
Unceasing, making us dizzy
Spin and velocity,
Grip the wheel tight
AUCTIONEER 1: (spoken)
But there's something about this work
TAMARA:
Stop
AUCTIONEER 1:
It reaches out
TAMARA:
Just stop
AUCTIONEER 1:
It grabs you
TAMARA:
Catch one momеnt!
AUCTIONEER 1:
The women are likе machines!
The machines are like women!
PATRON;
I bid!
AUCTIONEER 2:
Sold for $2.3 million
AUCTIONEER 3:
For $12.6 million
AUCTIONEER 1:
$25 million!
TAMARA:
Spinning so fast
The world rushes by,
A giant machine
Can you make the world stop?
Just for a moment?
There, your dark eyes,
There your smile
Your laugh, your stride, your light
Your color, your pulse
Your sweat, your speed
Your muscle, your flesh
Your skin, your bone
Your shadow, your breath
Your blood, your mouth
Your cry shattered
Your dark eyes, there your smile
Your laugh, your stride, your light
Your color, your pulse
Your sweat, your speed
Your muscle, your flesh
Your skin, your bone
Your shadow, your breath
Your blood, your mouth
Your cry shattered
Your dark eyes, there your smile
Your laugh, your stride, your light
ENSEMBLE:
The world spins
We live, we die
How can we know?
We never know what will survive
(Revolution!)
When everything shatters
What matters?
You and I
The world spins, hold on tight
Our time!
The world never stops its spin
(Revolution!)
Our time!
The stars never stop their shine
(Hold on tight)
You and I
What will we do?
(Now it's) Our time!
Our time
TAMARA:
We do not control the world
ENSEMBLE:
Our time
TAMARA:
We control one flat rectangle of canvas
At a time
