Willie I'll meet Willie in the gazebo As the rooster crows Knowing Barnabas has released him From a night of woes I'll be waiting for Willie as the sun rises And know that Willie will soon be mine The sunshine shows on his lovely hair As he comes to the gazebo to meet me there I'm ready for Willie as he comes up the step And his arms around me do gently slip Our bodies meld together in deep ecstasy For I know that Willie truly loves me. |

PANSY AS SHE STAKES BARNABAS Ya killed my Carl, luv Now I'll destroy ya meself! I hate ya for what ya did to my sweet Carl! And ya killed me too in a way. It's fittin' fer me to get ya now. I hate ya! I hate ya! I HATE YA! (As she pounds the stake deep inside his heart!) |

ANGELIQUE TO BARNABAS You took me and tossed me aside! Did you really believe you could get away with that?! Never! I love you! I always will, Barnabas! You belong to me forever and ever! You are my husband, my love, my man! I gave to you what I gave no other! It was all mine to give to the only man I'll ever truly love! How dare you toss me aside like this? I didn't want to do this to you-- Make everyone who loves you die, but I must. I'm almost sorry that little Sarah is first But I mustn't let sentiment or youth stand in my way! Barnabas, you are mine--forever! Barnabas, I am yours for eternity! I don't kill anyone, but your love kills! |

JOSETTE TO BARNABAS I trusted you, Barnabas I loved you so much I came all the way to Collinsport to marry you Perhaps I loved you too much! Or perhaps not enough I am so confused! Who do I trust? And look what's happened in the short time I've been here! Who is to blame for that? And now you tell me you want me to be with you for eternity. Aunt Natalie tells me I can't but she gives me no good reason! I want to give myself to you I'm not afraid I'll love you for eternity Take me, my love! Take me now! I'm yours forever! Wait--no! No! I don't want to become what you are! No! Noooooooooooooooo!(falls to her death) |

BETH TO QUENTIN You don't love me You don't care I want to shoot you I'll pull out your hair. I also want to get Angelique Does she turn you on because she's unique? I stood with you through thick and thin Whether you lost or whether you win. I risked my life on many occasions Because I love you. Why? What were the reasons? You cheated on me time and again But I trusted you until I took that swim! I put up with your philandering while you were married to Jenny I even took care of her--oh, what a ninny! I wouldn't listen to Magda's advice I didn't think I wanted to hear it because it wasn't nice. And when you turned your attention to Amanda I wanted to die and wouldn't have cared But many other women were your trouble And now my own became more tripled than double. And then when you turned into Petofi I called Tim And he betrayed me--I thought I could trust him And now I know I couldn't so I must run Oh no! I'm on the edge of Widow's Hill And now--Stay away! Arrrgghhh! |

Victoria's Dilemma I grew up in a foundling home With others, but I felt all alone Wanting to have a father and mother And maybe some siblings--sisters or brother. I was cheated all of my life you see And felt that no one cared for little old me. But now that I live at Collinwood I have to believe that it really could Happen that I might find my roots here And I know that the answer must be really near But no one wants to tell me anything So a kind of vagueness to my life it brings I get put down for I don't understand But only if someone would give me a hand Or let me know who my parents might be I might then understand all about me! |

DAVID IS A MONSTER? Poor David so misunderstood! "My father never loved me He didn't love my mother If he had I wonder if I'd have a sister or brother? I'm known as a little monster all around Collinwood And I didn't really deserve it It's just that no one understood! I didn't mean for Father to die! I only meant to make him cry-- As I have done so many times Due to no love from anyone." <sigh> So I don't feel so bad for Roger I feel sort of bad, you see, For just like David I know how it feels To believe that no one loved me. |

WALLING UP TRASK! Walling up Trask Would be such a task If only it weren't so much fun We used Quentin's room Wouldn't Amanda swoon And we--Judith and I--laugh as it's done. Walling up Trask Did he deserve it, you ask? We believe that he really did He took Judith for her money And it wasn't really funny And sent Aristede to make sure she was dead-- Like Minerva! Garth Blackwood got him! So Judith called me, Tim And asked that I help her out-- She drugged the black-hearted creep And while he did sleep We put him in Quentin's room with a silent shout. The bricks and the mortar were waiting, you see And Judith left that revenge up to me. So after we were through Trask got his due And she drove him completely insane. |

JEB'S SWAN SONG Me and my shadow Soon will have to part For it frightens me so Of it I want no part! Me and my shadow It follows me wherever I go I can't escape its treacherous creeping It goes wherever and however I go. Angelique, she cursed me Wanting me dead by and by She put the blame, you see On me for being betrayed by her Sky. It wasn't my fault I was only a pawn To be used and used Again, you see, So now there's only one place I can go And that is to the rocks far below I'll dive off Widow's Hill like a swan! |

CAROLYN'S LITANY TO JEB (A song parody) Why do the birds go on singing? Why do the stars glow above? Don't they know it's the end of the world It ended when I lost your love. Why does the sun go on shining? Why does the sea rush to shore? Don't they know it's the end of the world Cause you don't love me anymore. Why does my heart go on beating? Why do these eyes of mine cry? Don't they know it's the end of the world It ended when you had to die! |

Charity to Quentin My parents want me to marry you I don't know why, but I feel so blue I'm no more in love with you than Tim And yet my father once engaged me to him. I won't ever marry--not even you-- For my heart will remain forever true As father expected me to remain Pure and virginal as long as I'm sane. You attract me so much and yet, you see-- Getting married at all can never be For soon I won't be myself And Charity will remain forever on a shelf. You once sang to me and danced And I thought I'd just prance But now I know it will never be For in a wink of an eye, I was banished by Petofi! |
