Ladies
Gentlemen
I love you all
I love every single one of you
and I'm not sure
where it all goes
sometimes
so please forgive me
these tears
are tears of joy
and if the band
could continue to play
I'm sorry
we do have a great show for you
tonight
I promise
I am so very lonely
you are so obviously
ready
for a great evening
and here I am
sobbing
because you are so very wonderful
and I wish
I could take all of you home with me
but there are so many of you
and my house is so small
and please
stay in your seats
don't rush up here
all at once
I'm afraid this isn't a first come first serve affair
because there are some out there
you know who you are
I still burn a candle for you
and if the band could please keep playing
I have so much love to give
so much
if one of you could just
just
goddammit
why is this always so hard?
why is this
so hard?
keep playing
keep fucking playing!
Ladies
dear ladies
sweet gentlemen
please do not think me forward
I find this tuxedo
far too binding
I want you to see me
as I am
a man
a man like any other
there's no need
no need for those remarks, sir
madame, madame please
think of the ears of the person next to you
ah, good evening, gentlemen
well, this is so very formal
it appears our time together is at an end
I am afraid that my love
has grown even stronger
there it is
right there
how marvelous
good night
and enjoy the show
get your hands off of me
I know the way
