[00:00.43]Your public needs you
[00:02.68]we need you too
[00:04.06]Would you not rather have your precious little ingénue
[00:09.90]Signora, no
[00:11.38]The world wants you
[00:16.80]Prima donna, first lady of the stage
[00:22.54]Your devotees are on their knees to implore you
[00:30.00]Can you bow out when they're shouting your name
[00:37.12]Think of how they all adore you
[00:43.56]Prima donna, enchant us once again
[00:49.88]Think of your muse
[00:51.67]And of the queues round the theatre
[00:57.90]Can you deny us the triumph in store
[01:03.95]Sing, prima donna, once more
[01:11.53]Prima donna, your song shall live again
[01:17.28]You took a snub
[01:19.10]But there's a public who needs you
[01:22.92]Those who hear your voice liken you to an angel
[01:25.66]Think of their cry of undying support
[01:31.98]Follow where the limelight leads you
[01:37.55]Leading ladies are a trial
[01:39.32]Prima donna, your song will never die
[01:44.77]You'll sing again and to an unending ovation
[01:52.63]Think how you'll shine in that final encore
[01:58.94]Sing, prima donna, once more!
[02:06.24]Who'd believe a diva happy to relieve a chorus girl
[02:10.26]Who's gone and slept with the patron
[02:12.84]Raoul and the soubrette, entwined in love's duet
[02:16.25]Although he may demur, he must have been with her
[02:19.88]You'd never get away with all this in a play
[02:23.02]But if it's loudly sung and in a foreign tongue
[02:26.54]It's just the sort of story audiences adore
[02:30.07]In fact a perfect opera
[02:33.72]Prima donna, the world is at your feet
[02:39.78]A nation waits and how it hates to be cheated
[02:47.39]Light up the stage with that age old rapport
[02:54.47]Sing, prima donna
[02:58.62]Once more
[03:08.59]So, it is to be war between us!
[03:12.59]If these demands are not met
[03:15.90]A disaster beyond imagination will occur!!
[03:21.49]Once more!!!
