Lyrics

Meanwhile, in a dark corner of a nearby tavern, three men speak in low voices. And they like Dantes not. Danglar, the vengeful shipmate, Fernand, would-be suitor to Mercedes, and Caderousse, the jealous neighbor of the Dantes family. Dangerous men, all, Conspirators.

Down from his vantage, with jealousy's eyes
Brooding and spiteful, and chewing his lies
A once hopeful suitor, now love's bitter foe
Silently nurses his hate as it grows

She is everything I want, and everything I need
Her heart should be mine!
She gives everything to him, sees everything in him
SHE WILL BE MINE!

I've loved you forever
Your voice makes me catch my breath
Each made for the other
In life or in death

I've waited a lifetime
And I'll not be made the fool
Yet Dantes controls the stage
What more can I do?

I hate a man whose life is too easy
Take him down a notch, if you please
I see a boy, quite above himself
I know the way, I will make him pay, he will be sorry that ever he ever climbed over me

He as my captain, I will not abide
Give me a crook or a shill on my side
Someone to blame, someone to bend
Someone unhappy with our little friend . . .

Listen, my unhappy friend, you will see
It's not quite so hopeless as things seem to be
With Dantes disposed of, his bride can be yours
You just have to know how to open the doors . . .

She is all that I want, and everything I need
Her heart should be mine!
This is my time, this is my place
SHE WILL BE MINE!

I've got a secret, I've got a plan
And this little problem will soon be in hand
We dare not attack him directly it's true
But secrets may work their magic for you
You'll get the girl and our Dantes is through!
