The whispers in the morning
Of lovers sleeping tight
Are rolling by like thunder now
As I look in your eyes
I hold on to your whole body
And feel each move you make
Your voice is warm and tender
A love that I could not forsake
‘Cause I’m your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I’ll do all that I can
Lost is how I’m feeling lying in your arms
When the world outside’s too much to take
That all ends when I’m with you
Even though there may be times
It seems I’m far away
Never wonder where I am
‘Cause I am always by your side
‘Cause I’m your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I’ll do all that I can
We’re heading for something
Somewhere I’ve never been
Sometimes I am frightened
But I’m ready to learn
Of the power of love
The sound of your heart beating
Made it clear suddenly
The feeling that I can’t go on
Is light years away
‘Cause I’m your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I’ll do all that I can
We’re heading for something
Somewhere I’ve never been
Sometimes I am frightened
But I’m ready to learn
Of the power of love
The power of love
The power of love
Sometimes I am frightened
But I’m ready to learn
Of the power of love
The power of love
As I look in your eyes
The power of love
(spoken) Ladies and gentlemen, brethren and sinners all! I call upon our Goddess of the Virtues to give us her well known rendition of the old school song — Oom-Pah-Pah!
NANCY
(spoken) All right, shut up, you lot! A bit of culture now! ‘Ere we go…
(sung) There’s a little ditty
They’re singing in the city
Ecspecilly when they’ve been
On the gin
Or the beer
If you’ve got the patience
Your own imaginations
Will tell you just exactly what you want to hear…

Oom-pah-pah! Oom-pah-pah!

When they hear… oom-pah-pah!!
Mister Percy Snodgrass
Would often have the odd glass —
But never when he thought anybody could see
Secretly he’d buy it
And drink it on the quiet
And dream he was an Earl
Wiv a girl on each knee!

Could it be… oom-pah-pah!?
Pretty little Sally
Goes walking down the alley
Displays her pretty ankles to all of the men
They could see her garters
But not for free-and-gratis–
An inch or two, and then she knows
When to say when!
ALL
Oom-pah-pah! Oom-pah-pah!
That’s how it goes
Oom-pah-pah! Oom-pah-pah!
Ev’ryone knows…
NANCY
Whether it’s hidden, or whether it shows —
It’s the same… oom-pah-pah!
She was from the country
But now she’s up a gum-tree —
She let a feller beat ‘er, then lead ‘er along
What’s the good o’ cryin’?
She’s made a bed to lie in
She’s glad to bring the coin in
And join in this song!
ALL
Oom-pah-pah! Oom-pah-pah!
That’s how it goes!
Oom-pah-pah! Oom-pah-pah!
Ev’ryone knows

She is no longer the same blushing rose
Ever since … oom-pah-pah!
(spoken) Altogether now!

AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION PARTIES:
I’ve gotta take a little time
A little time to think things over
I better read between the lines
In case I need it when I’m older
This mountain, I must climb
Feels like a world upon my shoulders
Through the clouds, I see love shine
Keeps me warm as life grows colder
In my life, there’s been heartache and pain
I don’t know if I can face it again
Can’t stop now, I’ve traveled so far
To change this lonely life
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me (hey)
Gotta take a little time
Little time to look around me
I’ve got nowhere left to hide
Looks like love has finally found me
In my life, there’s been heartache and pain
I don’t know if I can face it again
Can’t stop now, I’ve traveled so far
To change this lonely life
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me
I wanna know what love is (I wanna know)
I want you to show me (I wanna feel)
I wanna feel what love is (I know, I know, and I know)
I know you can show me
Let’s talk about love
I wanna know what love is
(Love that you feel inside)
I want you to show me
(I’m feeling so much love)
I wanna feel what love is
(And you know, you just can’t hide)
I know you can show me
Oh, I wanna know what love is
(Let’s talk about love)
I know you can show me
(I wanna feel)
I wanna feel what love is
(And you know you just can’t hide)
I know you can show me
I wanna feel what love is (oh, I wanna know)
I want you to show me
-GHOST OF JACOB MARLEY-
It is required of every man,
that his spirit travel far.
Lending help to those he can,
no matter who they are.
But if you don’t go forth in life,
spreading joy and easing pain,
your spirit will go forth in death,
and you shall wear a chain!
These were coins I hoarded for a rainy day,
now with every jingle I’m distressed!
Locks and keys that helped me keep the poor away…
That’s what put these locks and keys around my waist..
Link by link,
my chain was getting longer!
Link by link,
I should’ve heard a clink!
Link by link,
each year a little stronger..
Link by link by HORRIFYING link!
Stacking up my silver and my bits of gold,
filling up my vault when day was done!
Well, vaults are made of lead
and cash is very cold!
And around your neck they weigh a bloody ton!
Link by link,
You’re on the brink.
It’s written here,
in blood-red ink.
Unlock your heart!
It’s not too late!
For you’ll be dragging something more than
twice this weight!
-SCROOGE-
No, please…
-GHOST OF JACOB MARLEY-
Ebenezer Scrooge…
-SCROOGE-
Y-yes?
-GHOST OF JACOB MARLEY-
You shall be visited by three ghosts!
-SCROOGE-
Umm, no thank you..
-GHOST OF JACOB MARLEY-
When the clock strikes one –
the Ghost of Christmas Past..
-SCROOGE-
I prefer not to think about the past..
-GHOST OF JACOB MARLEY-
When the clock strikes two –
the Ghost of Christmas Present..
-SCROOGE-
At present, I’d rather go to bed. Good night…
-GHOST OF JACOB MARLEY-
When the clock strikes three –
the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Be!
Three ghosts who yet may stop you
from ending up like me…
~ Ghosts of other greedy men and women invade Scrooge’s room. ~
-GHOST CHORUS-
Singing sorry spirits who were once like you!*
Dragging chains are all that we’ve acquired.
All the good in life it’s now too late to do..
not to mention this could really make you tired!
Link by link,
your chain is in the making!
Link by link,
no way to make it shrink!
Link by link,
just listen to it shaking!
Whoo ooooo oooooo ooooo
oooooo oooo ooooooo oo
oooo oooo whooo ooo ooooo

Your life must be corrected..

Oh, oh, hmm
Where are you Christmas
Why can’t I find you
Why have you gone away
Where is the laughter
You used to bring me
Why can’t I hear music play
My world is changing
I’m rearranging
Does that mean Christmas changes too
Where are you Christmas
Do you remember
The one you used to know
I’m not the same one
See what the time’s done
Is that why you have let me go, oh
Christmas is here
Everywhere, oh
Christmas is here
If you care, oh
If there is love in your heart and your mind
You will feel like Christmas all the time
Oh, I feel you Christmas
I know I’ve found you
You never fade away, oh
The joy of Christmas
Stays here inside us
Fills each and every heart with love
Where are you Christmas
Fill your heart with love, mmhm
VERSE
I had a dream of Christmas
A Time when dreams come true
A special dream of Christmas
And spending it with you
Sitting by the fire
holding you so tight
Feeling safe and warm and loved
On a beautiful Christmas night
BRIDGE
We won’t be needing mistletoe
to know just what to do
A look in your eyes and I will know
Its time for kissing you
I know its just a dream
But it feels so real to me
You and I should always be together
here at christmas time
CHORUS
I wont be alone for Christmas
Even though we’re miles apart
I’ll never be alone for Christmas
Because I hold you in my heart
Always hold you so deep in my heart
VERSE
I know you have to be away now
I know there inst any choice
But I know that every day now
I long to hear your voice
I know you wish the same as I do
You say the same things that I say
how you wish you could be near me
Specially on christmas day
BRIDGE
Watch the snow fall all around us
Walking hand in hand
Feel so close together
but we both understand
I know its just a dream
But it feels so real to me
You and I should always be together
here at christmas time
MIDDLE 8
Some people do just fine on their own
Some of them prefer to be alone
But I am telling you, come what may,
I wont be on my own on christmas day.
CHORUS
I wont be alone for Christmas
Even though we’re miles apart
I’ll never be alone for Christmas
Because I hold you in my heart
Always hold you so deep in my heart
CHORUS
I wont be alone for Christmas
Even though we’re miles apart
I’ll never be alone for Christmas
Because I hold you in my heart
Always hold you so deep in my heart
