They've come with Fat Yu

to hear you sing.

Please get changed quickly.

Fat Yu?. That fat pig!

Please hurry.

Shuisheng,

bring me the red dress.

Hurry up!

It's next to the green one.

The red one!

Don't you understand?.

Have you ever seen blood?.

Bumpkin!

Can't you do anything right?.

They've stuck me with a moron!

A half-wit!

Calm down, Miss.

I'll help you.

Buzz off.

Pretending, youre pretending

Don't bother pretending

You can't wait to look at me

Don't be shy, take a good look

Don't bother pretending

We have the same tastes!

Mr. Yu, do you think

she sings well?.

She looks better

than she sings!

I love it

when she sings this song.

A lot of people sing it...

but not as well as her.

Listen. Listen carefully.

It comes and goes...

as softly

as a goose's feather, right?.

Yes, it's interesting.

Isn't it!

Embarrassed, embarrassed

Why be embarrassed?

You think you love me

You want to love me

So come right out and say it

Don't look so serious

Don't look so distant

Don't look so serious

Don't look so distant

You're blushing

Your heart is beating

I can tell

you're consumed by desire

Roving up, roving down

All over my body

I feel your eyes

Roving up, roving down

All over my body

I feel your eyes

Get lost!

F*** off!.

Don't ever come back!

Didn't you ever care for me?.

Bastard! Pig!

Who do you think I am?.

You treat me like a whore!

You lousy bastard!

Drop dead!

Just because you f***ed me,

you think you're the boss?.

Don't kid yourself!.

Dont you know

who the boss is in Shanghai?.

I'm the boss now.

Drop dead, bastard!

Go f*** yourself!.

Who do you think you are?.

What are you?.

A jerk! A f***ing jerk!

You want to play

at being the boss?.

THI RD DAY:

I beg you, go away

Go quickly, far away

Your heart, hard as rock

Your heart has me

under its spell

I beg you, go away

Go quickly

Far away

Your heart, hard as rock

Your heart has me

under its spell

You have consumed my heart

You have consumed my body

Your heart, hard as rock

You have no heart

You have consumed my heart

You have consumed my body

Your heart, hard as a rock

You have no heart

SHANG HAI - PARI S

SHANG HAI - U.S.A.

It's a big party

All the guests are here

Men and women, happy together

You're too good

at mah-jongg, Mr. Yu!

You're too modest.

Tell Miss I'm going to Mr. Yu's

for mah-jongg.

I'll be back late.

Tell her to wait at home.

Yes, tell her to wait!

After you.

Uncle Liu! Uncle Liu!

Here's the Boss.

Boss...

his eyes are still open.

Let him go.

Fat Yu's gang did it.

Your uncle died protecting me.

Take a good look.

His open eyes cry out for vengeance.
