The Tales of Hoffmann
(0.00 / 0 votes)Some drink, drink, drink, drink, drink
Do you hear us about
You lazy lout
We want some beer
We want some wine
We want some wine
We want some beer
We want some wine
We want some beer
We want some wine
Pour out the wine
and drink and drink till morning
Pour out the wine
for drinking is divine
It is divine
Pour out the wine
and drink and drink till morning
Pour out the wine
Pour out the wine
And drink
for drinking is divine
We want some wine
and drink till morning
We want some wine
and drink till morning
We want some wine
We want some wine
And drink and drink till morning
We want some wine
Good day, my friends
Good day
A chair, a glass of wine
and a pipe
Excuse me, Master
if you don 't mind
I'll sit and drink and smoke
same as you
Fair's fair
- How true
Make a place for two
Come on, make a place for two
Nott' e giorno mal dormire
The devil take you and Mozart
At once, sir
What makes you so put out
Indeed we never would have known you
Now what on earth
brought that about
Frozen earth all dead or dying
There in the snow buried deep
And outside where he was lying
The sight of a drunkard asleep
That's true
Seeing him there
For drinking
Yes, drinking
Then do the same
Lie down there in the ditch
- And for a pillow
- The pavement
- And for a roof
- The sky
- What about sheets
- The rain
Are you having nightmares, Hoffmann
Don 't make us ask again
Yes, leave that to us
Right
Choose something that's gay
Sing the song of the rat
No, we're all sick of that
I know
We'll have to have
the one about Kleinzach
Oh, yes, come on
We'll have the song about Kleinzach
Right
Here's Kleinzach
Now long ago
the duke of renowned Eisenach
The duke of Eisenach
Employed a tiny clown
with the name of Kleinzach
He had the name Kleinzach
He wore a busby big and black
And his noddle
his noddle did go crick-crack
Crick-crack
Crick-crack
So that's
So that's Kleinzach
- Crick-crack
- Crick-crack
- Crick-crack
- Crick-crack
So that's
So that's
Kleinzach
He also had a paunch
quite as stout as a stack
As stout as any stack
His feet looked just like twigs
sticking out of a sack
Like twigs in any sack
He capered like a jumping jack
And his knees cracked together
And went click-clack
Click-clack
Click-clack
So that's
So that's Kleinzach
- Click-clack
- Click-clack
- Click-clack
- Click-clack
So that's
So that's
Kleinzach
Now what words
What words to paint those features
Now what words to paint those features
Now what words
What words to paint those features
Past comparing
She is there
Fair
Fair as dawn of the day
When love first bade me dare
to leave the home of my youth
And in my heart to swear
I would fly far away
Oh, her hair
Oh, her hair with its curls entwining
of her bosom was shining
Her eyes, her eyes
unfathomed lakes of blue
A reflection as true
And as our pageant car
By cupids all attended
Sped on with ne'er a jar
Her voice with triumph blended
While mortals held their breath
Sang out with heavenly art
While mortals held their breath
She sang with heavenly art
Till echoes melt in death
Resounding
Through
My heart
Oh, Stella
Three souls
United as one
True artist
Tender maiden
And courtesan
My mistress
No, no, rather say my three
Three magic visions fair to see
Of all my life they claimed a part
Would you hear
