Dragon Lady Lyrics (Incomplete) from the musical, 'Forbidden City: The Portrait of an Empress'


Kate:
Now will they understand
I have been waiting for so long
To see the day the world will see
What I have seen,
Lord, let them see clearly
Now they will know the face that I have know,
Reaching through the years,
Will they feel the same way,
Will they know her now?
This day I'll know
If I called her,
If I brought her life time
From the shadows of the past
To the light


Child: I'm the empress dowager, and I'm gonna bite your legs off.
Peasants: Ahahaha...
Child: I'm gonna boil everybody's head in chicken soup.
Peasants: Ahahaha...
Man: She'll suck your brains off through your nose and that's just for starters!
Peasants: Eew..(in disgust)
Woman: Beware the Dragon Lady! She'll eat your heart out while you're dreaming!
Child: She's not gonna get me!
Man: Watch out, she's behind you!
Man: Be careful she will find you!
Man2: And when she does, she'll leave you screaming.
Man: She loves children, Really?!
Man: Roasted in oyster sauce!
Woman: She never owe these peasants, she rather eat her peasants.
Peasants: She is the curse of China!
Woman: She even killed her own son.
Woman: She murdered her son?!
Man: She loves to kill for pleasure.
Man: Beheading children out of fonder? (couldn't get what he say)
Pleasants: When her lad is dying, No one's ever heard her crying!
Man: We know where this is leading, she'll praise herself for china's bleeding
Women: In the dragon glory.
Men: For it is an evil glory!
Women: Noone has seen or heard her, that's why she loves to murder.
Pleasants: She is the curse of China!
Woman: It's the emperor I feel sorry for... she's made him so weak!
Woman: Like she suck the life out of him!
Pleasants: She is the dragon lady, who is this evil dragon lady!
Man: She destroyed my den!
Pleasants: Behold the dragon lady, the gruesome, twisted dragon lady!
Woman: She destroyed my family!
Pleasants: She raped the pride of China, she shaped the death of China. Beware the Dragon Lady!


Kate:
If what they say is true,
Why have I come so far to paint,
The eyes so many hate,
The lips that order death.
Lord! Why have I come here?
Soon I will see the face so many fear.
Lord! What has she done?
Can I paint such people?
Should I paint at all?


What will I find?
Can I know her?
Will I see her story?
By the shadows and the shade,
of her eyes?
