Clive Nolan - The Unwelcome Guest lyrics
Gardelle: We must find those letters… you try over there and I'll check the desk. Can it be true? This is incredible! Eva: You have what we need? Gardelle: Yes, I believe so but we still have no idea where to look! Eva: I hear voices – someone's coming. Gardelle: Quick hide. Muncey: I will not tell you again, get out of this house! You should not be here! Greaves: My dear Lady I was sent here by Lord Jagman himself. Muncey: He said nothing to me about this! Greaves: I have to collect some papers for him. Muncey: I don't care what you say you have to collect…you are here for your own purposes… Greaves: Please be calm Mrs. Muncey, my agenda is of the purest nature. I simply obey the master's instructions I simply am paid to follow his words to the letter So trust me dear Lady Muncey You should leave! Why must I trust Ben Greaves? If there was truth in your words Then they did of malnourishment Manners of breeding bore you as a punishment Subtlety, caring – thoughtfulness failed Left in the gutter, allowed to go stale Honesty, this final stand – I will not bear So do the one thing you can do for me now And just leave Greaves: Tomorrow at midnight this revelry starts At Highgate the cemetery lost in the dark And then my dear we will know where it lies A clue to the true location It's a clue to the true location The Hellfire Club will meet on this night In fire we'll dance, in shadows we'll hide When the power of the moon To its fullest has grown And shines through the harp of an angel Shines through the harp of an angel Muncey: Don't even look at the silverware I know you took something when last you were here And don't call me dear Shines through the harp of an angel Shines through the harp of an angel If there was truth in your words Then they died of malnourishment Manners of breeding bore you as a punishment Subtlety, caring – thoughtfulness failed Left in the gutter, allowed to go stale Honesty, this final stand – I will not bear So take up this book and the papers you look for And do the one thing you can do for me now And just leave! Greaves: Please be calm – be calm dear lady Please be calm – be calm my dear Till I have what I came for I'll not take the blame for Defying the plans that were set for me here Instructions are followed and so for tomorrow I'll take up this book and the papers I look for And do the one thing I can do for you now And just leave Eva & Gardelle: So they think their plans are sealed But now we know and all's revealed Now we have them – Fools unwitting We will bring them to their knees Muncey: The drink on your breath is enough to offend Why couldn't the master have sent a more Suitable man for the job He knows what I think He knows that you drink far too much I'd be mad to trust in the name of Ben Greaves… Mad…mad! Greaves: I have what I came for now Trust me…it's time for me to go I have what I came for now…now Muncey: If there was truth in your words Then they died of malnourishment Manners of breeding bore you as a punishment Subtlety, caring – thoughtfulness failed Left in the gutter, allowed to go stale Honesty, this final stand – I will not bear So take up this book and the papers you look for And do the one thing you can do for me now Truth in your words Then they died of malnourishment Manners of breeding bore you as a punishment Subtlety, caring – thoughtfulness failed Left in the gutter, allowed to go stale Honesty, this final stand – I will not bear So take up this book and the papers you look for And let us return to a state of tranquility Stop hanging round like a worm in the ground Do the one thing you can do for me now Just leave…leave…leave!
