Текст песни Devil Take The Hindmost - Quartet - Andrew Lloyd Webber

Ready on the rail?
Ready on the rail

Will she sing?
Will she flee?
What is she thinking now?
Is it him?
Is it me?
Devil take the hindmost

Ready on the floor?
Ready on the floor

Will she stay? (Obey your heart)
Will she go? (And sing for me)
Does she know (you want it so)
Even now? (Stay and be mine)
Please, Christine, stop the show (eternally)
Devil take the hindmost

Now it's time
So make your choice
Do it for our son
Use your head
No time to wait
Hesitate
We're all undone

Ready in the pit?
Ready in the pit

Will she stay? (Perhaps she won't go on)
Will she go? (Perhaps she'll lose her nerve)
Does she know (perhaps her voice won't serve)
Even now? (And she will fail him now)
Please, Christine (and then my child and I)
Stop the show (will get what we deserve)
Devil take the hindmost

Will she stay? (Perhaps she won't go on)
Will she go? (Perhaps she'll lose her nerve)
Does she know (perhaps her voice won't serve)
Even now? (And she will fail him now)
Please, Christine (and then my child and I)
Stop the show (will get what we deserve)
Devil take the hindmost

Now it's time
No turning back
All is on the line
Here it is
The final dance
One last chance
To get what's mine

I hope Christine is worthy of you
I hope her singing makes up for what your blindness has done to Meg and me

Devil take the hindmost

And, curtain!
