Tell me where you are.
I’m at home
How old are you?
I’m eleven. And it’s late and I’m trying to sleep, but I can can’t, I can hear—
What?
I can hear—
What?
My father—and he’s crying
Are you ashamed?
Men aren’t supposed to cry
Are you frightened?
Men aren’t supposed to cry
You’re crying too--
Well, wouldn’t you if your father, if your father—
What?
Part 2:
I’m leaving…
Pease don’t go.
I’m leaving— please write and let me know
Don’t I buy you pretty things? Whatever flowers the spring rain brings? Don’t you remember when we met…
I am just a woman. Trapped, lonely—just a woman. And if you’ve loved me, let’s end what we’ve begun. I need light—No!
I need air—No!
I need his touch everywhere—
Whore!
Part 3
Oh Pygmalion, Honoring your father’s shame won’t bring him back to life.
Honoring your mother’s blame won’t punish what she sacrificed.
The trust of your father, the home that they had built.
But think of your mother—the sorrow, and the guilt?
...Losing her only son, whose life had just beguuuuuun? She was just a woman.
Can’t you see what I’m up against
Her joy came at our expense
Can’t you see … she haunts me, she haunts me
Doesn’t everyone deserve to be happy?
Your mother’s just a person too, a woman who was in lo-ov-ove?
The day she walked away I swore I’d never let anyone in
I swore, then and there, I’d never love let begin
Part 4:
It’s a lie—
I loved you as hard as I could
It’s a lie—
If I could save you this hurt I would—
Part 5:
Oh, when you’re a child
they fill you with nonsense, let your heart run wild
It’s all a ploy it’s all a lie
It’s a tale we’ve told a thousand times
And though we grow to know the truth
That there ain’t no one, who’s made for you
We tell the tale, we tell it again
We have the children kneel, Make them say
amennnn
Here it comes...she’s walking out again—
Part 6:
Mama?
My dearest darling, my only son—
Say goodbye boy, my darling one. Your mother is fucking someone…!
—Paul!
Your mother’s breaking our home—
Paul!
Our family—
Please! You’ll forgive me in time—
No I won’t—
Let my life be miiiiiiine! Pygmalion—
I’ll never be far away—
Please. Please. Please. Please. Please—
stay
