CLAUDIA Don't chastise me, I'm a child Acting as a child does. You ply me with lifeless dolls When what I want is blood. You took me from the streets to complete this union. Do you expect some little saint kneeling for communion? I want more! I want more! Look at you, you disapprove, like two fussy mothers. Who are you to criticize the habits of another. Did I rock the family boat by dining on the help? Aren't I just a little beast? Well, I can't stop myself! I want more! I want more! I don't want their milk and honey They can keep those fine herb teas. I don't need their chocolate hot and sweet. It's thick and red for me! For everyone that comes along, Knocking on deaths door. Don't blame me - it's your fault That I want more! Louis My darling, it's not your fault. It's Lestat's. Lestat My fault!? Louis You're not loving enough to her. Lestat I give her everything her black little heart desires, and still she does this! CLAUDIA Look at me, I'm so sweet. I'm innocent and charming. But all you see is some spoiled brat A child so demanding. Don't fuss so! You both know the rapture of the bite. It's not monstrous! It's just Claudia's healthy appetite! And I want more! I want more! Should I be the little miss And while away the hours? I think not, I'd rather hunt Than cut up paper flowers. Thanks to you the things I do verge on the obscene. What a pair of hypocrites! Well, this cat wants her cream! I want more! I want more! I want more! Lestat You're too lenient! Louis You're too cold! Lestat She needs to be punished. Louis She needs love and kindness. I'll wander through the streets at night And find a charming couple. Who'd fear that such an angel lost Could find herself in trouble. They can't resist my trembling lip My eyes so filled with tears. They rest my head upon their necks... Oh, dear! More!! I want more! I want more! I don't want their milk and honey. They can keep those fine herb teas. I don't need their chocolate hot and sweet. Tt's thick and red for me! For everyone that comes along, Knocking on deaths door. Don't blame me - it's your fault That I want more! I want more! I want more! I want more! I want more!
Yukiko Nakamura The fancy writing is so beautiful and the lonely tree in the red darkness gives me the chills! This is a great song from a great musical. It's a shame the critics destroyed it and it closed before fans like us could see it! We were cheated.
Glad you like it! :) You are right! The songs I´ve heard were all pretty good and I would have loved to see the full musical. But at least we have some of the songs here on youtube and can get a taste of what we missed. (Sorry if my english is really bad, I´m not used to write/speak english)
Yukiko Nakamura Your English is perfect. There are some videos that people who were at the show have recorded and posted on RU-vid. I'm sure you've probably seen that already. 😃
Sadly you're not missing much from the show itself. I love most of the songs from this show, but the execution of the story was sadly quite the clumsy mess. Enjoy the videos and the soundtrack for some great songs in isolation, but I can definitely see why this show didn't last long taken as a whole.
Lestat did this to her because he wanted Louis to stay with him. He robbed Claudia of her life just like he did to Louis. All she wanted was to become a woman.
