Miss Giry, I'm not afraid of him, I've bested him before And if he ever had the courage to meet me face to face, man to man No, no, it can't be Not afraid of me, you say? Stay back or I'll kill you, I promise you Of course, as you say, you've beaten me before But that was a long time ago, Vicomte And we were playing a different game
Look at you, deep in debt Stinking drunk, pitiful Shall we two make a bet? Devil take the hindmost
Look at you, foul as sin Hideous, horrible Call the stakes, deal me in Devil take the hindmost
Our Christine shall choose tonight (Let her choose) Is she yours or mine? (Draw the line)
If she sings, you lose tonight (I won't lose) You leave from here (Fine) Disappear (Fine)
And if she won't, if I win All your debt's wiped away Very well, let's begin Devil take the hindmost
You think you have the odds (Our old game) You think you're in control (It's been changed)
You think you've fixed the dice (Every throw) Well, I will gladly roll (Risking her)
I'll bet against the house (All the rules) I'll even double down (Rearranged) (Fate has redesigned most) Fortune's on my side
I won her long ago (Cut the deck) I won her from you then (Let us play)
I beat you even now (Roll your die)
I'll win her back again (Once again)
(In the end) And when the game is done Either way Devil take the hindmost
Now Christine shall choose at last Is she yours or mine? We've a son, our bond's secure Are you sure? What? Are you so sure?
What do you mean? Such a child, strange to see, different, musical Huh? Is he more you or me? Which one do you find most? You lie
Deal the cards (I call your bluff) Let them fall (The game is on)
Choose your hand (And we will see) Try your best (Who wins out)
He who wins (Once and for all) Wins it all Devil take the hindmost
Deal the cards (I call your bluff) Let them fall (The game is on)
Choose your hand (And we will see) Try your best (Who wins out)
He who wins (Once and for all) Wins it all Devil take the hindmost
She walks, you leave together Pockets full, debts paid She sings, you leave alone Devil take the hindmost
Oh, my God What have I done? Look at me The concert's only hours away
