Why so silent, good Messieurs?
Did you think that I had left you for good?
Have you missed me, good Messieurs?
I have written you an opera
Here I bring the finished score:
Don Juan Triumphant!
Fondest greetings to you all
few [bad word] just before rehearsal starts
Carlotta must be taught to act
Not her normal trick of [bad word] around the stage
Our Don Juan must lose weight
It's not healthy in a man of Piangi's age
And my managers must learn 
That their place is in an office
Not the arts
As for our star, Miss Christine Daae...
No doubt she'll do her best
It's [bad word]  her voice is good
She knows, though
Should she wish to excel
She has much still to learn
If pride will let her return to me, her teacher
Her teacher...
