Prima Donna (Film Version) Lyrics

[ANDRE]
Your public needs you

[FIRMIN]
We need you too

[CARLOTTA]
Wouldn't you rather have your precious little ingénue?

[ANDRE & FIRMIN]
Signora, no! The world wants you

Prima Donna, first lady of the stage
Your devotees are on their knees to implore you

[ANDRE]
Can you bow out when they're shouting your name?

[FIRMIN]
Think of how they all adore you

[ANDRE & FIRMIN]
Prima Donna, enchant us once again

[ANDRE]
Think of your muse

[FIRMIN]
And of the queues 'round the theatre!

[ANDRE, FIRMIN & PIANGI]
Can you deny us the triumph in store?

[ANDRE, FIRMIN
& PIANGI]
Sing, Prima Donna, once more

Think of your public

Those who hear you liken you to an angel

[ANDRE]
We get our Opera

[ANDRE & FIRMIN]
Leading ladies are a trial

Tears...
Oaths...
Lunatic demands are regular occurrences

Surely there'll be further scenes—
Worse than this!

[CARLOTTA]
Prima Donna
Your song shall live again
You took a snub
But there's a public who needs you

Think of the cry of undying support

Follow
​where the
​limelight
​leads you

Prima Donna
Your song shall never die

You'll sing again
And to unending ovation

Think how you'll shine in that final encore

Sing Prima Donna once more

[RAOUL]
Christine spoke of an angel

[MME GIRY]
She has heard the voice of the Angel of Music

[FIRMIN]
She gets her limelight

[PIANGI]
When she sings, we see heaven

[RAOUL]
Orders! Warnings!
Lunatic demands!

I must see these demands are rejected!

[ANDRE & FIRMIN]
Who'd believe a diva
Happy to relieve a
Chorus girl whose gone
And slept with the patron?
Raoul and the soubrette,​
Entwined in love's duet!
Although he may demur
He must have been with her!
You'd never get away
With all this in a play
But if it's loudly sung
And in a foreign tongue
It's just the sort of story
Audiences adore
In fact, a perfect opera!

[CARLOTTA]
O!
[?]
Fortunata!
Non ancor
Abbandonata

[MEG & GIRY]
For if his curse
​is on this Opera...
[ALL]
Prima Donna the world is at your feet
A nation waits, and how it hates to be cheated!
Light up the stage with that age-old rapport
Sing Prima Donna
Once more!
