What’s This I Find? Lyrics
Thuy
You're here. It's true
It is as I was told
This man and you
For how much were you sold?
Our vows! Our name!
You squander then on swine
And worse - This shame
Before your family's shrine
Chris
This girl is mine
Thuy
Yours?
Chris
Now
Thuy
What!
Together
Who are you?
Kim
STOP!
Thuy
What's this I find
You have joined with the blind
And do none of you see what's ahead?
What's this I find?
I see losers and whores
Who will soon be gone or be dead
Chris
Get out!
Kim
You have no right to be here
I'm not a prize you can claim
We were promised at thirteen
The woman I've become
Is not the same
Thuy
That promise made by your father
I will claim when we win
To break a a vow of your parents
Is worse than a sin
Kim
My parents got themselves killed
In the week you changed side
If there were promises
All of them dies when they died
(CHRIS and THUY pull guns. The girls scream)
Gigi
He's got a gun!
(GIGI and the GIRLS leave quickly)
Thuy
Kim, leave this man behind
Kim
Go on!
And Shoot!
I will not change my mind
Thuy
Your are still mine!
Kim
Not anymore!
Thuy
You're mine until we die!
Chris
Get out of here!
Thuy
Saigon will fall
And so will your G.I
Chris
She'll leave with me!
Thuy
You broke your father's word
This is your curse!
(THUY runs out and down the stairs. CHRIS runs out after him, but he's gone)
