Voice:
But why, Lucheni, did you kill the Empress Elizabeth? Answer Lucheni, why?
Lucheni:
Why, night after night the same question? For 100 years, what means all this
questioning? Murder. I am dead. The hideous assassination of the Empress of
Austria.
Voice:
Tell at last what was behind it!!!
Lucheni:
I killed her because...she wanted it!!!!
Voice:
Don't talk nonsense.
Lucheni:
She wanted it! There are honourable witnesses to testify for it!
Voice:
What witnesses would that be?
Lucheni:
Contemporaries of her my dear sir! They can't find peace and still talk
about....ELISABETH!!!
Chorus:
The old world has Gone down and dust goes to dust,
but we still dance the dance of death
lust, grief (or suffering) duty, which suffocates us
Dream, h..... ? That's all that's left.
Sisi's Parents:
We meant well with Sisi
The child was so sensitive
She did expect too much from life
Our little daughter
Her Husband (Franz Joseph):
Her life was difficult
we were too much alike
she felt misunderstood.
Voice:
For the last time Lucheni! Who was pulling the strings behind you?
Lucheni:
Death, Only Death!
Voice:
The motive Lucheni!!!!
Lucheni:
Love. UNA GRANDE AMOREEE!!!
Chorus and Lucheni:
Elisabeth |
