​This Place Is Mine
Carlotta:
Where does the time fly? Simply to few hours in a day. Oh, a Diva's work is never done. No release, No time for fun. Not if a Diva has to run, An Opera Company. Every small detail to supervise Every pretty face to scrutinize I plan beneath these eyes This opera company Why take on this arduous chore Sleepless nights I pace across my bedroom floor Why do I live completely for This opera company Cause it's... Mine from the stalls To the portraits on the wall From the balconies and loges far and near It belongs all to me Every item that you see From the cellars to the crystal chandelier From the floating marble grand facade To the elevated promenade From every toilet bowl To every leading role This place is mine I will sing I will glow I will never let it go I will hold it ever captive in my hand Like a god Like a queen I will enter every scene And control it like the kingdom I command And I pity any baritone Who attempts to tread this stage I own With no polite request He's here at my behest Cause it's all mine My curtain and my canopy My song My key My chart My grand romantic destiny From here my life will start I'll be out on the stage Looking great And half my age Every chance I get I'll get them on their feet I will burn I will scheme I will realize my dream For if I'm not in the light I'm incomplete And the best part I'm just coming to How they'll all applaud for You know who I can't believe I'm here And this is my career It must be Seen like a torch We'll engrave it on the porch Like an edict Like a beacon Like a sign This place is mine!
