george abud & original cast of lempicka - perfection lyrics
[marinetti, spoken]
we fought a war that broke the world in two
the world has irrevocably changed
[male student 1, spoken]
yes
[male student 2, spoken]
yes
[male student 3, spoken]
yes
[marinetti]
(spoken)
we can’t go back
(sung)
our innocence is gone
we are sober broken creatures
and we need art that speaks where we live now
with the knowledge of the knife’s edge
(spoken)
but look at this
trees! the river! and… trees!
(sung)
a streetlamp glowing down on wet cobblestones
how very parisian!
it would make some bourgeois housewife happy
when she hangs it behind her couch
(spoken)
and speaking of couch…
ah, here we go!
a nude reclining
why do we ever need to see another godd_mn naked woman?!
there’s new beauty in the world today:
the beauty of speed and power racing towards a glorious future!
(sung)
this is the age of the machine
man now can dream of perfection
[male students]
ooohh
[marinetti]
with speed and steel
flames spitting [?]
engine and automobile
achieve perfection
[male students]
oooh
[marinetti]
destroy the past
destroy convention
everything that hinders our ascension
to perfection
[male students]
speed, the speed, the machine
[marinetti, spoke_sung]
no more paintings of ballerinas
no more paintings of sad musicians
no more paintings of naked women
or bowls of f_cking fruit
all must be smashed
rules are meant to be broken
glorious destruction pave the way for truth
imperfections left behind
sleek and powerful can stay
[male student 4, spoken]
it’s brutal!
[marinetti, spoken]
no, it’s kind
[male students]
straight and perfection lead the way
[marinetti]
weakness is not kindness
weakness is a mess
[male students, spoken]
yes!
[baroness, spoken]
but what is imperfect?
who decides?
[marinetti, spoke_sung]
ah, baroness, you’re looking lovely
dressed as always to a tee
you’ve a soft heart
it’s part of your charm
[baroness, spoken]
who decides?
[marinetti, spoke_sung]
him, him, him, and me!
we must decide there isn’t room for everyone
it’s about expedience
europe will be overrun with imbeciles, criminals
and deviants
[female student, spoken]
…deviants?
[baroness, spoken]
come now marinetti, i disagree
isn’t perfection the enemy?
true beauty lies in humanity
imperfections and all
[marinetti, spoke_sung]
sentimental woman
next you’ll tell me
“beauty is truth and truth is beauty”
when you and i both know
truth is often… ugly
[marinetti laughs in the background as the male students sing]
in this new age of the machine
man now can dream of perfection
oooh
[marinetti, male students]
with speed and steel
flames spitting [?]
engine and automobile
achieve perfection (achieve perfection)
(oooh)
destroy the past (the speed, the machine)
destroy convention
everything that hinders our ascension
in this new age of the machine
man now can dream of perfection
(oooh)
[marinetti, spoke_sung]
beauty, speed, the machine
the future is barrelling down on us
feel the rush
to the beauty of speed, the machine
the future’s careening like a drunk end thing [?]
hear it sing
feel the rush of the wind
while the piston is pushed
hear the whoosh of the engines that pass your body
see the sky filling up
with machines
each silver plane, a bird on the wind
the future’s a polished [?] with a glorious thing!
can you feel it?
this spinnet, the future is here!
it’s tomorrow now!
