Look in Your Heart (Reprise)
(spoken)
Sheriff, will you leave us two alone?
Huh? Sure
Sister Mary Jo, I applaud the strong emotion
Coursing through your plea
It has the most profound effect on me
Therefore, I will grant you your petition to free your brother
Under one condition:
You must serve my passion for one night.
You want me to cook for you?
Not quite
This appetite of mine craves more than food.
Perhaps your birds may extricate my mood
Have you never felt the stir of emotion
Threatening your self control?
Have you never felt the strength of temptation
Battling with angels for your soul?
I'm still not sure...
How much clearer can I be?
Your brother's freedom for your chastity!
My what?!
Your chastity!
You can't be serious.
Oh, but I am.
You're patently delirious!
People like you, Governor, are why I turned my back upon this world.
Goodbye.
Ay, Governor, whatever have you done?
That you claim to be the champion of law and order can prove so unjust
When your righteousness is overmatched by lust.
Those without sin
May cast a stone
But flesh and blood will know their own
Before you rush to blame
Would you not act the same?
Look in your heart
Sheriff, will you leave us two alone?
Huh? Sure
Sister Mary Jo, I applaud the strong emotion
Coursing through your plea
It has the most profound effect on me
Therefore, I will grant you your petition to free your brother
Under one condition:
You must serve my passion for one night.
You want me to cook for you?
Not quite
This appetite of mine craves more than food.
Perhaps your birds may extricate my mood
Have you never felt the stir of emotion
Threatening your self control?
Have you never felt the strength of temptation
Battling with angels for your soul?
I'm still not sure...
How much clearer can I be?
Your brother's freedom for your chastity!
My what?!
Your chastity!
You can't be serious.
Oh, but I am.
You're patently delirious!

That you claim to be the champion of law and order can prove so unjust
When your righteousness is overmatched by lust.
Those without sin
May cast a stone
But flesh and blood will know their own
Before you rush to blame
Would you not act the same?
Look in your heart
