Hellfire
Confiteor Deo omnipotenti
Beatae Mariae semper Virgini
Beato Michaeli Archangelo
Sanctis spostolis omnibus sanctis
Beata Maria, you know I am a righteous man
And of my virtue I am justly proud
Beata Maria, you know I'm so much purer than
The common, vulgar, weak, licentious crowd
Then tell me, Maria
Why I see her dancing there?
Why her smoldering eyes still scorch my soul?
I feel her, I see her
The sun caught in her raven hair
Is blazing in me out of all control
Like fire, hellfire
This fire in my skin
This burning desire
Is turning me to sin
It's not my fault (mea culpa)
I'm not to blame (mea culpa)
It is the gypsy girl, the witch who sent this flame
(Mea maxima culpa)
It's not my fault (mea culpa)
If in God's plan (mea culpa)
He made the devil so much stronger than a man
Protect me, Maria
Don't let this siren cast her spell
Don't let her fire sear my flesh and bone
Destroy Esmeralda
And let her taste the fires of Hell
Or else let her be mine and mine alone
Mistress Frollo, the gypsy has escaped
What?!
She's nowhere in Cathedral, she's gone
But how?! Never mind
Get out, you idiot!
I'll find her
I'll find her if I have to burn down all of Paris!
Hellfire, dark fire
Now gypsy, it's your turn
Choose me or your pyre
Be mine or you will burn
God have mercy on her
(Kyrie eleison) God have mercy on me
(Kyrie eleison) but she will be mine or she will burn
