Man of La Mancha (Music from the Musical Play)
"Why Do You Do These Things?"
Why do you do these things?
What things?
These ridiculous...
the things you do!
I hope to add some measure of grace to the world.
The world's a dung heap and we are maggots that crawl on it.
My lady knows better in her heart.
Haha!
What's in my heart will get me half way to Hell.
And you, Senor Don Quixote, you're going to take such a beating!
Whether I win or lose, does not matter.
What does?
Only that I follow the quest. *spits* That for your quest!
Well, what does that mean? ...
