The Mystery Of Edwin Drood (The 2013 New Broadway Cast Recording)
Puffer's Confession (feat. Chita Rivera)
May God have mercy
Your forgiveness do I need
My string of sins ends here
With this most dreadful deed
I only meant to save my Rosa Bud, it's true
You bastard Jasper! Damn
I meant to murder you!
Could I see my Rosa Bud threatened
By this man of massive sin?
He revealed his vile desires
So I had to do him in
To my endless ruination
I took smoke to see me through
In my sweet hallucination
I saw Drood, and thought him you
So I say to all who hear me
You must plan the murder well
You must see your victim clearly
As you send him off to hell
When I killed, 'twas well intended
Drink and smoke's what did me in
For my chores, I'm apprehended
Them's the wages of sin
Everyone now!
With the wages of sin
Oh, don't you know they hang women these days?
This is undoubtedly my last chorus
Come on now!
Everybody!
With the wages of sin
God bless ya
Bless ya! Tata!
Your forgiveness do I need
My string of sins ends here
With this most dreadful deed
I only meant to save my Rosa Bud, it's true
You bastard Jasper! Damn
I meant to murder you!
Could I see my Rosa Bud threatened
By this man of massive sin?
He revealed his vile desires
So I had to do him in
To my endless ruination
I took smoke to see me through
In my sweet hallucination
I saw Drood, and thought him you
So I say to all who hear me
You must plan the murder well
You must see your victim clearly
As you send him off to hell
When I killed, 'twas well intended
Drink and smoke's what did me in
For my chores, I'm apprehended
Them's the wages of sin
Everyone now!
With the wages of sin
Oh, don't you know they hang women these days?
This is undoubtedly my last chorus
Come on now!
Everybody!
With the wages of sin
God bless ya
Bless ya! Tata!
