You're No Good - Betty Everett lyrics
The Mystery Of Edwin Drood Soundtrack
No Good Can Come From Bad
Neville Landless:
Sir I don't much like your tone,
That supercilious sneer you wear
True you wear a finer cut than mine
Ah, but a waistcoat worn can soon be torn
And faggots too till maggots feed on you
Rosa Budd:
Something in this speech seems ominous to me
Helena Landless:
Twin, don't over reach, pray promise this to me
Rev. Crisparkle:
Praise to Him divine, for this we should be glad
John Jasper:
Won't you try some wine?
All:
No good can come from bad!
Edwin Drood
Landless as you are and known
Your blood is hot, but less than pure
Less I'm sure you'd be
Your history would indicate the past
Of some half caste runs through your veins
your crudeness thus explains
Rosa Budd:
Something sends a chill like feet upon my grave
Helena Landless
Can my strength and will completely Neville save
Rev. Crisparkle:
Could these words they say bring harm upon the lad?
John Jasper:
Night must follow day
All:
No good can come from bad!
Neville and Drood:
Glances cut like blade through bone
With daggers drawn I glare at you
There at you who'd dare presume
To stare at whom I'd make my wife
And share my life
I'd see you dead before sweet Rosa wed!
Helena Landless:
Fate waits near
I feel it, I fear it
We are friends and yet
They'll not soon forget
Hearing Neville's therat
Every epithet
Rev. Crisparkle:
In younger days I hungered for another
Rosa'a mother!
After Rosa's birth, she left this earth
Now dust is all I'm worth
Rosa Budd:
So long a time
They've thought
That I'm a Dresden doll
Quite naive
But I can see these boys, this noise
More frightning than they might perceive.
All: sing their songs at same time
All:
With these new additions that have been revealed
Murderous admitions otherwise concealed
Neville and Drood:
Fie on you I curse, full warning you have had!
Helena and Rosa:
Bad must lead to worse!
All:
No good can come from bad
No good, no good can come from bad!
