歌词
Jo: Years from now, people will talk about us
One Christmas Eve,
Four penniless and ragged sister put on an operatic tragedy for all of Concord!
Meg, Beth: Oh, Jo, no!
Jo: Filled with blood and guts!
Two massacres, a masked ball and several heart wrenching scenes.
We'll dim the lights
The crowd will hush
We'll start the overture and Beth will surely blush.
And when Clarissa starts to plead,
Christmas will exceed our finest dreams.
Meg: Jo, do I die again in this one?
Jo: Yes.
Meg you will die
Like none before
The world will shudder when your body hits the floor!
For when Rodrigo makes you bleed
Christmas will exceed our finest dreams.
Now, Amy: as Clarissa
Only passion is permissible
This tragedy depends upon the fire in your eyes
And Beth: when you're the mother
You'll be noble, you'll be pure
All hearts will melt the moment mother cries
Let us begin!
Meg: Aha!
Beth:(cries)
Amy: Mother, dear mother, do not cry.
Jo: No, no, no, no, no, Amy. Expression! From the heart!
Mother! Oh no, dear mother! Do not cry!
Amy: Mother! Oh no, dear--
Jo, I am teased and ridiculed at school and all that concerns you is your silly little tragedy.
Jo: I know you're tired
I know it's hard
But we will triumph when Rodrigo yells, en garde!
Meg, Beth: Touche!
Jo: Our success is guaranteed!
Christmas will be thrilling;
Christmas will be gory!
Christmas will exceed our finest dreams.
I've made an important decision today.
As you all know, I've been write stories forever, with much satisfaction.
And people seem to like what I write.
Beth: We love it, Jo.
Jo: Absolutely! So I've decided, I'm going to become a world renowned writer.
I shall write great books and earn barrels of money and I'll give you all everything you've ever dreamed of!
Meg, Amy: Oh, Jo!
Beth: Jo can do anything!
Jo: But we must promise to remain just as we are.
Solid like a fortress.
No matter whatever happens,
We must promise that it will always be the four March sisers, forever.
All: Forever!
Jo: Come, let us rehearse.
Amy: Mother, dear mother, do not cry!
Beth: My daughter!
Meg: You will have me or no one!
Amy: No one!?
Jo: I've got my boots and hat (Meg, Beth, Amy: Before we're done, the crowd will roar)
My moustache is curled (We'll make their spirits soar!)
I'm making my entrance now (Our success is guaranteed!)
With curtains unfurled! (Christmas will be thrilling!)
I'll shall them all I'm no little woman (Yes, Christmas will exceed)
In a dress all buttoned and pearled (Our finest dreams)
I'm ready to take a bow (When sweet Clarissa beams)
I've taken a solemn vow (When brave Rodrigo screams)
With all that I am somehow (When the evil villian's glassy eyeball gleams)
Jo: My dearest Ma'ma, there will be Christmas after all!
Amy: Christmas!
Beth: Christmas!
Meg:Christmas!
Jo: Christmas!
All: Will exceed our finest dreams!
