All right, we begin
Repeat after me
Singing on the syllable La
La la la la

Stand up straight
Breathe, relax

My poor Carlotta! Would you like a drink?
[Carlotta]
Yes. Something mixed with hemlock
[Cholet]
I'll get her a brandy
[Ledoux]
You know you're right. These reviews are definitely not good
[Cholet]
Joseph Buquet
[Carlotta]
My costume man
[Cholet]
She sent him down below
[Ledoux]
Well, someone has sent him back up
[Cholet]
Phantom!
The opera's been invaded by a phantom
[Ledoux]
The opera's been invaded by a phantom
[Cholet]
Phantom!
The opera's been invaded by a ghost
[Ledoux]
By a ghost
[Cholet]
By a ghost!
[Ledoux]
By a ghost!
[Cholet]
By a ghost!
If you follow him, you're following a phantom
[Ensemble]
A phantom
The opera's been invaded by a phantom
A phantom
The opera's been invaded by a phantom
A phantom
The opera's been invaded by a ghost
By a ghost, by a ghost
By a ghost, by a ghost
If you hurry and you're scurrying
Perhaps you should be worrying
That hurrying and scurrying
May lead you prematurely to your end
You may come across the Phantom
Search everywhere and find him
The opera's been invaded by a phantom
Search everywhere and find him
The opera's been invaded by a phantom
Search everywhere and find him
The opera's been invaded by a ghost
By a ghost, by a ghost
By a ghost, by a ghost
If you follow him
You're following a Phantom
Search everywhere and find him
The opera's been invaded by a phantom
Search everywhere and find him
The opera's been invaded by a ghost
By a ghost, by a ghost
By a ghost, by a ghost
He's a fiend, he's a ghoul
He will kill, he will rule
He will mangle, he'll entangle
He will strangle anyone
He doesn't care
Beware
The Phantom
Ah! Phantom
Ah! Phantom
Ah! Phantom
He wears a mask, a mask
A terrifying mask
He wears a mask
A terrifying mask
Phantom!
Search everywhere and find him
The opera's been invaded by a phantom
Search everywhere and find him
The opera's been invaded by a phantom
Search everywhere and find him
The opera's been invaded by a ghost
By a ghost, by a ghost
By a ghost, by a ghost
If you follow him
You're following a phantom
Search everywhere and find him
The opera's been invaded by a phantom
Search everywhere and find him
The opera's been invaded by a phantom
Search everywhere and find him
The opera's been invaded by a ghost
By a ghost, by a ghost
By a ghost, by a ghost
He's a fiend, he's a ghoul
He will kill, he will rule
He will mangle, he'll entangle
He will strangle anyone
He doesn't care
Beware
The Phantom!
All right, we begin
