Glad Rags to Riches

Nell:
Why doesn't my sweetheart come and save me from this vile place?

Director:
Your dance was terrible!

Nell:
I cannot go on, I'm so tired of it all! Please let me go.

Director:
I will hold you here! Until you decide to marry me...

Nell:
No, no! A thousand times no- you diaper viper!

Director:
So you spurn my offer of riches and fame! Then you'll stay right here and pay and pay and pay!

Elmer:
Excuse me, officer, I'm looking for my sweetheart from down on the farm.

Nell:
Elmer!

Elmer:
Nell!

Nell:
Sh, I cannot talk here. He is watching. Come on with me.

Elmer:
Alas! That I should find you in a pit of inequity.

Nell:
I'm in his power. Please save me.

Elmer:
Okay, Nell.

Director:
Where is that man?

Nell:
There's no one here.

Director:
I love my wife, but oh, you tempt!

Nell:
[singing] 'Tis sad when you think of her wasted life, for youth cannot mate with age. / Her beauty was sold, for an old man's gold. She's a bird in a guilded cage.

Nell:
Unhand me, you!

Elmer:
Darling, let us put the past behind us and start our lives anew.
