Delibes: Coppélia - Tableau 2: No. 9 Scène (L'atelier de Coppélius)

歌詞

This is my new puppet isn’t she nice No new invention but today she’s my prize Acting, singing, dancing just like the old one They last about five months they then are done She gives you what you need But it’s in your head I decide when she shines I decide when she’s dead Spellbinding pictures of her you can’t get away These pictures hide she has nothing to say For your happiness Coppelia is the key Don’t think too much just live the fantasy Yes, I do love her My money machine My servants keep her Fine, young and clean My little clone to be abused I am the raper, never stand accused I still have the last charming puppet in store A fair beauty, but I find she’s a bore Using their bodies and wringing them out This is what my business is all about My little clone to be abused I am the raper, never stand accused
