Segue (II) Lyrics

Hello.
Vanessa?
I'm not recording this time.
So how are you?
How are u?
Fine.
Fine.
Excuse me, but ah, what's up with your voice?
It's a special phone, a tone box
A tongue box. Oh, l-like in the movie Barbarella.
Yeah. Gives me courage, u know
Like a veil I can hide behind
It talks at, around, through her
Ok, so why are you giving me an interview
Because I want u...
Pardon me?
To tell the truth
Oh - well, I will if you will.
For example, the first song of your opera
Ah, the opera
Why don't you tell me your real name.
My name is Victor
That is not the truth and you know it.
How old are you?
I'm into my 5th soul now so that makes me three hundred...
Why do you pretend to be a maze?
... and twenty. I'm amazed at your beauty.
I saw you on television.
320 hmm, don't sweat it honey, I'm too young for you.
Although rumor has it that the crown princess of Cairo
is now a member of the NPG.
Are you there?
Ahem...
Do you know that the princess is 16 years old?
How 'bout this for a story. 320 year old robs the cradle
What a scandal.
Scandal...
You know, if you don't give me the real story,
I'll have to make one up of my own.
So why don't you tell me the truth - the truth - the truth
Why don't you tell me the truth?
