Xanadu Cast - Evil Woman
Melpomene: Apparently, there is no success nor joy for you nor I.
And now, Clio is to be granted Xanadu!
Would that I were a god, I would smite her.
Calliope: Ooo, sister, sister! You are such a . . .

Rolled in from another town
Hit some gold, too hot to settle down
But a fool and his money soon go separate ways
And you found a fool lyin' in a daze
Both:
Ha, ha
Melpomene:
Woman
What you gonna do
You destroyed all the virtues that the Lord gave you
It's so good that you're feelin' pain
But you better get your face on board the very next train
Both:
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Evil woman, evil woman
Melpomene:
Evil woman, hey
Calliope:
You're an evil woman
Melpomene:

I know what lets do!
Calliope: What lets?
Melpomene: What lets use our muse powers and place a curse upon our sister.
That she falls in love with this mortal!
Both:
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Calliope: What a glorious prank. We shall do the curse, she shall be in love!
And by Zeus' decree . . . Be put to death!
Both:
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Melpomene: Oh, come my daughter Sirens.
Come join your mother and aunt in mean-spirited melody!
Sirens:
You're an evil woman.
Calliope:
Evil woman how you done me wrong
But now you're trying to wail a different song
Both:
Ha, ha
Calliope:
Ah, funny how you broke me up
You made the wine now you drink a cup
I came a-runnin' every time you cried
I thought I saw love smilin' in your eyes
Ha, ha very nice to know
That you ain't got no place left to go
All:
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Sirens:
Evil woman
Melpomene:
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Sirens:

Xanadu Cast - Suddenly
If only there were a book. A magic book!
That listed all the locations in Los Angeles and had their phone numbers next to it.
Sonny: Yeah!
Kira: And if that book had pages the color of amber!
Sonny: I know! I'll look it up in the phone book!
Kira: My god! You're brilliant!
Sonny: It's ringing!
She walks in, I'm suddenly a hero
I'm taken in, my hopes begin to rise
Kira:
Look at me, can't you tell I'd be so
Thrilled to see the message in your eyes
Sonny:
You make it seem I'm so close to my dream
And then suddenly it's all there
Kira:
Suddenly--
Both:
The wheels are in motion
And I, I'm ready to sail any ocean
Suddenly I don't need the answers
'Cos I, I'm ready to take all my chances with you
Sonny:
Oh, hi. My name is Sonny Malone and
I'd like to rent this large auditorium for an event I'm planning.
Yeah, I can be there in five minutes. Where are you? Got it.
Ok, so take Melrose, uh-huh, past La Cienega. Uh-huh, then past La Brea
. . .
And how can I feel you're all that matters
I'd rely on anything you say
Kira:
I'll take care that no illusions shatter
If you dare to say what you should say
Sonny:
You make it seem I'm so close to my dream
And then suddenly it's all there
Kira:
Suddenly--
Both:
The wheels are in motion
And I, I'm ready to sail any ocean
Suddenly I don't need the answers
'Cos I, I'm ready to take all my chances with you
Sonny: Kira, let's go talk to the landlord of this place.
He has an office in Downtown, L.A.
Kira: Downtown, L.A.?
Sonny: Don't worry!
You make me feel so invincible I feel like I could go into Downtown, L.A. without a weapon!
Why do I feel so alive when you're near,
There's no way any hurt can get
Both:
Longing to spend
Every moment of the day with you--
With you
Kira:
Suddenly--
Both:
The wheels are in motion
And I, I'm ready to sail any ocean
Suddenly I don't need the answers

I have to warn you I'm never gonna set you free
'Cause I was born to love you for eternity
Whenever you're away from me

Xanadu Cast - The Fall
If only there were a book. A magic book!
That listed all the locations in Los Angeles and had their phone numbers next to it.
Sonny: Yeah!
Kira: And if that book had pages the color of amber!
Sonny: I know! I'll look it up in the phone book!
Kira: My god! You're brilliant!
Sonny: It's ringing!
She walks in, I'm suddenly a hero
I'm taken in, my hopes begin to rise
Kira:
Look at me, can't you tell I'd be so
Thrilled to see the message in your eyes
Sonny:
You make it seem I'm so close to my dream
And then suddenly it's all there
Kira:
Suddenly--
Both:
The wheels are in motion
And I, I'm ready to sail any ocean
Suddenly I don't need the answers
'Cos I, I'm ready to take all my chances with you
Sonny:
Oh, hi. My name is Sonny Malone and
I'd like to rent this large auditorium for an event I'm planning.
Yeah, I can be there in five minutes. Where are you? Got it.
Ok, so take Melrose, uh-huh, past La Cienega. Uh-huh, then past La Brea
. . .
And how can I feel you're all that matters
I'd rely on anything you say
Kira:
I'll take care that no illusions shatter
If you dare to say what you should say
Sonny:
You make it seem I'm so close to my dream
And then suddenly it's all there
Kira:
Suddenly--
Both:
The wheels are in motion
And I, I'm ready to sail any ocean
Suddenly I don't need the answers
'Cos I, I'm ready to take all my chances with you
Sonny: Kira, let's go talk to the landlord of this place.
He has an office in Downtown, L.A.
Kira: Downtown, L.A.?
Sonny: Don't worry!
You make me feel so invincible I feel like I could go into Downtown, L.A. without a weapon!
Why do I feel so alive when you're near,
There's no way any hurt can get
Both:
Longing to spend
Every moment of the day with you--
With you
Kira:
Suddenly--
Both:
The wheels are in motion
And I, I'm ready to sail any ocean
Suddenly I don't need the answers
'Cos I, I'm ready to take all my chances with you
You!

Xanadu Cast - Suspended in Time
A child and a fool in one
So sure I could need no one
My heart always on the run to nowhere
Now as you're holding me
My heart is reminding me
That now I could never be without you
But how can our love succeed
A miracle is what we need
And so I appeal to you
To keep me suspended in time with you
Don't let this moment die
I get a feeling when I'm with you
None of the rules apply
But I know for certain
Goodbye is a crime
So love if you need me
Suspend me in time
Wasted the time away
Holding our love at bay
Now I can't last a day without you
Your smile is a thrill to see
Eyes hold me tenderly
They'll shine in my memory forever
But how can our love succeed
A miracle is what we need
And so I appeal to you
To keep me suspended in time with you
Don't let this moment die
I get a feeling when I'm with you
None of the rules apply
But I know for certain
Goodbye is a crime
So love if you need me
Suspend me in time
In time
So sure I could need no one
My heart always on the run to nowhere
Now as you're holding me
My heart is reminding me
That now I could never be without you
But how can our love succeed
A miracle is what we need
And so I appeal to you
To keep me suspended in time with you
Don't let this moment die
I get a feeling when I'm with you
None of the rules apply
But I know for certain
Goodbye is a crime
So love if you need me
Suspend me in time
Wasted the time away
Holding our love at bay
Now I can't last a day without you
Your smile is a thrill to see
Eyes hold me tenderly
They'll shine in my memory forever
But how can our love succeed
A miracle is what we need
And so I appeal to you
To keep me suspended in time with you
Don't let this moment die
I get a feeling when I'm with you
None of the rules apply
But I know for certain
Goodbye is a crime
So love if you need me
Suspend me in time
In time

Xanadu Cast - Have You Never Been Mellow?
There was a time when I was in a hurry as you are
I was like you
There was a day when I just had to tell my point of view
I was like you
Now I don't mean to make you frown
No, I just want you to slow down
Have you never been mellow?
Have you never tried to find a comfort from inside you?
Have you never been happy just to hear your song?
Have you never let someone else be strong?
Running around as you do with your head up in the clouds
I was like you
Never had time to lay back, kick your shoes off, close your eyes
I was like you
Now you're not hard to understand
You need someone to hold your hand
Have you never been mellow?
Have you never tried to find a comfort from inside you?
Have you never been happy just to hear your song?
Have you never let someone else be strong?
I was like you
There was a day when I just had to tell my point of view
I was like you
Now I don't mean to make you frown
No, I just want you to slow down
Have you never been mellow?
Have you never tried to find a comfort from inside you?
Have you never been happy just to hear your song?
Have you never let someone else be strong?
Running around as you do with your head up in the clouds
I was like you
Never had time to lay back, kick your shoes off, close your eyes
I was like you
Now you're not hard to understand
You need someone to hold your hand
Have you never been mellow?
Have you never tried to find a comfort from inside you?
Have you never been happy just to hear your song?
Have you never let someone else be strong?
