Raoul:

Miss Giry, I'm not afraid of him.

I've bested him before and if he ever had the courage

To meet me face to face, man to

Man...

No, no it can't be.



Phantom:

Not afraid of me, you say?



Raoul:

Stay back or I'll kill you, I promise you!



Phantom:

Of course. As you say, you've beaten me before,

But that was a long time ago, Vicomte. And we were playing a different

Game.



Look at you, deep in debt

Stinking drunk - pitiful

Shall we two make a bet?

Devil take he hindmost



Raoul:

Look at you, foul as sin

Hideous - horrible

Call the stakes, deal me in

Devil take the hindmost



Phantom:

Our Christine shall choose tonight



Raoul:

Let her choose



Phantom:

Is she yours or mine?



Raoul:

Draw the line



Phantom:

If she sings you lose tonight



Raoul:

I won't lose



Phantom:

You leave from here



Raoul:

Fine!



Phantom:

Disappear



Raoul:

Fine! And if she won't, if I win



Phantom:

All your debts wiped away



Raoul:

Very well, let's begin



Both:

Devil take the hindmost



(simultaneously)



Raoul:

You think you have the odds

You think you're in control

You think you've fixed the dice

Well I will gladly roll

I'll bet against the house

I'll even double down



Phantom:

Our game, it's been changed

Every throw risking her

All the rules rearranged

Fate has redesigned those



Raoul:

Fortune's on my side

I won her long ago, I won her from you then

I beat you even now, I'll win her back again



Phantom:

Cut the deck, let us play

Roll your die once again



Raoul:

And when the game is done!



Phantom:

Either way!



Both:

Devil take the hindmost

Now Christine shall choose at last

Is she yours or mine?



Raoul:

We've a son - our bond's secure



Phantom:

Are you sure?



Raoul:

What?



Phantom:

Are you so sure?



Raoul:

What do you mean?



Phantom:

Such a child, strange to see

Different, musical



Raoul:

Huh?



Phantom:

Is he more you or me?

Which one do you find most?



Raoul:

You lie.



(simultaneously)



Phantom:

Deal the cards, let them fall

Choose your hand, try your best

He who wins, wins it all



Raoul:

I call your bluff - the game is on

And we will see who wins

He who runs it out wins it all



Both:

Devil take he hindmost



Phantom:

Deal the cards, let them fall

Choose your hand, try your best

He who wins wins it all



Raoul:

I call your bluff - the game is on

And we will see who wins out

He who runs it out wins it all



Both:

Devil take the hindmost!



Phantom:

She walks, you leave together

Pockets full

Debts paid.

She sings - you leave alone.

Devil take the hindmost.



Raoul:

Oh, God. What have I done? Look at me - the concert's only hours away.
