Entertain Me

(album: The Unofficial Bridgerton Musical - 2021)

[Queen Charlotte]
I have everything I need
But nothing that I want
That's not good enough
Is that the best you've got?
Bring me mimes and fire eaters
And trapezes from the ceiling
And if you tell a joke
And I'm still not amused, you're through

[Court]
Your Majesty!

[Court Member 1]
Look here!

[Court Member 2]
Look here!

[Court Member 1]
I can make a rabbit disappear

[Court Member 2]
I can balance on a sphere

[Court Member 3]
I can put my legs behind my head

[Queen Charlotte]
Do that again and you'll be dead
All the rest of you
Bite your tongue, hold your breath
'Cause I'm the most valuable guest

Entertain!
Entertain!
That was good
Wasn't great
Entertain!
Entertain!
Where's my snuff?
Where's my fluff?

[Servant]
Your Majesty, it's right there on the tray

[Queen Charlotte]
Oh... You!
Bring me my silver spoon
And while you're at it, prepare a goose
And tell the baker that the Queen wants pudding too
Why do you look confused?
Chop-chop!

[Servant]
Your Majesty

[Queen Charlotte]
What?!

[Servant]
It's the King

[Queen Charlotte]
Is he dead?

[Servant]
Lucid, ma'am

[Queen Charlotte]
Oh... Bring me to him
Your Majesty

[King George]
No need for the formalities, Lottie. Come! Sit with me. How is little George?

[Queen Charlotte]
He's not so little anymore. Your people miss you, my dear. I miss you

[King George]
I'm right here, Lottie

[Queen Charlotte]
I miss the blue bells
They're in full bloom
Walking hand in hand

[King George]
I remember when you said we're dancing on the clouds
Strolling through the grounds
Talk and talk for hours

[Queen Charlotte]
We were dancing

[King George]
Through the flowers

[King George]
Oh! I— I forgot to ask. How is dear Amelia?

[Queen Charlotte]
George, Amelia was ill. Several years ago

[King George]
She came to my room but a fortnight ago. Did you not see her?

[Queen Charlotte]
George... Amelia is dead!

[King George]
Have have you done something? What have you done?
No, you come back here! Someone get her!
This woman killed my child!

[Queen Charlotte]
Entertain!
Entertain!
Bring me all my vices
Something that will take away the pain

Entertain!
I'm dismayed
I'm not crazy, but my sanity is circling the drain

[Choir]
She's not living, just surviving
Unforgiving, her sanity is circling the drain

[Queen Charlotte]
Not living, just surviving
No one's listening
Watching as I slowly go insane
Entertain me!
Entertain me!

[Servant]
Your Majesty

[Queen Charlotte]
What?!

[Servant]
It's the latest Whistledown

[Queen Charlotte]
Hm... That will do!
