Prisoners Of Love (Leo & Max) Text

---

JUDGE:
Gentlemen, it breaks my heart to break up such a beautiful friendship.
So I won't. Five years in the state penitentiary at Sing Sing.
CONVICT #1:
Gotta sing ... sing!
CONVICT #2:
Gotta sing ... sing!
MAX:
Okay, boys, break's over. Let's take it from the top.
CONVICT #1:
This is good! Hey Bloom, put me in for ten grand.
MAX & CONVICTS:
Prisoners of love
Blue skies above
Can't keep our hearts in jail
MAX:
Tempo, fellas!
Pick up the tempo!
MAX & CONVICTS:
Prisoners of love
Our turtle doves
LEO:
Don't forget the balcony!
MAX & CONVICTS:
Soon coming 'round with bail
LEO:
Sing out, boys! Let 'em hear you in solitary!
MAX & CONVICTS:
Oh, you can lock us up
And lose the key
But hearts in love
Are always free!
Prisoners of love
Blue skies above
'Cause we're still prisoners
MAX:
Take it home, boys. We open in Leavenworth Saturday night.
MAX & CONVICTS:
We're still prisoners
We're still prisoners of love
PRISON GUARD:
Hey, Bialystock, Bloom, Liebkind, good news! This just came from the governor:
"Gentlemen, you are hereby granted a full pardon for having -
through song and dance - brought joy and laughter into the hearts of
every murderer, rapist and sex maniac in Sing Sing."
You're free!
LEO:
Free!
MAX:
Next stop, Broadway!
MAX & CONVICTS:
But hearts in love are always free!
ULLA & GIRL PRISONERS:
Prisoners of love
Blue skies above
Can't keep our hearts in jail!
ROGER:
Can't keep our hearts in jail!
ULLA & GIRL PRISONERS:
Prisoners of love
Our turtle doves
ROGER:
Soon coming 'round with bail
ULLA & GIRL PRISONERS:
Tote that bale!
MALE PRISONERS:
You can lock us up
and lose the key
ALL:
But hearts in love are always free!
ROGER, ULLA & ALL PRISONERS:
Prisoners of love
Blue skies above
'Cause we're still prisoners...
We're still prisoners...
We're still prisoners of love!
Love!
Love!
Love!
Love!
Love!
Love!
Love!
Love!
Love!
Love!
Love!
Love!
LEO & MAX:
Leo and Max
Up off our backs
Back on the Great White Way!
Leo and Max
Back on our tracks
We're back on top to stay!
So when we take your money, never fear
We'll knock Broadway right on its ear
The cast is great
The script is swell
But this we're tellin' you, sirs
It's just no go, you got no show
Without the producers!
We'll never quit
Hit after hit
You and me-o
We guarantee-o
You're lookin' at Leo
And Max!!
ENTIRE ENSEMBLE:
The producers, Leo and Max!
