rate meSong by Bat Boy: The Musical Cast<br /><br>
TOWNSFOLK: Adlibs and gestures. "Kill the freak!"<br>
<br>
BAT BOY: <br>
How could you tell me I was human, when you knew me to be a beast?<br>
<br>
MEREDITH: <br>
Look inside yourself, Edgar. You'll see a soul. <br>
Does a beast have a soul?<br>
<br>
BAT BOY: A soul? Is that what you call it,<br>
that empty pit, that wound where my heart should be?<br>
You dug this hole in me bit by bit, nothing is left of me!<br>
Give me one reason why I should live.<br>
See, you have no reply.<br>
The world is man or beast, but I am both or neither.<br>
So goodbye!<br>
<br>
SHERIFF: I'm sorry, Edgar, really am.<br>
Sorry to hear your life's a sham.<br>
Still, it doesn't have to end this way!<br>
So put these on and don't be cute.<br>
A van's en route from the institute.<br>
He gets in it, no one dies today.<br>
<br>
MOB: Sheriff, you idiot, why do you pity it?<br>
Look at the blood on him- why don't you kill him!<br>
What kinda man are you?<br>
What are you gonna do?<br>
We oughtta kill you too!<br>
Why don't you kill him!<br>
GET HIM! GET HIM!<br>
<br>
BAT BOY: Don't deny the obvious- such an ugly boy.<br>
Everywhere you put me, look what I destroy!<br>
<br>
MOB: Shoot him! Stop him! Jesus, Sheriff!<br>
Shoot him! Kill him! Kill him! Do it!<br>
<br>
BAT BOY: Not strung up by farmers or caged in by police.<br>
If you're not a coward, give me peace.<br>
<br>
MOB: Parker, you idiot, why do you pity it?<br>
Look at the blood on him- God, you're both evil!<br>
What kinda man are you?<br>
What are you gonna do?<br>
Parker, he wants you to!<br>
Kill him or we will!<br>
<br>
BAT BOY: Coward.<br>
<br>
DR. PARKER: I'm sorry.<br>
<br>
BAT BOY: You know...<br>
One thing alone saved me from despair,<br>
back in my feral stage.<br>
<br>
SHELLEY: Edgar...<br>
<br>
BAT BOY: Once in a while she would meet my stare.<br>
Then I'd forget the cage.<br>
<br>
MEREDITH: Edgar, don't!<br>
<br>
BAT BOY: But surely her smile wasn't meant for me.<br>
<br>
SHELLEY: Edgar no!<br>
<br>
BAT BOY: Easier to dismiss. But, tonight she kissed me, here.<br>
<br>
(General gasp)<br>
<br>
BAT BOY: Tonight she gave me this. (He takes out Shelley's handkerchief)<br>
I smell her perfume and her sweat...<br>
<br>
DR. PARKER: Oh my God...<br>
<br>
TOWNFOLK: Jesus!<br>
<br>
BAT BOY: Look what a gift she gave me-<br>
DR. PARKER: Is it true?<br>
BAT BOY: Almost enough to save me.<br>
SHELLEY: Yes!<br>
BAT BOY: And I imagine you're upset...<br>
DR. PARKER: Oh my God!<br>
BAT BOY: But I would kill for her again!<br>
<br>
MOB: Stop him! Kill him!<br>
<br>
BAT BOY: And do you know what she did then?<br>
MOB: Stop!<br>
BAT BOY: She offered me her vein.<br>
MOB: No!<br>
BAT BOY: She offered me her blood!<br>
MOB: God!<br>
BAT BOY: She offered me everything!<br>
<br>
(Dr. Parker puts a knife to Bat Boy's throat. Meredith stops him.)<br>
<br>
DR.PARKER: Meredith, I'm sorry. All of this is me.<br>
MEREDITH: Thomas, please.<br>
<br>
DR.PARKER: (overlapping) <br>
I can't bear to look at him. You are all I see. <br>
His eyes, Meredith, he has your eyes.<br>
It hurts too much to put behind me... the way I lost you.<br>
<br>
MEREDITH: (overlapping) <br>
Thomas, don't. <br>
Please, oh Thomas, don't deny the obvious, leave the past behind. <br>
We can start again, love. We have both been blind.<br>
<br>
CROWD: Parker, damn you... Parker, you do it now...<br>
MEREDITH: Thomas, I forgive you. I know, my love, I know.<br>
DR.PARKER: And every day his eyes remind me.<br>
<br>
CROWD: Now! Now! Now!<br>
<br>
MEREDITH: Thomas, come here. Thomas, let him go!<br>
<br>
DR.PARKER: Edgar! Are you hungry?<br>
<br>
(Bat Boy, wounded, falls to Shelley's arms)<br>
<br>
SHELLEY: Oh, Edgar! My dear, sweet boy...<br>
<br>
BAT BOY: I am not a boy. I am an animal. (He dies)<br>
