Children and Art / Stay with Me

Stephen Sondheim

WITCH
What did I clearly say?
Children must listen

RAPUNZEL, spoken
No, no, please!

WITCH
What were you not to do?
Children must see

RAPUNZEL, spoken
No!

WITCH
And learn
Why could you not obey?
Children should listen
What have I been to you
What would you have me be?
Handsome like a prince?

Ah, but I am old
I am ugly
I embarrass you
You are ashamed of me

RAPUNZEL, spoken
No!

WITCH
You are ashamed
You don't understand

Don't you know what's out there in the world?
Someone has to shield you from the world
Stay with me

Princes wait there in the world, it's true
Princes, yes, but wolves and humans, too
Stay at home
I am home

Who out there could love you more than I?
What out there that I cannot supply?
Stay with me

Stay with me
The world is dark and wild
Stay a child while you can be a child
With me
