Moulin Rouge! the Musical - Sympathy For The Duke Lyrics

"Sympathy For The Duke" is a song from Moulin Rouge! the musical performed by Tam Mutu (The Duke of Monroth), Karen Olivo (Satine), and Company.

THE DUKE:
Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around?for?a long long?years
Stole many a girl's soul to?waste
Please to meet you hope you guessed my name
But whats puzzling you is the nature of my game

Well I saw you today at the reception
A glass of wine in your hand

SATINE:
I knew I would meet my connection

THE DUKE:
Well at your feet is this footloose man
But you can't always get what you want

SATINE:
No you can't always get what you want

BOTH:
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
Well you just might find you get what you need

THE DUKE:
Let me please introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
And I lay traps for troubadours
Who get killed if they cut your ways

So if you need me
Have some courtesy
Have some sympathy and some taste
Use all you're well-learned politesse
Or I'll lay your soul to waste

THE DUKE & MEN:
Love sister
Its just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away

THE DUKE, MEN & SATINE:
Love Sister Love
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
Love Sister Pleased to meet you (2X)
It's just a kiss away It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away

THE DUKE:
Hey
Baby whats my name?
