Greatest lines from King Lear

edited 2015-03-30 21:50:31 in General
1. Cordelia: Let's dance in style, let's dance for a while/Heaven can wait, we're only watching the skies

2: The Fool: Praising our leaders, we're getting in tune/The music's played by the the mad men

3: Lear: So many adventures couldn't happen today/So many songs we forgot to playSo many dreams swinging out of the blue/We let them come true

4: Edmund: Youth's like diamonds in the sun/And diamonds are forever

5: Goneril: Some are like water, some are like the heat/Some are a melody and some are the beat/Sooner or later, they all will be gone/Why don't they stay young

Heartbreaking, beautiful and poetic. As George Bernad Shaw once said, no man will ever write a better tragedy than King Lear. Now let's see if anyone knows where I stole this joke from
