FREDERICK FRANKENSTEIN
(Spoken)
So, now we hurl the gauntlet of science into the frightful face of death itself

(Sung)
Ever since the beginning of time
When life arose from primeval slime
Death has ruled without question
Death has ruled supreme
Without the least suggestion
That man could foil its scheme
But now we call on science
To end death's evil reign
We shout in brave defiance
This soul shall live again

Life, life, let my creature live
Life, life, it's life that you must give
Fate, fate, through this storm and strife
Fate, fate, give my creature life
Tear the night asunder
Cast your light upon the dark
The lightning bolts and thunder will ignite a mortal spark

Life, life, ere the break of dawn
Life, life, let my dream be born
Fate, fate, through this storm and strife
Fate, fate, give my creature life
Give my creature life
(spoken)
This is it! Igor, throw the first switch

IGOR
Yes Master

FREDERICK FRANKENSTEIN
(sung)
Life, life, give my creature life
Give my creature life

(spoken)
Now, throw the second switch

IGOR
Yes Master

COMPANY
Give the creature life

FREDERICK FRANKENSTEIN
(sung)
Tear the night asunder
Cast your light upon the dark
The lightning bolts and thunder will ignite a mortal spark
(spoken)
Now, Igor, throw the third switch

IGOR
Not the third switch

FREDERICK FRANKENSTEIN
Yes the third switch, throw it damn you throw it

IGOR
Yes master

FREDERICK FRANKENSTEIN
Inga, now!

FREDERICK
Give me life!
Ere the break of dawn
Let my dream be born, be born!
Through this storm and strife
Through the wind swept air
Listen to my prayer
Stir his brain
Let breathing start
Let me hear his beating heart
Give my creature life!!
