Young man I don't think we've met before You're not from around here, son Don't know who the hell you are, but I can tell you don't belong These are workin' people, son Law-abiding citizens Go back to where you came from You're on the wrong side of the fence Hades, I know this boy One of the unemployed? His name is Orpheus You stay out of this Orpheus was a poor boy You hear me, son? You might say he was naïve You better run! But this poor boy raised up his voice with his heart out on his sleeve No! Orpheus, you should go I'm not goin' back alone I came to take her home! Ha ha, ha ha, ha ha Who the hell do you think you are? Who the hell you think you're talkin' to? She couldn't go anywhere, even if she wanted to You're not from around here, son If you were, then you would know That everything and everyone in Hadestown, I own But I only buy what others choose to sell Oh, you didn't know? She signed the deal herself And now she It isn't true Belongs to me It isn't true What he said Eurydice I did I do As for you Everybody gather 'round! Everybody look and see What becomes of trespassers with no respect for property!
