Echo and Narcissus story - EDIT

Dan - Our night begins with a tale of woe, that of Narcicuss and the wood nympth Echo. Echo was young with a spring in her step,
Ami - singing and gossiping was what I do best
Dan - Narcicuss was tall and thought he was cool,
Jakko - I have no interest in the wood nympth at all.
Dan - Young Echo was gossping all the day long, till along came Hera who hated her song.
Ami and Jakko - Gossip aboout me, and you will see- the voice of others thats your burden to be.
Dan Cursing the nypmth with something she'll lack, she could only repeat the words she heard back
Ami – words she heard back
Dan -Desperate to speak but her voice was too weak, Echo ran to Narcicuss and kissed his soft cheek.
Now narcicuss knew he was rich, handsome and tall
Jakko though my ego is big my balls were quite small.
Dan -He pushed her away with all of his might, she'd certainly given him a terrible fright.
Jakko-Dont kisss me again,
Dan he warned with a scorn,
Jakko Ive only love for myself since the day i was born.
Ami: Takeme away, I caan bear it no more. If he will not boogie, I'll leave the dancefloor
Dan: her prayers were answeredd, and echo was gone. No longer to be seen.
Dan & Ami: Just a voice in a song.
Dan: Meanwhile narcicuss the vainest of all, was checking himself out in a reflective wall.
Jakko - Who is this person so gallant and tall?
All of us - why, that is you replied the wall.
Jakko - Look at my lips and gaze at my eyes, is there anyone with bigger bulge in their flies?
Dan - It was love at first sight for mirror and him, joined together forever in mortal sin.
Jakko -Struck with love for myself
Dan-, he died on that spot,
Ami-and in the space of his bones grew a tiny white dot.
All- A beautiful flower for all see,
Jakko grows on the riverbank reflecting thee.
Dan -so
Jakko -narcicuss
Dan and
Ami echo
Dan are not here at all,
Ami but my voice
Jakko and my flower
All is a warning to us all.
Dan-So the man became a seed
Jack – and my seed became a flower
Dan – and the girl became a voice
Ami - That spoke on every hour
Dan – Ladies and Gentleman that time is here
Ami and Jakko – the ghosts are all around us
Dan – thats their breath in your ear. In the shimmering of the trees
Ami -the echo of the walls
Jakko – and in the shudder of the dance floor
Dan -the lovers hear their call, hold on to your seats or
all -fall and fall hard
Jakko – Leap with the blind
Ami – and lower your guard
All- Stand and deliver
dan – one
jakko -two
Ami – three

All – tonight love asks, what will you do for me?
