Leonardo - The Absolute Man - Apprentice Songtexte
Students: We're here to learn
from the agead masters.
An education... experience.
To see the universe in a way
To "feel the universe"
A new apprentice is arriving today
We don't want the boy from Vinci
to be here showing us,
telling us...
Leonardo: "What you see, I can already see"
Chorus: Leonardo - Notebooks full of design
Verrocchio: Masterpiece and invention!
Chorus: never finished in time
Melzi: One day this absolute man...
Chorus: from his circle of mirrors will give...
Melzi: His own gift to the ages -
Melzi & Verrocchio: Leonardo...
Students: Our renaissance is a marriage -
art and science
A science of art
Will DaVinci learn well 'his' universe?
... in a way to paint this universe?
Verrocchio: Goldsmith, artist, engineer
Sculpture, mathematics, optics and mechanics
Salai: Philosophy...
Melzi: A genius of the anatomy
Chorus: Leonardo - Canvas covered with light
Verrocchio: Painting Christ with precision
Chorus: John The Baptist divine!
Salai: Jealous, the teacher admits...
Chorus: that this protege surpassed him
and must...
Verrocchio, Melzi & Salai: stand alone
as a master -
Verrochio: Leonardo....
Leonardo: I should leave for Milan now...
I've had enough here
I can't take this
I've been accused of crimes
"I'm not sacred"
Your honor, give me names
of the accusers in my desperate hour
Tell me, where are the now?
I want names, I want names.
Court: "They're anonymus"
Leonardo: I want names!
Court: "But they're anonymus"
Leonardo: I've got to clear my name
My name, now!!!
On your decision I base all fear
I've been arrested, now my fate rests here
How long must I wait for a answer?
With my impatience
I can't take this
Was my defense a case of just politics?
I stand acquited, but should be 'committed'
in this desperate hour
I'd like to thank you for absolutely nothing
Excuse me for being rude
But my time has come, I'm gone
I'm overdue for that trip to Milan now...
Chorus: Leonardo - Notebooks full of design
Verrocchio: Masterpiece and invention!
Chorus: never finished in time
Salai: One day this absolute man...
Chorus: from his circle of mirrors will give...
Melzi: his own gift to the ages
