Aldonza - Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio/Brian Stokes Mitchell[00:00:00]
My lady[00:00:08]
I am not your lady[00:00:09]
I am not any kind of a lady[00:00:12]
I was spawned in a ditch[00:00:16]
By a mother who left me there[00:00:18]
Naked and cold and too hungry to cry[00:00:22]
I never blamed her[00:00:27]
I'm sure she left hoping[00:00:29]
That I'd have the good sense to die[00:00:31]
Then of course there's my father[00:00:36]
I'm told that young ladies[00:00:39]
Can point to their fathers[00:00:42]
With maidenly pride[00:00:44]
Mine was some regiment[00:00:47]
Here for an hour[00:00:49]
I can't even tell you which side[00:00:52]
So of course I became[00:00:57]
As befitted my delicate birth[00:00:59]
The most casual bride[00:01:04]
Of the murdering scum of the earth[00:01:07]
And still thou art my lady[00:01:11]
And still he torments me[00:01:12]
How should I be a lady[00:01:14]
For a lady has modest and maidenly airs[00:01:16]
And a virtue I somehow suspect that I lack[00:01:21]
It's hard to remember these maidenly airs[00:01:26]
In a stable laid flat on your back[00:01:31]
Won't you look at me look at me[00:01:36]
God won't you look at me[00:01:39]
Look at the kitchen slat reeking of sweat[00:01:41]
Born on a dung heap to die on a dung heap[00:01:46]
A strumpet men use and forget[00:01:51]
If you feel that you see me[00:01:56]
Not quite at my virginal best[00:01:59]
Cross my palm with a coin[00:02:03]
And I'll willingly show you the rest[00:02:06]
Never deny thou art dulcinea[00:02:10]
Take the clouds from your eyes[00:02:12]
And see me as I really am[00:02:13]
You have shown me the sky[00:02:15]
But what good is the sky[00:02:18]
To a creature who'll never[00:02:20]
Do better than crawl[00:02:23]
Of all the cruel bastards[00:02:25]
Who've badgered and battered me[00:02:28]
You are the cruelest of all[00:02:31]
Can't you see what your gentle[00:02:35]
Insanities do to me[00:02:37]
Rob me of anger and give me despair blows and abuse[00:02:40]
I can take and give back again[00:02:47]
Tenderness I cannot bear[00:02:50]
So please torture me now[00:02:54]
With your sweet dulcineas no more[00:02:57]
I know what I'm nothing[00:03:02]
I'm only aldonza[00:03:04]
Now and forever thou art my lady dulcinea[00:03:08]
