premiere cast - and eve was weak lyrics

[margaret] (spoken)
bow your head and pray, woman
and god made eve from adam’s rib. and eve was weak and loosed the raven on the world

[carrie] (spoken)
momma, it wasn’t my fault

[margaret] (spoken)
and the raven was called sin. and god visited eve with a curse. and the curse was the curse of blood. say it, woman!

[margaret] (sung)
and god made eve from adam’s rib
and eve was weak

[carrie]
momma, how could i know?

[margaret]
and eve was weak
and eve was weak

[carrie]
why didn’t you tell me?

[margaret]
and god made eve to bear the curse
the curse of blood
the curse of blood

[carrie]
it’s not a curse. mrs. gardner said its something all girls go through!

[margaret]
the curse of blood!

[carrie]
you should have told me!

[margaret] (spoken)
you’re a woman now! pray to heaven for your wicked soul!

(sung)
the raven came to plague the world
its name was sin

[carrie]
it’s not a sin!

[margaret]
its name was sin

[carrie]
oh, momma, it’s not a sin!

[margaret]
its name was sin! begin:
and l-st was how the sin began
the sin was man!

[carrie]
i don’t understand

[margaret]
well, understand!

[carrie]
no!

[margaret]
the sin was man!

[carrie]
what have i done?

[margaret]
god has seen you sinning
just beginning
pray for your salvation
from d-mnation
pray or
he will burn you!
he will burn you!
the seed conveys the power
and its come again

[carrie]
momma, what is the seed?

[margaret]
its come again!

[carrie]
don’t you care that i started to bleed?

[margaret]
its come again
until the seed is crushed its power never ends
it never ends
it never ends!

[carrie]
momma, i was so scared
and they all stared
then i started crying
i thought i was dying
momma!
please don’t hurt me!

[margaret]
have you no sense of shame?
pray for mercy
get down on your knees!

[carrie]
please don’t hurt me!

[margaret]
satan’s staking his claim
cause your soul is a hole of disease
i can see you inside!

[carrie]
don’t believe with your eyes!

[margaret]
full of sin!
full of pride

[carrie]
those are lies, momma, lies!

[margaret]
that’s how lucifer fell!

[carrie]
momma, how could i know?

[margaret]
and you’re headed for h-ll!
i won’t let you go!

[carrie]
momma, let me go!

[margaret]
heaven
hates a sinner
hates a sinner

[carrie]
i’m not a sinner

[margaret]
save yourself from burning

[carrie]
(simultaneously with margaret)
momma, stop!
its burning!
stop, its burning!
momma, please!
no!
stop!

[margaret]
god, she’s burning!
pray or
he will burn you!
he will burn you!
and god made eve from adam’s rib
and eve was weak
and i was weak
i prayed this day would never come
i should have known
i should have known
now i’m alone
and so afraid
oh, lord
i’ve seen this power before
but flesh is weak, and i implore!
father, don’t forsake her!
father, take her!
cleanse and purify her
with the fire!
and the power!
and the glory!
forever!
and ever!
and ever!
amen!
