Mephisto Page #5

371

00:
42:10,441 -- 00:42:15,105

Yes, I like dancing.

I had a good teacher.

372

00:
42:15,379 -- 00:42:18,075

I'd like to model your head.

373

00:
42:22,053 -- 00:42:27,514

No necktie and no gold we've got

We're just a very shabby lot

374

00:
42:27,925 -- 00:42:31,452

At which the bourgeois spits

375

00:
42:31,929 -- 00:42:36,025

The bourgeois with polished boots

And medals on morning suits

376

00:
42:36,133 -- 00:42:41,264

And e very morning he ablutes

for church, or for the Ritz

377

00:
42:43,241 -- 00:42:48,804

Where does the bourgeois get it all?

His guns his celebration ball?

378

00:
42:49,046 -- 00:42:51,742

He steals it where he can

379

00:
42:52,250 -- 00:42:56,277

He makes it hard for us to rob

Takes it all, the greedy slob

380

00:
42:56,387 -- 00:43:01,290

Exploits the poor and wrecks the job

of e very working man

381

00:
43:02,994 -- 00:43:09,627

Oh, if so wealthy I could be,

Commit like him grand larceny

382

00:
43:09,734 -- 00:43:12,567

All honored since my birth

383

00:
43:12,837 -- 00:43:18,742

If then I met someone I knew,

You filthy lot, I'd spit at you

384

00:
43:18,843 -- 00:43:24,713

That's all you dogs are worth!

385

00:
43:30,855 -- 00:43:33,881

Get the Jews out of here!

386

00:
43:47,571 -- 00:43:49,402

The y are completely drunk.

387

00:
43:51,509 -- 00:43:56,139

Now one of the most famous

State Theater actors, Hendrik Hfgen.

388

00:
43:59,684 -- 00:44:05,145

Forget State Theater and fame.

I am your comrade Hendrik Hfgen.

389

00:
44:08,392 -- 00:44:14,854

What does the proletariat want?

That nobody should rule!

390

00:
44:15,199 -- 00:44:21,502

What does the proletariat want?

That nobody should rule!

391

00:
44:21,739 -- 00:44:27,143

Nobody shall give orders

Nobody shall be a sla ve

392

00:
44:27,345 -- 00:44:32,282

Freedom, equality for all souls

393

00:
44:33,084 -- 00:44:35,552

I'll dictate. Headline:

394

00:
44:36,053 -- 00:44:42,288

Actor Hfgen wins

Berlin workers' hearts o vernight.

395

00:
44:42,927 -- 00:44:44,189

New paragraph.

396

00:
44:45,463 -- 00:44:47,624

- Hendrik?

- Hello.

397

00:
44:48,966 -- 00:44:55,132

I bought this picture at the

antique dealer. You don't mind?

398

00:
44:55,272 -- 00:44:56,967

Why should I mind?

399

00:
44:57,174 -- 00:45:00,268

You can admire it

while I go and change.

400

00:
45:35,746 -- 00:45:41,207

I lo ve you, Barbara. Not only

your father and grandmother.

401

00:
45:41,385 -- 00:45:44,286

I lo ve you... I, Hendrik Hfgen.

402

00:
45:59,603 -- 00:46:02,800

Welcome to my home,

dear Sebastian.

403

00:
46:03,107 -- 00:46:05,905

The theater awaits me.

404

00:
46:06,010 -- 00:46:10,606

Up!

405

00:
47:18,816 -- 00:47:19,714

Up!

406

00:
47:20,518 -- 00:47:21,610

Two!

407

00:
47:22,286 -- 00:47:23,378

Three!

408

00:
47:23,988 -- 00:47:25,080

Four!

409

00:
47:25,623 -- 00:47:26,681

Five!

410

00:
47:26,857 -- 00:47:27,881

Six!

411

00:
47:28,125 -- 00:47:32,152

Fhrer!

We are our people's strength!

412

00:
47:32,263 -- 00:47:35,027

We shall create a new world!

413

00:
47:35,199 -- 00:47:37,997

- What's your father's job?

- Road digger!

414

00:
47:38,135 -- 00:47:40,069

- And your father's?

- Farmer!

415

00:
47:40,171 -- 00:47:43,470

- And yours?

- Teacher. He educates us!

416

00:
47:43,574 -- 00:47:47,169

- And your father?

- Baker. He bakes our bread!

417

00:
47:47,278 -- 00:47:49,906

Mine's a miller. He grinds our grain!

418

00:
47:50,014 -- 00:47:52,073

A doctor. He makes us healthy!

419

00:
47:52,183 -- 00:47:54,242

Brickla yer. He builds our houses!

420

00:
47:54,351 -- 00:47:56,182

- Conductor!

- Electrician!

421

00:
47:56,287 -- 00:48:00,553

We are the sons of one people,

we all ha ve the same goal!

422

00:
48:00,658 -- 00:48:03,491

Unity and strength!

We follow the Fhrer!

423

00:
48:03,594 -- 00:48:10,762

No. That's not convincing enough.

Sa y it like this...

424

00:
48:10,901 -- 00:48:13,768

- Again... one, two, three.

- Unity and strength!

425

00:
48:13,871 -- 00:48:17,204

- Again... one, two, three.

- Unity and strength!

426

00:
48:17,308 -- 00:48:18,366

Again!

427

00:
48:18,475 -- 00:48:20,409

Unity and strength!

428

00:
48:20,511 -- 00:48:23,480

- Louder! Again!

- Unity and strength!

429

00:
48:23,681 -- 00:48:24,978

We follow the Fhrer!

430

00:
48:25,082 -- 00:48:30,543

Blood is a very special juice...

431

00:
48:32,756 -- 00:48:38,490

...let us in depths of sensuousness

assuage our burning passions.

432

00:
48:39,597 -- 00:48:41,929

No bounds and goals are set for you.

433

00:
48:42,032 -- 00:48:45,832

You find your pleasure.

A fleeing treasure.

434

00:
48:45,970 -- 00:48:51,931

Ma y you enjo y the prize you get.

Help yourself and don't be co y.

435

00:
48:52,042 -- 00:48:54,602

But listen, it's not a question of jo y.

436

00:
48:54,712 -- 00:48:58,170

To knowledge I'm de voted,

most painful gratification.

437

00:
48:58,282 -- 00:49:01,217

Most hateful lo ve,

most ve xing stimulation.

438

00:
49:01,318 -- 00:49:07,917

Belie ve me, who countless years

on this hard nourishment has fed.

439

00:
49:08,025 -- 00:49:14,225

That from cradle to the gra ve, no

human can digest so stale a bread.

440

00:
49:14,398 -- 00:49:18,664

Belie ve me, worlds

celestial and infernal...

441

00:
49:18,769 -- 00:49:21,602

...for one divinity were made.

442

00:
49:21,705 -- 00:49:24,833

He e xists in eternal light.

443

00:
49:24,942 -- 00:49:30,244

But us, into the darkness, has

conve yed there's da y and night alone.

444

00:
49:30,347 -- 00:49:31,609

Yet I want that!

445

00:
49:32,750 -- 00:49:37,016

That's well worth hearing.

But there's one thing I fear.

446

00:
49:37,121 -- 00:49:39,988

For time is short, but art is long.

447

00:
49:40,090 -- 00:49:44,823

If I thought you sought more teaching,

cultivate a poet fond of preaching.

448

00:
49:44,995 -- 00:49:47,088

Let his thoughts wander.

449

00:
49:47,197 -- 00:49:50,758

And e very noble quality upon

your brow let him bestow...

450

00:
49:50,868 -- 00:49:53,530

...the lion's courage,

the buck's swiftness.

451

00:
49:53,637 -- 00:49:56,765

The Italian's fiery blood,

the north's enduring pluck.

452

00:
49:56,874 -- 00:50:01,004

He'll teach you the secret vile

of magnanimity steeped in guile.

453

00:
50:01,145 -- 00:50:06,014

Ma y his youthful drives unco ver

to make of you an ardent lo ver.

454

00:
50:07,117 -- 00:50:14,455

I'd like to meet a scholar of such fame

to Microcosm I'd change his name.

455

00:
50:14,992 -- 00:50:20,760

So what am I, if it's not possible

the paragon of humanity to attain...

456

00:
50:20,864 -- 00:50:22,889

...towards all my senses strain?

457

00:
50:23,000 -- 00:50:27,437

You're in the end just what you are.

458

00:
50:28,072 -- 00:50:31,508

Put on the wigs of a million curls.

459

00:
50:32,009 -- 00:50:36,207

Put your feet in ele vating socks.

460

00:
50:37,081 -- 00:50:41,518

You'll sta y fore ver what you are!
