United in Distaste Lyrics by Starry Musical

Starry (Original Concept Recording) [Deluxe Edition]

2020

[SEGATORI, spoken]
Mais oui, who's this?
[TOULOUSE]
Another painter in town
[BERNARD, spoken]
I think it's Theo's brother, you can tell by the frown
[GAUGUIN, spoken]
Good man, what's your name?
[TOULOUSE]
And what have you got?
[VINCENT, spoken]
Just my—
[GAUGUIN, spoken]
Painting? How lovely!
[SEGATORI]
I'll go find it a spot
[VINCENT]
I'm Vincent Van Gogh
[BERNARD]
Yeah, we know who you are
[VINCENT, spoken]
You do?
[TOULOUSE, spoken]
It's true
[SEGATORI]
Grab a glass from the bar
[GAUGUIN, spoken]
Raw talent, no doubt, but your palette is hard
You need—
[TOULOUSE, spoken]
Softness
[BERNARD, spoken]
More angles!
[GAUGUIN, spoken]
Oh, shut up Bernard
(sung)
Right here, add more yellow, this section's too dark
[VINCENT]
My brother had mentioned in passing remark that—
[GAUGUIN, spoken]
We'd help you? No worries!
[TOULOUSE, spoken]
It's because we're nice
[SEGATORI, spoken]
Sit back, have a drink
[GAUGUIN, spoken]
See, we're full of advice
(sung)
Inspiration's around any corner
You never know what you may find
For every madam or monsieur has a story to tell with more wine
In absinthe's absence you'll see
There's no abstinence ever for me
Does my brush make you blush from my objects of lust?
'Cause the busts that I paint are divine
There's no guilt or chagrin
In the doctrine of Gauguin
Mon ami, mes amis, few and far between
Raise your glass for life!
[ENSEMBLE, spoken]
La vie!
[DEGAS]
You're the rich one, Paul, so you buy us the beer
[PISSARRO]
And how's your wife and child you haven't seen in a year?
[GAUGUIN, spoken]
I'll admit, I'm a savage
[TOULOUSE]
We've heard this before
[BERNARD, spoken]
Is savage the word?
[MORISOT]
Maybe it's whore
[SEGATORI]
Alright! Calm your tempers
For now we're all friends
[DEGAS]
I'll just pray for your soul
[GAUGUIN]
As the good lord intends
[ALL]
We paint our destiny incessantly
So loud and unrefined
United in distaste we will embrace
The madness of the grind
Or lose our mind
[TOULOUSE, spoken]
We have crédos too
[BERNARD, spoken]
All of us
[GAUGUIN, spoken]
Ugh, que la fou
[TOULOUSE]
Toulouse-Lautrec is all about contour
[MORISOT]
And speaks in the third person
[TOULOUSE]
Hic! What about you, monsieur?
[VINCENT]
I believe in—
[BERNARD]
Contrast, symbols grounded in truth
Something real and authentic
[GAUGUIN, spoken]
Where's the vermouth?
[DEGAS]
Emile is too simplistic
[BERNARD]
Hey, my topics are vast
[TOULOUSE, spoken]
At least it's not a dancer or a big horse's ass
[PISSARRO]
All of you argue like children
[GAUGUIN, spoken]
Thanks, Grandpa Pissarro
[DEGAS]
Glad you told us now, 'cause you might die tomorrow
[MORISOT]
He's aging with grace
[TOULOUSE]
Oh, Madame Morisot
Has your head grown in size or is it just your chapeau?
[MORISOT, spoken]
Speaking of size—
[SEGATORI]
Okay!
My friends, I really hate to mother
But you're at my café, and you need each other
[ALL]
We paint our destiny allegedly
Together, non-aligned
United in distaste we will embrace
The madness of our kind
Or lose our mind
[GAUGUIN]
We say that it's a brotherhood
But we're all full of shit
[TOULOUSE, spoken]
He's right
[GAUGUIN]
It's you or me, my work or yours
Much more than we'd admit
And Vincent Van Gogh, what of you?
[TOULOUSE]
We're your confidants
[BERNARD]
What's your style?
[MORISOT & DEGAS]
What's your vision?
[GAUGUIN]
Yes, what do you want?
[IMPRESSIONISTS]
What do you want?
[VINCENT]
What do I want?
I want our brushstrokes to be interwoven
Before we're condemned to a future that's broken
Where all of our colors and thoughts and emotion
Give us the strength against all our erosion
A canvas with a key
To finally set us free
[ALL]
To finally set us free
We paint our destiny with ecstasy
To change all humankind
United in distaste we will embrace
The madness we designed
Or lose our mind
(Unintelligible excited chatter)
[SEGATORI, spoken]
Shut up!
[ALL]
Or lose our mind
