A Tight-Knit Family / Love Is Blind

歌词
制作人 : Kurt Deutsch

MARVIN: Well, the situation's this

I do not wish to a offend

I divorced my wife

I left my child

And I ran off with a friend

But I want a tight-knit family

I want a group that harmonizes

I want my wife and kid and friend

To pretend time will mend

Our pain

So it's 1979

And we don't go by the book

We all eat as one-

Wife, friend, and son-

And I sing out as they cook

I love my tight-knit family

I love the way they cook linguine

Isn't great? We're all so swell

Such a dear clientele.

I swear we're gonna come through it.

I fear we'll probably fight,

But nothing's impossible

Live by your wit-

Kid, wife, and lover will have to admit

I was right

I cushioned the fall

I want it all

I want it all

I want it...

I want it all-

MENDEL: Sit down, my dear

I hear you have a problem

I'm sure you're not disgusting or indiscreet

Take a load off your feet.

TRINA: Thank you.

MENDEL: Happy or sad?

TRINA:Well...

MENDEL: That's a question with no answer.

Let's no discuss the wheather; let's face the facts.

Mavin's wife must relax

TRINA: Love isn't sex

That's a thing my husband once told me

Marvin, my ex-

You've seen him for years-

Told me over the phone to tell you my fears

Do you only treat queers?

MENDEL: Uh, no. Breathe deep, my dear

You'll find me understanding

Your pain is a priori

Unfold you untold story

Now to break bread

Loosen your glands

Put your head in my hands

TRINA: I'm everything he wanted

It's time I put it all together

The date was set

My father let me marry

I married. I...

Then Marvin came from work

Sat me down on the bed

He told me how he loved me, how he needed and or valued me

I have... ( MENDEL: What? )

MARVIN AND TRINA/TRINA:Syphilis./He said. ( MENDEL: Good. )

TRINA: I have... ( MENDEL: Yes? )

MARVIN AND TRINA/TRINA: Syphilis./It's true. ( MENDEL: Good. )

TRINA: I had something rotten which appears though now it's well forgotten

MARVIN: Maybe, darling, so do you

TRINA: Maybe, darling, so do you

TRINA: I am probably diseased... ( MENDEL: You're a lovely girl. )

TRINA: And so easily appeased. ( MENDEL: What a lovely girl. Though she's probably diseased. )

TRINA: He took pains to not excite us

He explains I've...

MARVIN AND TRINA/TRINA: Hepatitis/Too

MARVIN, JASON, AND WHIZZER: Hepa hepa hepatitis hepatitis hepatitis

MENDEL: Love is blind

Love can tell a million stories

Love's unkind

Spiteful in a million ways

TRINA: Then I stayed home from work

Took good care of my men

They faked despair; they wet their bed; they combed their hair; they acted dead

One said... ( MENDEL: Yes? )

JASON: Daddy is a prick. ( MENDEL: What? )

TRINA: He said...( MENDEL: Yes?)

JASON: Daddy isn't mine! ( MENDEL: Good. )

TRINA: He filled my coats with candies and notes, with 'Will you be my valentine'?

MARVIN: (To Whizzer) Will you be my valentine?

TRINA: This gets harder to believe... ( MENDEL: You're a damaged girl.)

TRINA: I've a scalpel up my sleeve. ( OTHERS: What a damaged girl. )

MENDEL: Do not ever slit your wrists

TRINA: I've missed him, he's still missing

Don't make noise, but daddy's kissing-

BOYS!

ALL: Petty, petty, petty, petty

MENDEL AND TRINA: Love is blind

Love can tell a million stories

Love's unkind

Spiteful in a million ways

ALL: Love is blind

Love can tell a million stories

Love's unkind

Spiteful in a million ways

MARVIN/ OTHERS:Love is crazy/ Love-

Love is often boring

Love stinks/ Love-

Love is pretty often debris

When you find/ Love-

What you find

Then never, never, never, never, never/ Love-

Do it over again

Love reads like a bad biography/ Love-

All the names are changed to protect the innocent/ Love-

ALL: Love is blind

MENDEL: My name is Mendel

I treat her husband

I think she's very insecure

But so am I

I've never married

Work, work is my passion

Or perhaps that's an alibi

MARVIN: Yeah, perhaps it is.

MENDEL: I don't care to discuss it.

I think she's charming

I think she's needy

In just five sessions on my couch

She'll be like new

OTHERS: His name is Mendel- ( WHIZZER: Ah-ah- )

MENDEL: Return next Friday

I admit I admire you
