lirik lagu william finn - how marvin eats his breakfast (1985)
[ladies, spoken]
how marvin eats his breakfast
how marvin eats his breakfast
how marvin eats his breakfast
[marvin]
i love being marvin!
i love being marvin!
marvin turned fourteen today
and eats the very best breakfast in town
[ladies, spoken]
how marvin eats his breakfast
[marvin]
everybody into the kitchen
here comes
marvin
banging his groin with his fist
[ladies]
he mumbles in
to insist:
[marvin]
no one looks busy in this kitchen
and my breakfast isn’t ready
and my stomach aches
i mean specifically the maid
who is reclining like she laid the golden egg
i want some chatter and some gruel
make me want to drool
try to make me hungry
[ladies]
ohhh…
[marvin]
cat got your tongue?
[ladies]
marvin always knows the sort of answers he’ll allow
[marvin]
i may be sly dear, but not young
[ladies]
“wait until i’m older then i’ll k!ll you”
is his one unspoken vow
[marvin]
i need my breakfast now!
[drum break]
[all]
everybody into the kitchen
here comes
marvin
[ladies]
aiming a gun at the maid:
he shoots her head, she falls dead
[marvin]
oh jesus christ it wasn’t loaded
she’s an actress from the old school
and a lousy chef
i don’t want miracles from heaven
just some eggies over spinach over toast
no, i will not apologize!
she should win a prize:
“very best
emoting”
[ladies]
ohhhh…
[marvin]
that girl can’t cook
[ladies]
maybe she can’t cook
but have you seen her milk a cow?
[marvin]
and i can read her like a book
[ladies]
marvin wouldn’t read that kind of novel anyhow
[marvin]
i need my breakfast
now!
[drum break]
[marvin]
people, people
[ladies]
people, people
[marvin]
stop your staring
[ladies]
stop your staring
[marvin]
people, people
stop your staring
get to work
my breakfast isn’t made yet
[ladies]
people, people
stop your staring
get to work
his breakfast isn’t…
[all]
life is lonely
life is rotten
[marvin]
and thankfully short
thankfully short
thankfully short
[ladies, spoken]
like marvin
[marvin]
everybody into the kitchen
here comes
m-m-m-m-m-m-m-…
[ladies]
marvin!
[marvin]
marvin!
[ladies]
waving his hands like a twit
he throws a fit
then a knife
[marvin]
you call this breakfast on my birthday?
this is sh-t, this isn’t breakfast
i could crack your feet
[ladies]
no, no…
[marvin]
i mean for god’s sake
am i talking to the wall?
when i say breakfast
i mean food
i dreamt last night of hips and legs
now i want some eggs
things i might
relate to
[ladies]
ohhhh…
[marvin]
i’m just a sprite
[ladies]
marvin underestimates the fear that he’ll endow
[marvin]
i’ll wait here ’til you get it right!
[ladies]
do i?
do i really?
do i really have to show you people how?
[marvin]
i…
[all]
need my breakfast
now!
