[whizzer]
marvin at the psychiatrist, a three-part mini-opera
part one:
[mendel]
do you love him?
[marvin]
sorta kinda
[mendel]
do you need him?
[marvin]
sorta kinda
he makes me smile a lot
especially at mealtime
it makes me feel i’m sort of smart
[mendel]
mm-hm
is he special?
[marvin]
he’s delightful
[mendel]
and romantic?
[marvin]
yes, and spiteful
but yet it seems that so am i
[mendel]
just enjoy what you can
love the boy, not the man
[marvin]
man
sorta stylish
[mendel]
kinda very
[marvin]
mmm, very very sorta
[mendel]
and kind of hard to describe…?
[marvin]
yes, you know, i think that’s true
[mendel]
when he’s naked-
[marvin]
yes?
[mendel]
does he thrill you?
[marvin]
yes!
[mendel]
is he vicious?
[marvin]
yes!
[mendel]
would he k!ll you?
[marvin]
yes…
i think he’s sorta kinda mean
but i love him, and i need it
if he loved me, i’d concede it
[mendel]
don’t despise what you feel
love the friend, not the heel
[marvin]
heel
[mendel]
he’s sometimes worthless
[marvin]
sometimes evil
[mendel]
sometimes smarmy
[whizzer]
part two:
[mendel]
it’s queer, mr. marvin- sorry
[marvin]
jesus…
[mendel]
strange, mr. marvin
how your wife, your ex-wife’s meager glories
coupled with her tragic stories
move me in unreported ways
[marvin]
she’s a very good woman
she’s a wonderful woman
[mendel]
do you mind that?
she was here to speak of jason
and i find that
i hope jason acts out more
’cause there’s a few more things we need explored
[marvin]
oh no, i understand
[mendel]
good, very good, very very good
i feel a lot better already
going on
was she a vicious woman?
[marvin]
no
[mendel]
did she beat the child?
[marvin]
no
[mendel]
did she ever drive you wild?
[marvin]
no
[mendel]
never?
[marvin]
no
[mendel]
never?
[marvin]
no
[mendel]
never, never, never, never?
[marvin]
no
[mendel]
never?
[marvin]
no
[mendel]
never?
[marvin]
no, no, no!
[mendel]
was she faithful? be objective
[marvin]
oh, yes
[mendel]
she was faithful
[marvin]
yes
[mendel]
and her last caress was
[marvin]
careless
[mendel]
you mean careful?
[marvin]
careful
not to show she cared
[mendel]
so you weren’t prepared
for the crying
and the screaming
[marvin]
and the beating of the breast
oh- i don’t wanna be rude
[mendel]
does she sleep in the nude?
[marvin]
no
[mendel]
no, going on
did you like that?
would she change it if she knew you didn’t like that?
did she wear a negligé?
could you blow and it would blow away?
i don’t mean to interfere
i would like to make that very clear
[whizzer]
part three:
[marvin]
my son’s distressing
[jason]
my father’s snide
[marvin]
i’m convalescing
[jason]
he’s morbid and dissatisfied
[marvin]
what should i do now?
[jason]
he loves another
[marvin]
i agree
[jason]
i love my mother
[marvin]
why not me?
we go to ball games
[jason]
the ball is tossed
[marvin]
the pitcher’s handsome
[jason]
and our team lost
[marvin]
is that my problem?
should i be blamed for that?
[jason]
explore museums
[marvin]
admire art
[jason]
we stand together
[marvin]
but we stand there looking miles apart
how do i reach him?
what words of wisdom?
what should i do now?
[jason]
my father says that love
is the most beautiful thing in the world
i think games are
i think chess is the most
beautiful thing
not love
[whizzer]
