letra de marvin's giddy seizures - william finn

marvin:
one, two. one, two, three. one, two, three, four.
marvin is boy who has giddy seizures,
he’s laughing all the time.
marvin is boy who has giddy seizures,
sometimes they’re fatal.
when he turns upside down like a ladle pouring soup
he’s a veritable fool.
marvin is my very best friend in school.
it’s me and marvin.
lately i’ve been thinking maybe marvin needs attention
of a private sort.
maybe this whole seizure thing is something he invented,
or is it medicinal: should his mother be blamed?
all:
marvin has a something which most everybody needs;
he cannot ever be embarr-ssed.
marvin:
marvin is my very best friend in school.
and i’m embarr-ssed and ashamed. oh.
ladies (all at once):
marvin! what are you doing?
who do you think you are, marvin?
what’s marvin doing?
marvin:
pardon me boys and girls, but i’m having a seizure.
ladies:
oh, marvin. hey, marvin.
marvin:
yes i’m having a seizure today, hey, hey,
watch me laugh.
ladies:
marvin’s giddy seizures.
marvin:
watch me cry.
ladies:
marvin’s giddy seizures.
marvin:
i am counting on your prayers to get me by.
ladies:
marvin’s giddy seizures.
marvin:
well my arms disappear and my legs disappear and my knees disappear and my
shoulders disappear
when marvin throws the best fit of the year.
all:
marvin’s giddy seizures: marvin needs love.
he needs love. he needs love.
he needs love. ooooooh.
marvin:
marvin holds his breath, his face is under water
but that’s not a seizure.
marvin talks of death, he imitates a slaughter
but that’s not a seizure.
then he begins to shriek like a virgin,
and his eyes turn an ordinary fizz–
(nothing’s exactly like i say it is)–
but hey, that’s a seizure!
ladies (all at once):
marvin! what are you doing?
who do you think you are, marvin?
what’s marvin doing?
marvin:
pardon me boys and girls but i’m having a seizure.
ladies:
oh, marvin. hey, marvin.
marvin:
yes, i’m having a seizure today, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
watch me laugh.
ladies:
marvin’s giddy seizures.
marvin:
watch me cry.
ladies:
marvin’s giddy seizures.
marvin:
i am counting on your prayers to get me by.
ladies:
marvin’s giddy seizures.
arms.
marvin:
disappear!
ladies:
legs.
marvin:
disappear!
ladies:
groin.
marvin:
disappears!
ladies:
knees.
marvin:
disappear
when marvin throws the best fit of the year.
all:
marvin’s giddy seizures: marvin needs love.
he needs love. he needs love.
he needs love. ooooooh.
marvin’s giddy seizures: marvin needs love.
he needs love. he needs love.
he needs love. ooooooh.
marvin’s giddy seizures: marvin needs love.
he needs love. he needs love.
he needs love. ooooooh.
