cast of falsettos - the baseball game lyrics
marvin, trina, mendel, charlotte, cordelia
we’re sitting
and watching jason play baseball
we’re watching jason play baseball!
we’re watching jewish boys
who cannot play baseball, play baseball!
we’re watching jewish boys
who cannot play baseball play-
marvin
i hate baseball, i really do!
unlike the rest of you
i hate baseball!
charlotte and cordelia
we really wish he’d take this more seriously!
mendel
it’s weird how he swings the bat!
marvin
it’s weird how he swings the bat
but why does he have to throw like that’
marvin, trina, mendel, charlotte, cordelia
we’re sitting
and watching jason make errors
the most pathetical errors!
we’re watching jewish boys
who almost read latin
up, battin’
and battin’ bad!
mendel
remember sandy koufax!
you can do it if you wanna do it!
take heart from hank greenberg!
it’s not genetic
anything can be copasetic!
i think, i think
i think it can, i think it can!
marvin, trina, mendel, charlotte, cordelia
we’re sitting
and watching jason play baseball
we’re watching jason play baseball!
we’re watching jewish boys
we’re watching jewish boys
we’re watching-
slide, jason
slide, jason!
slide’
(whizzer enters)
marvin
what’s whizzer doing here’
trina
what are you doing here’
whizzer
jason asked me to come
since he asked me to come, i came
trina
just what i wanted at a little league game
my ex-husband’s ex-lover!
isn’t that what every mother dreams about
having at a little league game’
mendel
looking at whizzer is like eating trayf
cordelia
the kid was out!
charlotte
the kid was safe!
cordelia
the kid was out!
charlotte
the kid was safe!
whizzer
hey!
i love baseball
i love jason
that’s what i’m doing here
charlotte
aw, where the h-ll did they get that umpire?!
hi, whizzer
(chuckles)
whizzer
hey
marvin
look who’s here
say h-llo
whizzer
h-llo
marvin
you’re looking sweeter than a donut
whizzer
marvin
marvin
whizzer
whizzer
he’s still queer?
marvin
am i queer?
trina
i don’t know!
mendel
does it matter?
marvin
it’s been so long since i could tell
move in front of me
i wanna see the hair line!
c’mon, c’mon
sit in front of me
it gives me pleasure to see the hair line!
since it’s the only
physical imperfection i can find
i wanna see it!
i wanna touch it!
i wanna run my hands through it!
whizzer, trina, mendel, charlotte, cordelia
we’re sitting
and watch the kid as he misses!
we’re watching marvin throw kisses
we’re watching sixty-seven pounders
watching jewish boys in scroungers
marvin, whizzer, trina, mendel, charlotte, cordelia
watching boys feel, boys bat
boys miss, boys at-
watching jason on deck
swinging the bat!
whizzer
hey, jason
jason
oh, hi whizzer. glad you could make it!
whizzer
keep your head in the box
don’t think of a thing
keep your head in the box
your eye on the ball
take a breath, then let it out
and swing!
marvin, whizzer, trina, mendel, charlotte, cordelia
keep your head in the box
don’t think of a thing
keep your head in the box
your eye on the ball
take a breath, then let it out
and swing!
whizzer
go get ’em!
marvin
even bald, he looks good
whizzer
just remember he’s psychotic
marvin
he looks d-mn good, but he’s cheap as dirt
marvin
even maniacs can charm
which he does, so beware
marvin
and just be careful
whizzer
when he smiles that smile, avoid him
or else sound the alert!
marvin
think there’s any hope for him?
whizzer
i love jason, but this is not his venue
marvin and whizzer
how could i know, without him
my life would be boring as sh-t?
marvin
but it is
whizzer
jason! you gotta move a little closer to the plate!
marvin
oh, yes, it is-
what? he’s gonna be hit by the ball!
marvin and whizzer
please, god, don’t let me make the same mistake!
marvin, whizzer, trina, mendel, charlotte, cordelia
we’re sitting
and watching jason, the batter!
we know our cheering won’t matter!
it is the very final inning
and the other team is winning
and there’s two outs, two strikes
but the bases are loaded and-
marvin
could it be possible to see you, or to kiss you
or to give you a call
whizzer, trina, mendel, charlotte, cordelia
anything’s possible
marvin, whizzer, trina, mendel, charlotte, cordelia
jason
hit the ball!
run!
