fiddler on the roof – matchmaker lyrics
hodel:
matchmaker, matchmaker, make me a match,
find me a find, catch me a catch
matchmaker matchmaker look through your book
and make me a perfect match.
chava:
matchmaker matchmaker i’ll bring the veil,
you bring the groom, slender and pale.
bring me a ring for i’m longing to be
the envy of all i see.
hodel:
for papa, make him a scholar
chava:
for mama, make him as rich as a king,
hodel and chava:
for me, well, i wouldn’t holler if he were as handsome as anything.
matchmaker, matchmaker, make me a match,
find me a find, catch me a catch.
night after night in the dark i’m alone,
so find me a match of my own.
chava:
matchmaker matchmaker, you know that i’m
still very young, please take your time.
hodel:
up to this minute i misunderstood,
that i could get stuck for good.
both:
dear yente, see that he’s gentle.
remember, you were also a bride.
it’s not that i’m sentimental.
all three:
it’s just that i’m terrified!
matchmaker, matchmaker, plan me no plans.
i’m in no rush. maybe i’ve learned
playing with matches a girl can get burned.
so, bring me no ring,
groom me no groom,
find me no find, catch me no catch.
unless he’s a matchless match.
