original broadway cast of caroline, or change - caroline, there's extra food lyrics

[rose]
caroline, there’s extra food
sweet stuffed cabbage cooked with brisket
it’s nutritious! iron! vegetables!
bring it to your kids

[caroline]
i can’t use none, mrs. gellman
my kids don’t like it
turn they noses up
the smell

[grandma gellman, to noah]
your mother smoked too many cigarettes

[noah]
my father is a clarinet

[grandpa gellman]
you mean he plays the clarinet

[noah]
i mean he plays the clarinet
my mama was a sad bassoon
they played duets
[grandpa gellman]
she smoked those packs of cigarettes

[rose, to caroline]
tell them that cabbage is good for them
make them eat what’s good for them
they’ll get used to the smell
i did
reminds me of home
a northern smell
takes me back to ocean parkway
they’ll learn to love cabbage
i did, i did
cabbage boiled, iron beets
it makes them strong
children should be strong
and big
big, strong children
noah! noah!
he’s so shy
his mother was shy
a hug could break him
noah, darling

[grandpa gellman]
pack after pack of cigarettes
we warned her they’d harm her
she wouldn’t listen
they k!lled her
she’s dead
they k!lled her
she died
[caroline, to noah]
cancer get people when they poisoned, sick, and angry
or it get them just ’cause it get them, no reason
took my mama, same as yours
god make cancer, noah
like he make this whole world
you, me, and this washing machine
when cancer eat people
it god eating them
sometimes, god eat people
like a hungry wolf
he make this whole world as a test
cancer was your mama’s test
and her death is your test
you been tested, too

[noah]
did god make the dryer?

[caroline]
no, the devil made the dryer
everything else, god made
