stephen sondheim - maybe they're magic lyrics

Loading...

[baker]
magic beans!

[baker’s wife]
no one would have given him more
for this creature

[baker]
are we to dispel this curse through deceit?

[baker’s wife]
if you know
what you want
then you go
and you find it
and you get it-

[baker]
home

[baker’s wife]
do we want a child or not?

and you give
and you take
and you bid
and you bargain
or you live
to regret it

[baker]
will you please go home?

[baker’s wife]
there are rights and wrongs
and in-betweens-
no one waits
when fortune intervenes

and maybe they’re really magic
who knows?

why you do
what you do
that’s the point:
all the rest of it
is chatter

[baker]
look at her. she’s crying

[baker’s wife]
if the thing you do
is pure in intent
if it’s meant
and it’s just a little bent
does it matter?

[baker]
yes

[baker’s wife]
no, what matters is that
everyone tells tiny lies
what’s important, really is, the size

only three more tries and we’ll have our prize
when the end’s in sight
you’ll realize:
if the end is right
it justifies
the beans!
