[whizzer, spoken]
a day in falsettoland
dr. mendel at work
[caroline, spoken] [mendel]
you go out on the street
and there’s all these
people asking for a handout
you go home, you open your mail
and it’s full of
people asking for a donation i don’t get it
then, you turn on the tv
and they want money for i don’t understand
starving children in ethiopia!
i just want to be left alone! in the ’60s, everyone had heart
[mendel]
in the ’60s, we were all a part of the same team
in the ’60s, we had a new world to start
could this–
oh god, don’t say it is–
could this be the new world we started?
here i sit, brokenhearted and…
[caroline, spoken]
do i wait for the promotion, or do i take this ibm job?
[mendel, spoken]
yeah, well, caroline hmm
[mendel]
i don’t get it
i’ve been left behind
half my patients: yuppie pagans
modeled on the ronald reagans
now the world is too pathetic
and i don’t get it at all
[caroline, spoken]
oh, i’m in a deep quandary about my career
what do you think i should do?
[mendel, spoken]
time’s up!
[caroline, spoken]
aww
[caroline exits.]
[mendel]
at least there’s trina at home
trina in bed
trina obsessing
and sort of caressing
my head with her feet
i once thought it was sweet
but i don’t anymore
now i just snore
’cause i’m so exhausted
listening as those yuppie farts complain
listening as their shallow hearts explain
their lives
[charlotte, spoken]
trina works it out
[trina]
marvin’s back with whizzer
just like how it was
if i don’t like whizzer
it’s because my ex sure does
why should that affect me?
sometimes i’m a lout
mendel serenades, and jason calms me
why should i be wilting
when their precious love is not in doubt?
work it out!
[jason, spoken]
the neighbors relax
[cordelia]
how was your day at the hospital?
[charlotte]
unbelievable
what is that smell?
[cordelia]
nouvelle bar mitzvah cuisine
i’ve been practicing
cuisine, bar mitzvah, nouvelle
well?
[mendel, spoken]
hi, honey
[trina]
hi, honey
[mendel]
how was your day?
[trina]
it was terrible
did you hear that marvin’s back with whizzer?
marvin’s back with whizzer!
[mendel]
drop it, sweetheart
give it up
you know i love you
honey, sweetheart, what’s the matter?
i don’t get it
why don’t you let go?
[trina]
after the first mile, i’ll be okay
i cannot let go until we have this bar mitzvah
[mendel]
isn’t it enough
i want you every night?
[trina, laughing]

[mendel]
every other night?
[trina, laughing]
huh huh huh huh huh
[mendel]
every third night?
everything will be alright
[trina]
everything will be alright
[mendel & trina]
everything will be alright
[cordelia]
how was your day
at the hospital?
[charlotte]
it was wonderful
for the first time in months
n0body died
[charlotte]
there were just
heart attacks and gallstones
light bulbs up the ass
fake appendicitis which is gas
which i diagnosed

when you play me, you win
[whizzer]

[whizzer]
something stinks in how you play
[marvin]

i’m so pathetically bad?
[whizzer]

serve with force
i’ll attack
and, of course
i will win
just give in
to bliss
and kiss…
[marvin] [whizzer]
