william finn - in the middle of the room (part i) lyrics

[gordon]
here i sit in the middle of the room
i don’t throw a fit
and i don’t start crying
nurses flit as they fiddle in the room
it’s a d-mn charade that i can’t abide
froggy came, froggy went
i resent his appearance
slicing veins, tricky shit!
that is what he said!
fact remains i could soon be dead
in the middle of my gloom
in the middle of my fright
in the middle of the room
in the middle of the night

[mimi]
here i stand in the middle of the road

[gordon]
in the middle of the room

[mimi]
and i’m waiting for a car

[gordon]
and i’m waiting for a shot

[mimi]
to come along and k!ll me

[gordon]
nurse, please!

[mimi]
people ask why i’m standing in the road

[gordon]
i’m sitting in the room

[mimi]
and i say because

[gordon]
i’m afraid of what i’ve got

[mimi]
i’m frightened he will die

[gordon]
i’ll die

[gordon/mimi]
k!ll me please, straight ahead
make me dead, get it over with

[mimi, spoken]
i just called to tell you everything’s gonna be alright

[gordon, spoken]
ma, you sound foolish

[mimi]
mother will protect
mother’s gonna fix things
anything that’s wrecked
mother’s gonna make things-

[gordon]
mother, please! say goodbye
ma, a heart to heart
when i die, you can’t fall apart

[mimi]
what a stupid thing to say
rather stab me with a knife
what an ignorant display
in the middle of your life
the middle of your
in the middle of your life

[gordon, spoken]
it is not the middle of my life, mother! i’m dying

[mimi, spoken]
you are too young to die. i will see you tomorrow
