This song is where like the title says, Marvin and Whizzer go on three different dates where they rebuild a more healthy relationship than the one they had during ‘March of the Falsettos’.
[CORDELIA]
Three dates with Marvin and Whizzer - a true story
[WHIZZER]
Hello
[MARVIN]
Hello
[WHIZZER]
Marvin?
[MARVIN]
Yep
How are you?
[WHIZZER]
It’s been a long time
[MARVIN]
As you probably know, Jason is getting bar mitzvah’d
And he wants you to be a special person on that day
What do you say, Whizzer?
Do it for the kid, Whizzer
Anything I did, Whizzer
Throw it away
Throw it away
Are you still there?
[WHIZZER]
I’m right here, can--
[MARVIN]
Can I maybe see you?
[WHIZZER]
I am still here and breathing
I can’t forget when it was bad
[MARVIN]
Let me try to put it right
[WHIZZER]
When?
[MARVIN]
How about-
[WHIZZER]
WHEN
[MARVIN]
How about-
I’ll pick you up in two hours!
[MARVIN & WHIZZER]
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight!
[COREDELIA]
Not so dressy
[CHARLOTTE]
Please don’t quote this
[BOTH]
We can’t stand your trying
[CORDELIA]
Here’s your last chance for happiness!
[CHARLOTTE]
Oh, but he’ll kill you
He’ll kill you
[CORDELIA]
All you have to do is
Be nice
[CHARLOTTE]
Kill you
[CORDELIA]
Be nice
[CHARLOTTE]
Kill you
[CORDELIA]
Be nice
[CHARLOTTE]
Kill you
[CORDELIA]
Be nice
[CHARLOTTE]
Kill you
[WHIZZER]
Life is funny, a-ha funny
Life plays on, it's a-ha funny jokes
After all, things might turn out okay
I’m glad Marvin’s so agreeable
'cause he’ll have to pay
What he did to me
I recall it like
Yes-ter-day
[JASON, spoken]
The first date, at the ballpark
[MARVIN]
Are you sure this is where you wanna come?
[MARVIN & WHIZZER]
Oh, say can you see, by the dawn’s early light
[They jeer at the game]
[MARVIN]
After he left hm, well
After I kicked him out
Life was like sauerkraut:
Good if you put it on a hotdog
Hell, I want
More than just a hotdog
I want more
Life’s a bore without him
[WHIZZER]
I want the underdog to win
[MARVIN]
That’s not our team, just keep quiet
[WHIZZER]
Well, then go ‘other team’
[?] Other team
[MARVIN]
Stop it
Stop it
Why are people hitting us
Why are people hitting us
Stop it
Stop it
Stop it
Stop it
[CORDELIA]
They’re on their second date
First one went so great
They thought they’d try another
[CHARLOTTE]
Hey, sorry that we’re late
But we’re here
[ALL]
Oh, say can you-
[UMPIRE]
Play ball
[MARVIN]
He’s makin’ me pay
But hey no big deal
[LESBIANS]
Hiya Will, now Hiya Sue...
Okay, no big deal
You’re with us and we’re with you
That’s what matters
[ALL]
That’s what matters
That’s what matters
Life is funny, a-ha funny
Life plays on, its haha funny jokes
[MARVIN & WHIZZER]
God, it's great to
Be back with these folks
[LESBIANS]
It feels nice to be escorted
By these funny men
[ALL]
We’re double-dating homosexuals
Once again
[JASON, spoken]
The third date
[MARVIN & WHIZZER]
Who’d believe
We’d be here, nude, in bed
[MARVIN]
Nude instead
Of at each other’s throats
[WHIZZER]
Wearing suits and overcoats
[MARVIN & WHIZZER]
Life is funny, haha funny
[MENDEL, spoken]
Oh no, oh no-
Trina, TRINA
[MARVIN & WHIZZER]
Life is goody, rooty tooty
[MENDEL]
Trina, I can’t jump! I can’t jump!
[MARVIN & WHIZZER, laughing in the background]
[MARVIN & WHIZZER]
Life is really quite ridiculous
[MENDEL]
Where’s my joie de vivre?
