[Mendel]
Hello?
[Trina]
Dr. Mendel, please
[Mendel]
Yep, this is Mendel Weisenbachfeld
[Trina]
Dr. Mendel, vis-à-vis what Marvin did
Or rather, hasn't done
[Mendel]
Trina, how are you?
[Trina]
You must exorcise a devil
'Cause it inhabits Marvin's son
[Mendel]
Uh-huh
Uh-huh
[Trina]
Please come to our house
And talk a bit with Jason
It's a slight exaggeration
But he's sick in the head
Oh, sure
Sometimes, you'll think he's wonderful
But he's wild
I'm sure he's Marvin's child!
[Jason]
What should I say to the man?
Should I be mean to the man?
[Trina]
Just be yourself
[Jason]
I'll be myself?
[Trina]
Stop asking questions, be yourself
[Jason]
I'll be myself!
[Trina]
Don't be disgusting, be yourself!
[Jason]
Hello to my house
So good of you to travel
On account of my unraveling
Now let's eat some food
[Mendel]
Let's talk
[Trina]
I think, before the food gets cold
[Mendel]
Time to jaw
First, I'll extend my paw
I think she's holding it so tenderly
I'll probably faint
If so
I'd rather die in this position
Than remain the saint
You think
You know
I'm not
Although
I must be showing better-than-the-norm restraint
[Trina, Mendel, and Jason]
Oh, what a lovely table
Such a romantic table
Knives in place
Lots of space
To spread out and eat
Notice how our eyes discreetly
Please come to our house (please come to our house)
The dinner's on the table (the dinner's on the table)
We will talk if we are able to (we will talk with you)
But probably we won't
We sit
[Mendel]
The kid looks pretty miserable
[Jason]
Uninspired
[Mendel]
Ugh, ain't that the truth?
[Trina, Mendel and Jason]
We're tired!
[Mendel]
I think the room looks just a wee bit small
[Trina]
This girl agrees
[Mendel and Jason]
Adieu
[Trina]
I'll wait outside
And hold the food
[Mendel]
I do not eat at all at times like these
[Trina]
The worst is through
[Mendel]
There's work to do
[Trina]
I'll wait
[Mendel]
She'll wait
[Jason]
They'll wait
[Trina]
I'll wait for you
[Jason]
Mr. Mendel
I get apoplexy thinking of my father
I resemble him in far too many ways
His sad demeanor
The way he acts the swine
At least his room is cleaner than mine
Is it fatal?
Do you see real similarities between us?
He and Whizzer live like
Well, I think it's clear
What do I do?
What do I say?
How do I ask?
What do I hope for?
Is it my mind?
Love isn't free
If love isn't blind
What do I see?
[Mendel]
Stop! Look around you
No one's screaming at you
So you feel alright for about ten minutes
If you feel alright for ten minutes, feel alright for twenty minutes
Feel alright for forty minutes!
Drop it and smile
Why don't you feel alright for the rest of your life?
Why don't you feel alright for the rest of your life?
Why don't you feel alright for the rest of your life?
[Jason]
Is this therapy?
[Trina]
Chop, chop, chop, chop, chop
I chopped it
It's a gourmet version of chicken merengo
Took me all day
I'll say 't was worth the time
I lie
[Marvin]
Why is he always here?
[Whizzer]
The psychiatrist returning
Returning
Five sessions later
[Mendel]
Try to forget all things homely
Try to forget all things snide
Nothing's as good as you recall
Count what's good, then divide
If you count, it's alright
You can figure out the world
You can add and subtract at will
You can cover up the past
You can kill the pain
Very easily
[Jason]
Is this therapy?
[Marvin, Trina, Whizzer, and Mendel]
Right, this is therapy!
[Jason]
So scram!
Mr. Mendel
As regarding your intentions to my mother
Are they everything a woman would desire?
Her hand is ready
It only needs a ring
I'll buy confetti
And sing
I'm embarrassed
It's not my responsibility to ask you
But I wonder if it's ever crossed your mind?
[Mendel]
What do I say?
Where do I look?
Why do I laugh?
How do I answer?
Is it my mind?
Love isn't free
If love isn't blind
What do I see?
[Jason]
Stop!
Look around you
A lot of nice furniture
Someone's bringing you dinner
Someone brought you your lunch
Someone's washing your laundry
Washing your socks
Jesus Christ!
Why don't you feel alright for the rest of your life?
Why don't you feel alright for the rest of your life?
[Jason, Mendel]
Why don't you (why don't I)
Feel alright for the rest of
My life? (Your life?)
Whoo!
[All]
Why don't you feel alright for the rest of your life?
Why don't you feel alright for the rest of your life?
Why don't you feel alright for the rest of your life?
[Marvin, Trina and Whizzer, Jason and Mendel]
Feel, feel, feel (feel alright for the rest of your life)
Feel, feel, feel (feel alright for the rest of your life)
Feel, feel, feel (feel alright for the rest of your life)
Feel, feel, feel (feel alright for the rest of your life)
[Jason and Mendel, all]
Feel alright for the rest of your
Rest of your
Life!
