2016 Broadway Cast of Falsettos
Thrill of First Love
[WHIZZER]
Hang up all your clothes
[MARVIN]
Whizzer begs
[WHIZZER]
Whizzer knows
[MARVIN]
Shave your legs
[WHIZZER]
Make me sick
[MARVIN]
You're a prick
[WHIZZER]
God you're impossible
We've been together for nine months
[MARVIN]
Ten months
[WHIZZER]
Nine months
[MARVIN]
Ten months
[WHIZZER]
Nine months
[MARVIN]
Ten months
We are the salt of the bourgeoisie
[WHIZZER]
While I put the steak in
[MARVIN]
I bring home the bacon
[BOTH]
And we're proud to say we love it how we
[MARVIN, WHIZZER]
Don't (Won't)
[WHIZZER, spoken]
Won't.
[MARVIN, spoken]
Don't.
[WHIZZER, spoken]
Won't.
[MARVIN, spoken]
Don't.
[BOTH]
Agree
[WHIZZER]
Everything he owns is vile
Marvin doesn't care a whit
Marvin doesn't share
My devotion to
Style
Men from France can cancel a debt
Men in cufflinks make me forget my name
I intend to upset
This regrettable game
[MARVIN]
Whizzer takes me by the neck
[WHIZZER]
What is this, wash and wear?
[MARVIN]
Whizzer has unlimited knowledge of
Dreck
[WHIZZER]
Send me flowers
[MARVIN]
Mention is made
[WHIZZER]
Make them roses
[MARVIN]
Attention is paid
In full
[WHIZZER]
See how quickly he sours
[MARVIN]
When he pushes, I pull
[WHIZZER]
Hang up your clothes, Marvin
Breeding shows, Marvin
[MARVIN]
I was rich
He was horny
[WHIZZER]
We fit like a glove
[MARVIN]
Close your eyes, Whizzer
[WHIZZER]
Passion dies
But I'd kill for that thrill of first
Love
[BOTH]
We ask for passion at all times
We stand to passion and drink this toast
[WHIZZER]
Still it's awfully trying
[MARVIN]
And we're not denying
[BOTH]
That of all the lesser passions
We like fighting most
[WHIZZER]
Nyah!
[MARVIN]
Whizzer screws too much to see
What a joy's monogamy
What a joy is saving his joys
For one man
[WHIZZER]
Leave me
[MARVIN]
Love me
[WHIZZER]
Ha, don't be a fool
[MARVIN]
Want me
[WHIZZER]
Feed me
[MARVIN]
No one's so cruel
And cheap
[WHIZZER]
What I love I devour
[MARVIN]
What you love you devour
What I covet I keep
Isn't that right, Whizzer?
Let's both fight, Whizzer!
[WHIZZER]
I was trained in karate
[MARVIN]
I'm best when I cheat
So I'll cheat, Whizzer, and I'll shove
And I'll kill for that thrill of first
Love
[WHIZZER]
We've been together for nine months
[MARVIN]
Ten months
[WHIZZER]
Nine months
[MARVIN, spoken]
We've been together for ten months!
[WHIZZER]
Nine months
[MARVIN]
Ten months
[BOTH]
In fact we've almost survived a year
[WHIZZER]
True, but who is counting?
[BOTH]
We're too busy mounting
A display of our affection
That is so sincere
[30 measure interlude]
[BOTH]
Passion dies
Passion dies!
[WHIZZER, MARVIN]
I would kill for that thrill (I would kill for that thrill)
Of first love (Of first love)
I would kill for that thrill (I would kill for that thrill)
Of first love
[BOTH]
I would kill for that thrill of first
Love
Love
Love!
