How Marvin Eats His Breakfast (1985)
[LADIES, spoken]
How Marvin eats his breakfast
How Marvin eats his breakfast
How Marvin eats his breakfast
[MARVIN]
I love being Marvin!
I love being Marvin!
Marvin turned fourteen today
And eats the very best breakfast in town
[LADIES, spoken]
How Marvin eats his breakfast
[MARVIN]
Everybody into the kitchen
Here comes
Marvin
Banging his groin with his fist
[LADIES]
He mumbles in
To insist:
[MARVIN]
No one looks busy in this kitchen
And my breakfast isn't ready
And my stomach aches
I mean specifically the maid
Who is reclining like she laid the golden egg
I want some chatter and some gruel
Make me want to drool
Try to make me hungry
