Original Cast
How Marvin Eats His Breakfast
[MARVIN]
I love being Marvin
I love being Marvin
Marvin always eats
The finest breakfast in town
[LADIES]
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's laid the golden egg
I want some chatter and some gruel
Make me wanna drool
Try to make me hungry
Cat got your tongue?
[LADIES]
Marvin always knows the sort of answers he'll allow
[MARVIN]
I may be sly, dear, but not young
[LADIES]
"Wait until I'm older, then I'll kill you" is his one unspoken vow
[MARVIN]
I need my breakfast now
[ALL]
Everybody into the kitchen
Here comes Marvin
[LADIES]
Aiming a gun at the maid;
He shoots her head; she falls dead
[MARVIN]
O Jesus Christ, it wasn't loaded
She's an actor from the old school
And a lousy chef
I don't want miracles from heaven
Just some eggies over spinach over toast
No, I will not apologize!
She should win a prize:
"Very best emoting"
That girl can't cook
[LADIES]
Maybe she can't cook, but have you seen her milk a cow?
[MARVIN]
And I can read her like a book
[LADIES]
Marvin wouldn't read that kind of novel anyhow
[MARVIN]
I need my breakfast
Now[MARVIN]
People, people
Stop your staring
People, people, stop your staring
Get to work my breakfast isn't made yet[LADIES]
...people, people
...stop your staring
People, people, stop your staring. Get to work my breakfast isn't-[ALL]
Life is lonely
Life is rotten
[MARVIN]
And thankfully short
Thankfully short
Thankfully short
[LADIES]
Like Marvin
[ALL]
Everybody into the kitchen
Here comes
[MARVIN]
M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m...
[ALL]
Marvin!
[LADIES]
Waving his hands like a twit
He throws a fit
Then a knife
[MARVIN]
You call this breakfast on my birthday?
This is shit
This isn't breakfast
I could crack your feet
I mean for God's sake
Am I talking to the wall?
When I say breakfast
I mean food
I dreamt all night of hips and legs
Now I want some eggs:
Things I might relate to
I'm just a sprite
[LADIES]
Marvin underestimates the fear that he'll endow
[MARVIN]
I'll wait here till you get it right!
[LADIES]
Do I? Do I really? Do I really have to show you people how?
[MARVIN]
I need my breakfast
[ALL]
Now
