William Finn Making A Home
[MENDEL & TRINA]
Welcome to our humble place
We're concerned with setting a tone
With filling the space
Making a home
[MENDEL]
She becomes a happy wife
[TRINA]
He decides the role to assume
Building a life
[MENDEL]
Shaping a room
[MENDEL & TRINA]
What it needs is people
Men and women talking
Men and women thinking out loud
How far to go?
Visit when you please
You are not required to phone
We'll buy the cheese
God bless our home
[TRINA]
Books abound
To show we read
The dog's been flea'd
And sent outside to play
I hope it runs away
[MENDEL]
So do I
[JASON]
So do I
[MENDEL & TRINA]
Afternoons, we make hors d'oeuvres
After afternoons, we receive
[WHIZZER]
We deceive
[MENDEL & TRINA]
This is the price
[WHIZZER]
This is the price
[WHIZZER, MENDEL, & TRINA]
Making believe
What it needs is people
Men and women laughing
Men and women thinking out loud
[TRINA]
Should he love me?
[MENDEL]
Should she love me?
[WHIZZER]
Could he love me?
[MENDEL & TRINA]
Yes, we love the bed
Yes, we love to fight the unknown
[TRINA]
Baking the bread
[MENDEL]
Sharpening knives
[WHIZZER, MENDEL, & TRINA]
Forging ahead
[MENDEL]
Loving our—
[TRINA]
Liking our—
[WHIZZER & JASON]
Hating our—
[WHIZZER, JASON, MENDEL, & TRINA]
Lives
