William Finn - Making a Home lyrics

MENDEL AND 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 a**ume Building a life MENDEL Shaping a room MENDEL AND 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 I hope it runs away MENDEL So do I JASON So do I MENDEL AND TRINA Afternoons we make hors d'oeuvres After afternoons, we receive WHIZZER We deceive MENDEL AND TRINA This is the price WHIZZER This is the price WHIZZER, MENDEL, AND TRINA Making believe What it needs is people Men and women talking Men and women thinking out loud TRINA Should he love me? MENDEL Should she love me? WHIZZER Should he love me? MENDEL AND TRINA Yes, we love the bed Yes, we love to fight the unknown TRINA Baking the bread MENDEL Sharpening knives WHIZZER, MENDEL, AND TRINA Forging ahead MENDEL Loving our- TRINA Liking our- WHIZZER AND JASON Hating our- WHIZZER, JASON, MENDEL, AND TRINA Lives WHIZZER, MENDEL, AND TRINA Making a home Making a home MENDEL AND TRINA Making a home
