Lyrics

[MARVIN] What would I do If I had not met you? Who would I blame my life on? Once I was told That all men get what they deserve Who the hell then threw this curve? There are no answers But who would I be If you had not been my friend? You're the only one One out of a thousand others Only one my child would allow When I'm having fun You're the one I wanna talk to Where have you been? Where are you now? Who would I be If I had not loved you? How would I know what love is? God only knows, too soon I'll remember your faults Meanwhile, though, it's tears and schmaltz There are no answers But what would I do If you had not been my friend? [WHIZZER] All your life you've wanted men And when you got it up to have them Who knew it could end your life? [MARVIN] I left my kid and left my wife To be with you To be insulted by such handsome men [WHIZZER] Do you regret? [MARVIN] I'd do it again I'd like to believe that I'd do it again And again and again And What more can I say? [WHIZZER] What more can I say? [MARVIN] How am I to face tomorrow? [BOTH] After being screwed out of today Tell me what's in store [MARVIN] Yes, I'd beg or steal or borrow If I could hold you for One hour more [WHIZZER] One hour more [MARVIN] One hour more [WHIZZER] One hour more [BOTH] One hour, one hour more [MARVIN] What would I do [WHIZZER] What would I do [MARVIN] If I had not seen you? [WHIZZER] If I had not seen you? [BOTH] Who would I feast my eyes on? Once I was told That good men get better with age [MARVIN] We're just gonna skip that stage There are no answers But what would I do If you hadn't been my friend? [WHIZZER] There are no answers But what would I do... [MARVIN] No simple answers But what would I do If you had not been My friend? My friend My friend [Whizzer exits and the rest of the cast enters.]
