We got sunlight on the sand,

We got moonlight on the sea,

We got mangos and bananas
You can pick right off a tree,
We got volleyball and ping-pong
And a lot of dandy games!
What ain't we got?
We ain't got dames!
We get packages from home,
We get movies, we get shows,
We get speeches from our skipper
And advice from Tokyo Rose,
We get letters doused with perfume
We get dizzy from the smell!
What don't we get?
We know damn well!
We have nothin' to put on a clean white suit for
What we need is what there ain't no substitute for...
There is nothin' like a dame,
Nothin' in the world,
There is nothin' you can name
That is anything like a dame!
We feel restless, we feel blue,
We feel lonely, and in brief,
We feel ev'ry kind of feelin',
But the feeling of relief
We feel hungry as the wolf felt
When he met Red Hiding-hood
What don't we feel?
We don't feel good!
Lots of things in life are beautiful, but brother,
There is one particular thing that is nothin' whatsoever
In any way, shape or form like any other.
There is nothin' like a dame,
Nothin' in the world,

There is nothin' you can name

That is anything like a dame!
Nothin' else is built the same,
Nothin' in the world
As the soft and wavy frame
Like the silhouette of a dame!
There is absolutely nothin' like the frame of a dame.
So suppose a dame ain't right
Or completely free from flaws,
Or as faithful as a bird dog,
Or as kind as Santa Claus,
It's a waste of time to worry
Over things that they have not,
Be thankful for the things they got!
There is nothin' you can name
That is anythin' like a dame!
There are no books like a dame,
And nothin' looks like a dame.
There are no drinks like a dame,
And nothin' thinks like a dame,
Nothin' acts like a dame,
Or attracts like a dame.
There ain't a thing that's wrong with any man here
That can't be cured by putting him near
A girly, womanly, female, feminine dame!

MARIA

A miracle would happen -I know now I was right.

BOTH SING
Today the minutes seem like hours, the hours go so
slowly
And still the sky is light
The moon burns bright and makes this endless day endless night
Tonight

[Rolf:]
You wait, little girl, on an empty stage
For fate to turn the light on
Your life, little girl, is an empty page
That men will want to write on
[Liesl:]
To write on

[Rolf:]
You are sixteen going on seventeen
Baby, it's time to think
Better beware, be canny and careful
Baby, you're on the brink
You are sixteen going on seventeen
Fellows will fall in line
Eager young lads and rogues and cads
Will offer you food and wine
Totally unprepared are you
To face a world of men
Timid and shy and scared are you
Of things beyond your ken
You need someone older and wiser
Telling you what to do
I am seventeen going on eighteen
I'll take care of you
[Liesl:]
I am sixteen going on seventeen
I know that I'm naive
Fellows I meet may tell me I'm sweet
And willingly I believe
I am sixteen going on seventeen
Innocent as a rose
Bachelor dandies, drinkers of brandies
What do I know of those
Totally unprepared am I
To face a world of men
Timid and shy and scared am I
Of things beyond my ken
I need someone older and wiser
Telling me what to do
You are seventeen going on eighteen
I'll depend on you

[BAKER'S WIFE]
You've changed.
You're daring.
You're different in the woods.
More sure.
More sharing.
You're getting us through the woods.
If you could seeYou're not the man who started,
And much more openhearted
Than I knew
You to be.
[BAKER]
It takes two.
I thought one was enough,
It's not true:
It takes two of us
You came through
When the journey was rough.
It took you.
It took two of us.
It takes care.
It takes patience and fear and despair
To change.
Though you swear
To change,
Who can tell if you do?
It takes two.
[BAKER'S WIFE]
You've changed.
You're thriving.
There's something about the woods.
Not just
Surviving.
You're blossoming in the woods.
At home I'd fear
We'd stay the same forever.
And then out hereYou're passionate
Charming,
Considerate,
Clever-

[BAKER]
It takes one
To begin, but then once
You've begun,
It takes two of you.
It's no fun,
But what needs to be done
You can do
When there's two of you.
If I dare,
It's because I'm becoming
Aware of us
As a pair of us,
Each accepting a share
Of what's there.
[BOTH]
We've changed.
We're strangers.
I'm meeting you in the woods.
Who minds
What dangers?
I know we'll get past the woods.
And once we're past,
Let's hope the changes last
Beyond woods,
Beyond witches and slippers and hoods,
Just the two of usBeyond lies,
Safe at home with our beautiful prize,
Just the few of us.
It takes trust.
It takes just
A bit more
And we're done.
We want four,
We had none.
We've got three.
We need one.
It takes two.

[LEADING PLAYER]
You look frenzied, you look frazzled
Peaked as any alp
Flushed and rushed and razzle-dazzled
Dry your lips, damp your scalp
Now I can see you're in a rut in
Disarray
And I'm not one to butt in
But in fact I must say
If you'd take it easy, trust awhile
Don't look blue, don't look back
You'll pull through in just awhile
'Cause you're on th right track
[PIPPIN]
On the right track
On the right track
On the right track
On the right track
[LEADING PLAYER]
Uh huh Uh huh
Take it easy, sonny
Take it easy, sonny
Take it easy
[LEADING PLAYER]

Why look flurried

[PIPPIN]
Flustered
[LEADING PLAYER]
Keep those
[PIPPIN]
Hopes aloft
[LEADING PLAYER]
Keep cool as custard
[PIPPIN]
Trying hard
[LEADING PLAYER]
Stepping soft
[BOTH]
There's no trick to staying sensible
Despite each cul-de-sac
'Cause each step's indispensable
When you're on the right track
[PIPPIN]
On the right track
On the right track
On the right track
On the right track
[LEADING PLAYER]
Uh huh Uh huh
Take it easy, sonny
Take it easy, sonny
Take it easy
[LEADING PLAYER]
Many when things get dank will feel their grip go
We stay tranquil, spirits high, pulses low
[PIPPIN]
But! What I've left behind looks trifling
What's ahead looks black

Am I doomed to spend my life a-lingering on

[LEADING PLAYER]
Lingering on
[PIPPIN]
Just lingering on
[BOTH]
Malingering on the right
[PIPPIN]
Oh, I'll never find it.... never.... never....never....
never!
[LEADING PLAYER]
Easy baby...
You're on the right track!

Lift up your head, wash off your mascara

Here, take my Kleenex, wipe that lipstick away
Show me your face clean as the mornin'
I know things were bad but now they're okay
Suddenly Seymour is standing beside you
You don't need no makeup, Don't have to pretend
Suddenly Seymour, is here to provide you
With sweet understanding, Seymour's your friend

Nobody ever treated me kindly

Daddy left early, mamma was poor
I'd meet a man and I'd follow him blindly
He'd snap his fingers me I'd say, "Sure"
Suddenly, Seymour is standing beside me
He don't give me orders, he don't condescend
Suddenly, Seymour is here to provide me
Sweet understanding, Seymour's my friend
Tell me this feeling lasts till forever
Tell me the bad times are clean washed away
Please understand that it's still strange and frightening
Both losers like I've been it's so hard to say
Suddenly, Seymour
(Suddenly, Seymour)
He purified me
(He purified you)
Suddenly, Seymour
(Suddenly, Seymour)
Showed me I can
(Yes, you can)
Learn how to be more
The girl that's inside me
(The girl that's inside you)
With sweet understanding
(With sweet understanding)
With sweet understanding
(With sweet understanding)
Seymour your man
(Seymour is your man)
