MARVIN
One, two
One, two, three
One, two, three, four
Marvin is a boy who has giddy seizures
He’s laughing all the time
Marvin is a boy who has giddy seizures
Sometimes they’re fatal
When he turns upside down like a ladle pouring soup
He’s a veritable fool
Marvin in my very best friend in school
It’s me… and Marvin
Lately I’ve been thinking maybe Marvin needs attention of a private sort
Maybe this whole seizure thing something he invented or is it medicinal
Should his mother be blamed?
ALL
Marvin has a something that most everybody needs
So that we cannot ever be embarrassed
MARVIN
Marvin is my very best friend in school
And I’m embarrassed and ashamed, oh!
MARVIN’S HIGH SCHOOL SWEETHEART
Marvin!
MISS GOLDBERG

ALL BUT MARVIN
Oh, Marvin
Hey, Marvin
MARVIN

ALL BUT MARVIN/ MARVIN

He needs love

MARVIN
Marvin holds his breath
His face is underwater
But that’s not a seizure
ALL BUT MARVIN
Woah…
MARVIN
Marvin talks of death
He imitates a slaughter
But that’s not a seizure
ALL BUT MARVIN
Oh…
MARVIN
When he begins to shriek like a person and his eyes turn an ordinary fizz
Nothing’s exactly like I say it is
But hey! That’s a seizure!
MARVIN’S HIGH SCHOOL SWEETHEART
