What Would I Do?

What Would I Do?

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
