Falsettoland / About Time Lyrics

[MENDEL]
Homosexuals
Women with children
Short insomniacs
And a teeny tiny band

Come, back in
The welcome mat is on the floor
Let's, begin
This story needs an ending

FEATURED VIDEOS

A homosexual
Father with children
One bar mitzvah that
Is scrupulously planned

[ALL]
Lovers come and lovers go
Lovers fight and sing fortissimo
Give these handsome boys a hand
Welcome to Falsettoland

[TRINA AND WHIZZER]

Nancy Reagan
Meanest and thinnest of the first
Ladies
Moves into the White House

What a world we live

[MARVIN, WHIZZER, MENDEL,

March, march, march of the
Falsettos
March of the Falsettos

[TRINA, CHARLOTTE, AND

CORDELIA]
What a world we live in

Pretty boys are in demand

[ALL]
Welcome to Falsettoland
Whee!
Whoo!
What a world we live in!
Whee!
Whoo!
What a world we live in!

[MARVIN]
It's about time, don't ya think?
It's about time to grow up, don't
ya think?
It's about time to grow up and
face the music
It's about time

Since we last spoke

Two years are waning
I'll try explaining
Just what you've missed
We called a truce
And fitfully we coexist
I'm still loose
She's still with the psychiatrist
So I don't have a psychiatrist
Except on the Jewish holidays
But I still have my son on the
weekends
Just on the weekends
And some very good friends
But I don't have a lover anymore
Oh my God
When am I gonna get over this?
When am I gonna get over this?
When am I gonna get over this?

[All sigh]

Welcome to Falsettoland

[MARVIN]
It's about time, don't ya think
It's about time to grow up, don't
ya think
It's about time to grow up and
face the music
It's about time
One day I'd like to be
As mature as my son, who Is
twelve and a half
And this tall!
That's all I'd like to be
That's all!
It's about growing up, getting
older, living on a lover's shoulder
Learning love is not a crime
It's about time
It's about time
It's about time
It's about—

Are Charlotte and Cordelia named

anywhere in the second act?

Genius Answer 2 contributors

No. They are named by the script,

musical.
