This Had Better Come to a Stop Lyrics


WHIZZER: Late for dinner, late again

WHIZZER, MARVIN, AND TRINA:
Late for dinner, late again
Late for dinner, late again
Late for dinner, late, late, late, late
MARVIN:
Whizzer's supposed to always be here
Make the dinner, set to screw
That's what pretty boys should do
Check their hairlines, make the dinner
And love me

This is going nowhere and fast, Whizzer
This little thing that we have will not last
Don't feel responsible, after all it's through

WHIZZER: I'm not responsible

MARVIN:
Life can be wonderful
Isn't this wonderful?
And this had better come to a stop, Whizzer
Now, Whizzer, ciao Whizzer, bend
This had better come to an end

TRINA:
I was supposed to make the dinner
Make it pretty on his plate
Every wife should pull her weight
Have it ready, make it tasty
And love him

This had better come to a stop doctor
This has been a lousy and horrible flop

MENDEL: Don't feel responsible, after all it's through

TRINA: Who is responsible?

MENDEL:
Don't ask me questions!
I'm frightened of questions
But grateful that it's come to a stop, Trina
Smile, Trina, I'll help you mend

WHIZZER AND TRINA:
I met this man today
He wasn't very smart, but he was rich, Marvin
Which, Marvin, do you prefer I lust for?
Brains or money?

MARVIN: Brains

WHIZZER AND TRINA: Brains or money?

MARVIN: I'm not that rich, but, hell, I'm smart
Love me

WHIZZER AND TRINA: No

MARVIN: Love me, please, or break my heart

WHIZZER AND TRINA: This is all very neat

MARVIN: This is all very neat. This is all very neat.

WHIZZER AND TRNA: This is all very smart

MARVIN:
This is all very smart
This had better come to a stop, Mendel
Don't touch me, don't condescend
This had better come
This had better come to a
This, this, this, this
This had better come to an end

TRINA:
Chop, chop, chop, chop, chop
I chopped it and served his food
The asshole forced me

WHIZZER, MENDEL, AND JASON: Chop, chop, chop, chop, chop, chop, chop

TRINA: And still the bastard divorced me

WHIZZER, MENDEL, AND JASON: Chop, chop, chop, chop, chop, chop, chop

MARVIN: Late for dinner, late again

TRINA: It isn't like he said

MARVIN: Late for dinner, late again

TRINA: You probably hurt his pride

MARVIN: Late for dinner, late again

TRINA: He's got to have it all

MARVIN: Late for dinner, late again

TRINA: He's like a baby who's denied

WHIZZER, MENDEL, AND JASON: This had better come to a stop, Marvin

WHIZZER, TRINA, MENDEL, AND JASON: This has been a lousy but fabulous flop

WHIZZER: Why is it always ourselves who have to change?

MARVIN: This is incredibly boring

WHIZZER, TRINA, MENDEL, AND JASON:
You've got a temper that redefines temper
And this had better come to a stop, Marvin
Now, Marvin, ciao Marvin, bend
This had better come
This had better come to a
This, this, this
This had better come to an end

MARVIN: This had better come to an end

ALL: This had better come to an end
