where has it gone? - william finn lyrics
[marvin]
i’ve lost my joie de vivre
honey, my joie, my joie
i’ve lost my joie, where could it be?
it was my most sacred commodity
i’ve learned the [?] and central park lawn
where has it gone?
[trina]
one must appeal, where went this thing?
he has [?], angels would sing to him;
no one with wings comes near here these days
[?]
[marvin]
where is my irrepressible personality?
i remеmber i used to be fun
usеd to be won
h*ll of a son of a gun
[marvin cont., trina overlapping]
i’ve lost my joie
(he lost his joie)
it went out camping
i misplaced his joie
(he misplaced his joie)
now i’m just vamping
[both]
’cause life without joie is like dying
where has it gone?
[marvin]
first, we’ll need a drink and then we’ll need another
then we’ll have a supper and buffet
i’ve a premonition, well soon be in worse condition
eating and talking, with nothing to say
[trina]
i’m on [?]
who out there knows?
i want my guy to get dressed in his funny clothes
i want the [?] blew up the ground
he’s not around
[marvin, trina overlapping]
where is my irrepressible personality?
i remember i used to be fun
used to be won
h*ll of a son of a gun
(son of a gun)
h*ll of a son of a gun
i’m not okay
(he’s not okay)
im just a goon
(he’s just okay)
this is a face they say i’ll grow out of soon
i’ve lost my joie
(he’s lost his joie)
am i a nuisance?
the joie, i adore
(the joie, he adores)
and my fondness illusions
oh, i’ve lost my joie
[both]
it’s like dying
[marvin, trina echoing]
where has it gone?
(has it gone?)
where has it gone?
(has it gone?)
has it*
i’ve lost my joie
[both]
and my illusions
the joie, that i love
and my fondness illusions
a life without joie is like dying
[trina]
where has it gone?
[marvin]
where has it*
[both]
where has it gone?
