"O Little Town Of Bethlehem"

   
O little town of Bethlehem,
How still we see thee lie;
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by;
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
The everlasting light.
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight.
The angels' voices singing
Proclaim the early morning!
And children pure and happy
A-wait the break of dawn
While charity stands watching
And faithfuls wipe the door
The dark night wakes the glory bricks
And Christmas comes once more

"I Wonder As I Wander"

   
I wonder as I wander out under the sky
How .Jesus, the Savior
Did come for to die
For poor only people
Like you and like I
I wonder as I wander out under the sky
If Jesus had wanted far anything
Star in the sky or a bird on the wing...
Or all of God's angels
And Heaven for to sing
He surely could help it
For He was the king
I wander as I wander out under the sky
How Jesus, the Savior
Did come for to die
For poor only people
Like you and like I
I wonder as I wander out under the sky

"Love Is Like A New Born Child"

   
Love's beginning
Hearts enchanted
Full of bright new dreams
But we can't take love for granted
For to me it seems
A new love is like a new born child
Tender and sweet and a-need of care
Precious indeed
Is the lave we share
Like a new born child
Like a tiny baby
Till it grows up strong
You lullaby a new love
With a happy song
Because a new love
Is like a new born child
Cherished adored
To hold it close
Give it your love
And just let it grow
And grow to be something sure
Something grand
Something heaven must have planned
Like a tiny new born child
Like a lovely
New born child...

"Folk Monologue / Value"

   
Can I get my glass of tea? Mmm, nothing like it!
At this time I would like very much to do a Folksong. Since Folksongs,
I think are still popular today. Uhm, this one is in Latvian and it's
from Latvia. And it's about this Tahitian girl who uhm, had this lover.
And then one day this lover decides that he doesn't like her anymore
and likes her sister better. So she decided that the only thing to do
naturally was to kill herself, see. So one day, oh, was very nice out
about 75 degrees, and she was taking this walk down to the river to
drown when she, she tripped over this rock see. And uhm, oh it was
awful I mean, she broke her glasses, she scrapped her knees. And uhm,
just at this minute the lover and the sister happen to come by in a
taxicab. So, see they saw her on the floor and she, having an
astigmatism in her left eye, she thought that it was a wild bore. So,
she figured oh boy I'd better get down to the river fast to drown so
she runs down there and what do you know the river was frozen. So I
mean she just stood there you know and she went tchhh, like that. Tch,
and uhm, because, I mean, she couldn't do it that day. See, it was a
small town they only had one river, so. Anyway than she figured, oh
it's getting late, better get home cause her mamma would be worried
and would kill her if she was late for supper you know. So, I mean,
she gets up and she starts walking around home and she bumps in to
this guy, and what do you know, he turns out to be an optometrist.
And just happens to happen to have her "suscription". So, anyway, uh?
Oh, I'm sorry "suBscription".So anyway, I mean, she's I don't want
you to think that this is one of those Hollywood-like stories: She
gets the glasses and sees happily ever after. I mean, this is, you
know, no like that. I mean she had to pay for the glasses just like
you and me, she ... well, oh well, I mean, I don't want you to think
that I'm lying but she did get about a dollar fifty off, dollar
sixty-five? So anyway, uhm... this guy (Oh) turned out to be very
nice and he even told her where she could find another river.
So, I'll tell you the truth, this girl was a real creep. I mean,
you know who would wanna sing a song about her? I mean, her sister
was really much nicer. And uhm, I mean, I, I think she came from
a better family.

[Singing]
Call me a boob
Call me a schlemiel
Call me a brain with a missing wheel
Call me what you will
But nonetheless I'm still
In love with Harold Mingert
It's not because he has a car
Arnie Fleisher has a car
And a car is just a car
But if Harold didn't have a car too his name
I guess I'd love him just the same
Call me what you will
But nonetheless I'm still
In love with Harold Mingert
And it's not because he has a wealthy family
Arnie Fleischer has a wealthy family
But money isn't everything
And if Harold didn't have a car too his name
I know I'd love him just the same
But sometimes I ask myself why than
Do I than love Harold Mingert
Harold isn't handsome or clever or smart
And I don't find romance and a dance in his heart
The only answers I can think about
Harold Mingert's money and Harold Mingert's car
Call me what you will
But non the less I'm still
In love with Harold Mingert
Also Arnie Fleisher!

"People (From A Happening In Central Park)"

   
[Speaking]
At this time I should like very much to thank my wonderful conductor.
And what he does is this...It's sort of... It reminds me of an old
Mae West picture...uh... I don't know how I made this association,
but...you see, he makes this orchestra sound as if there were 70 pieces.
And it reminds me the scene where Mae was teaching in a classroom
and she said: [imitating Mae West's voice] "One an' one is two...two
an' two is four... four an' four makes ten, if you have worked right!"
And I would also like to say that I'm thrilled and delighted...I can't
believe there's 128,000 people out there... "FEENTASTIC!" Ah! Ah!
Thank you... But I would like to thank you, you lovely bunch of...

People, people who need people,
Are the luckiest people in the world.
We're children, needing other children,
And yet letting a grown-up pride,
Hide all the need inside,
Acting more like children than children.
Lovers are very special people,
They're the luckiest people in the world;
With one person, one very special person;
A feeling deep in your soul
Says you are half now you're whole,
No more hunger and thirst,
But first be a person who needs people,
People who need people...
Are the luckiest people in the world...
With one person, one very special person;
No more hunger and thirst,
First be a person who needs people,
People who need people...
Are the luckiest people in the world...

"Marty The Martian"

   
Ah, okay!
The hills are alive
And it's pretty frightening
The sun goes down
The moon comes out
The people gather 'round and we all begin to shout
Ech... Mud!
You better not cry
You better not shout
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is dead
I was sitting on a hill
And I was looking at the sky
And that's when a strange
Looking object caught my eye
I tried to run away
Burt I couldn't even stand
And the great big flying saucer
Came in to land
then the cabin opened up
And a handsome man got out
And he was so good looking that I
Wanted to shout
He was smiling right at me
I was falling for his charms
And only one thing bothered me
He had eleven arms
Then he started in to talk
The stranger from the stars
He said my name is Marty
And I come from Mars
So I listened while he told
The story of his life
He said he'd come here
Straight from Mars
To find a wife
I said Marty tell me this
I said Marty tell me true
How come you got eleven arms
When I got only two
but the martian gave a wink
And he told me with a shrug
We need them all to hug and hug
It sounded good to me
So I said I'd be his wife
And fly around with him
For the rest of my life
He walked back up the hill
We both were feeling grand
yes, we both back to his flying saucer
Hand in hand in hand in hand in hand...
In haaaaaaaaaand!

"Natural Sounds"

   
My heart would make
Natural sounds
With you my love
The happy sound
Of water on stone
The quiet sound
Of waves on sand
When you hold my hand
My heart makes
Natural sounds
With you...
My head makes
Natural noises too
My love
the worrying sound of bees in the comb
the rushing sound of wind in the trees
When we kiss
And more than this I know
My heart would make
Natural sounds
If ever you should go
the hollow sound of stones dropped in a well
The lonely sound
Of rain in the night
Natural sounds
My heart makes
Natural sounds
With you...

"Second Hand Rose (From A Happening In Central Park)"

   
Father has a business strictly second hand
Everything from toothpicks to a baby-grand
Stuff in our apartment came from father's store
Even things I'm wearing someone wore before
It's no wonder that I feel abused
I never get a thing that ain't been used
I'm wearing second hand hats
Second hand clothes
That's why they call me
Second hand Rose

Even our piano in the parlor
Father bought for ten cents on the dollar
Second hand pearls
I'm sick of second hand curls
I never get a single think that's new
Even Jake, the plumber, he's a man I adore
Had the nerve to tell me he's been married before!

Everyone knows that I'm just
Second hand Rose
From second Avenue!
From Second Avenue! Nu!

One more time!
Everyone knows that I'm just
Second hand Rose
(From second Avenue!)
From what?
Let's see if you know the fills!
Once while strooling
Through the Ritz a girl got my goat...
(She nudged her friend
And said oh look there goes
My old fur coat)
You don't need me!

Everyone knows that I'm just
Second hand Rose
From Second Avenue!
(Ya can't beat the egg-creams!)
Good! Second Avenue!
(There is more between me
And Fifth Avenue, I tell ya)
Right! Second Avenue!

"What About Today?"

   
The tears I'm shedding now
I hear will dry in time
The fears I'm fearing now
I hear will die in time
But while I wait around for tomorrow
Watching life drift away
What about yes What about today?
I know if I just wait
The sun will shine some day
And when it does the weather will be fine someday
And while the skies I search for tomorrow
Stay the same shade of gray
What about yes what about today?
'Till Nirvana comes What about today?
'Till Messiah comes what about today?
'Till the mountains move and oceans part
And angels sing and life can start
What about yes what about today?
I can't help wondering if tomorrow ever comes
And what's my life been lived for if it never comes
I've heard a lot of toasts to tomorrow
But none of them ever say
What about today...what about today?
'Till nirvana comes What about today
'Till messiah comes what about today
'Till the mountains move and oceans part
And Angels sing and life can start
What about yes what about today?
I can't help wondering if tomorrow ever comes
And what's my life been lived for if it never comes
I've heard a lot of toasts to tomorrow
But none of them ever say
What about yes what about........
Today?
