Here We Are the Musical - Digestion Lyrics


The song is written by Stephen Sondheim.

(LEO burps loudly.)

MARIANNE: (spoken)
Do I hear music?

LEO: (spoken)
Must've eaten something

CLAUDIA: (spoken)
I wonder what the kids are up to

PAUL: (spoken)
You calling them?

CLAUDIA: (spoken)
No, just surfing

FRITZ: (spoken)
Hey. Hey, you.
What's going on out there?

WINDSOR: (spoken)
Patience, Apocalypse
All will be revealed

MARIANNE: (spoken)
Is my hair a horror?

(LEO burps.)

RAFFAEL: (spoken)
Not at all, it's beautiful

MARIANNE: (spoken)
Oh, stop

COLONEL MARTIN: (spoken)
What you're playing, that is beautiful

BISHOP: (spoken)
Really?

FRITZ: (spoken)
Christ!

RAFFAEL: (spoken, sotto voce to MARIANNE)
I have to have you
Now, more than ever

(LEO burps.)

WINDSOR: (spoken)
A digestif—sir?

LEO: (spoken)
No, thanks

FRITZ: (spoken)
Over here, pal

PAUL:
I have to say
I didn't think
The carrots had much lilt

CLAUDIA: (spoken)
Oh, you always say that

MARIANNE: (spoken)
Isn't it wonderful to be doing
something different for a change?

RAFFAEL: (spoken, sotto voce to MARIANNE)
I have to have you
Now, more than ever

(LEO burps.)

WINDSOR: (spoken)
A digestif—sir?

LEO: (spoken)
No, thanks

FRITZ: (spoken)
Over here, pal

PAUL:
I have to say
I didn't think
The carrots had much lilt

CLAUDIA: (spoken)
Oh, you always say that

MARIANNE:
Isn't it wonderful to be doing
something different for a change?

LEO:
You know,
I've eaten a carrot every—
*Burp*
Day for forty—
*Burp*
Years—Jesus, what is this?

PAUL:
I have nothing but praise
For the beef Bordelaise
But she fucked up the glaze
On the peas

MARIANNE: (spoken)
Oh, please
Peas, peas, peas, who cares?
Here we are in Eden

CLAUDIA: (spoken)
And then some

RAFFAEL: (spoken)
Oh, I love this expression.
"And then some"
Did you have fun?
And then some!
Was it good?
Oh, and then some!
People tell me less is more
I say, no. More is more.
And then some!
