KOTLC + Fiddler on the Roof

Hey! I wanted to thank everyone so much for the 200 views! I know that one day I'll probably have a lot more than that but for right now, this is an accomplishment for me.

Also, I'm currently on spring break so I'm going to try to post more, if you couldn't tell from the past few days.

Okay, Matchmaker; Sophie as Tzeitel, Biana as Hodel, Linh as Chava

[Biana]

Sophie, you're the oldest. A match is going to be made for you before one is made for me. 

[Sophie]

Oh, matchmakers!

[Biana]

Well, somebody has to arrange the matches. Young people can't decide these things for themselves.

[Linh]

Well, they might bring someone wonderful-

[Biana]

Someone interesting-

[Linh]

And well off-

[Biana]

And important-

(sung)

Matchmaker, matchmaker
Make me a match
Find me a find
Catch me a catch
Matchmaker, matchmaker
Look through your book
And make me a perfect match

[Linh]

Matchmaker, matchmaker
I'll bring the veil
You bring the groom
Slender and pale
Bring me a ring for I'm longing to be
The envy of all I see

[Biana]

For Papa, make him a scholar

[Linh]

For Mama, make him rich as a king

[Biana & Linh]

For me, well
I wouldn't holler
If he were as handsome as anything
Matchmaker, matchmaker
Make me a match
Find me a find
Catch me a catch
Night after night, in the dark I'm alone

[Biana]

So find me a match
Of my own

[Sophie, spoken]

Since when are you interested in a match, Linh? I thought you just had your eye on your books. And you have your eye on Kesler's son.

[Biana]

Well, why not? Kesler only has one eldest son. Why shouldn't I want him?

[Sophie]

Because you're a girl from a rich family. So whatever the matchmaker brings, you'll take, right? Of course, right.

(sung, imitating matchmaker)

Biana, oh Biana
Have I a match for you
He's handsome, he's young
Alright, he's 602
But he's a nice man, a good catch
True? True
I promise you'll be happy
And even if you're not
There's more to life than that-
Don't ask me what

Linh, I found him
Won't you be a lucky bride?
He's handsome, he's tall
That is from side to side
But he's a nice man, a good match, right?

[Biana]

Right

[Sophie]

You've heard he has a temper

[Biana]

He'll beat you every night

[Sophie]

But only when he's sober

[Sophie & Biana]

So you're alright

[Sophie]

Did you think you'd get a prince?
Well, I do the best I can

[Sophie & Biana]

With no dowry, no money, no family background
Be glad you got a man

[Linh]

Matchmaker, matchmaker
You know that I'm
Still very young
Please, take your time

[Biana]

Up to this moment I misunderstood
That I could get stuck for good

[Sophie, Biana, & Linh]

Dear matchmaker, see that he's gentle
Remember, you were also a bride
It's not that I'm sentimental
It's just that I'm terrified
Matchmaker, matchmaker
Plan me no plans
I'm in no rush
Maybe I've learned
Playing with matches
A girl can get burned

So bring me no ring
Groom me no groom
Find me no find
Catch me no catch
Unless he's a matchless match

Have a great whatever time it is!
