TRINA

I'm tired of all the happy men who rule the world

They grow—of that I'm sure

They grow—but don't mature

I'd like the chance to hide in that world

I'm listening

To these men who aren't quite men yet

But aren't boys

Make noise

And throw their knives;

Their toys are people's lives

They fight too hard

And play too rough

They sometimes love, but not enough

My heart will beat at will, but still

It's crazy how they're acting

It's crazy my response

It's stupid how I love them

So dumb, how I anticipate their wants

But as long as they amuse me

That alone is what's required

So I'll roar

Like I'm wired

I'll explore what I'm feeling

Except what I'm feeling is tired

I'm tired

So tired of all the happy men who rule the world

Happy, frightened men who rule the world

Stupid, charming men

Silly, childish jerks

That said, I'll be his wife

I'll wed and change my life

I'll laugh, I'll smile, I'll welcome cheer

The time is right, the men are near

Now happiness and love appear

MARVIN, WHIZZER, JASON, AND MENDEL

March. March

March of the Falsettos

March of the Falsettos

Whee!

Who is

Man enough to march to

March of the Falsettos?

WHIZZER

C'mere

MARVIN, WHIZZER, JASON, AND MENDEL

One foot

Following the other

Teach it to your brother

Make him

March

March

March of the Falsettos

March of the Falsettos

March a little bit

March a little bit

March a little bit

On

Four men, swaying in

Phosphorescence
