What More Can I Say?

MARVIN:

It's been hot,

Also very sweet.

And I'm not usually indiscreet.

But when he sparkles,

The earth begins to sway.

What more can I say

How can I express

How confused am I by our happiness

I can't eat breakfast,

I barely tie my shoe.

What more can I do

If I said I love him,

You might think my words come cheap.

Let's just say

I'm glad he's mine awake,

Asleep.

It's been hot

Also it's been swell.

More than not,

It's been more than words can tell.

I halt.

I stammer.

I sing a rondelay.

What more can I say

I'll stay calm.

Untie my tongue.

And try to stay

Both kind and young.

I was taught

Never brag or shout.

Still it's hot,

Just like how you read about.

And also caring,

And never too uncouth.

That's the simple truth.

(WHIZZER is sleeping face up.

MARVIN looks underneath the sheet

and is stunned by his good fortune.)

Can you tell

I have been revised

It's so swell,

Damn it, even I'm surprised.

We laugh,

We fumble

We take it day by day.

What more can I say
