lirik lagu maria – rodgers and hammerstein
berthe:
she climbs a tree
and scr-pes her knee
her dress has got a tear.
sophia:
she waltzes on her way to m-ss
and whistles on the stair.
berthe:
and underneath her wimpole
she has curlers in her hair!
sophia:
i ever hear her singing in the abbey.
berthe:
she’s always late for chapel,
margaretta:
but her penitence is real.
berthe:
she’s always late for everything,
except for every meal.
mother abbess:
i hate to have to say it
but i very firmly feel
berthe and sophia:
maria’s not an -sset to the abbey!
margaretta:
i’d like to say a word in her behalf.
maria makes me laugh!
sophia:
how do you solve a problem like maria?
mother abbess:
how do you catch a cloud and pin it down?
margaretta:
how do you find a word that means maria?
berthe:
a flibberti gibbet!
sophia:
a willo’ the wisp!
margaretta:
a clown!
mother abbess:
many a thing you know you’d like to tell her,
many a thing she ought to understand.
margaretta:
but how do you make her stay
and listen to all you say,
mother abbess:
how do you keep a wave upon the sand?
margaretta:
oh, how do you solve a problem like maria?
mother abbess:
how do you hold a moonbeam in your hand?
margaretta:
when i’m with her i’m confused,
out of focus and bemused,
and i never know exactly where i am.
sophia:
unpredictable as weather,
she’s as flighty as a feather,
margaretta:
she’s a darling,
berthe:
she’s a demon,
margaretta:
she’s a lamb.
sophia:
she’d out-pester any pest,
drive a h-rnet from his nest,
berthe:
she can throw a whirling dervish
out of whirl.
margaretta:
she is gentle,
she is wild,
sophia:
she’s a riddle.
margaretta:
she’s a child.
berthe:
she’s a headache!
margaretta:
she’s an angel!
mother abbess:
she’s a girl.
all nuns:
how do you solve a problem like maria?
how do you catch a clown and pin it down?
how do you find a word that means maria?
a flibberti gibbet!
a willo’ the wisp!
a clown!
many a thing you know you’d like to tell her,
many a thing she ought to understand.
but how do you make her say,
and listen to all you say?
how do you keep a wave upon the sand?
oh, how do you solve a problem like maria?
how do you hold a moonbeam in your hand
