lyrics

(Translated from Hebrew by Yael Teff-Seker)

Adelaide: Sophie – wants a guy who speaks impeccable English.
Pantalone: Because why would she need looks if she already has books?...
Adelaide: Bianca – wants a religious guy but one with character.
Pantalone: Because with a non orthodox man it’s hard to make plans.
Adelaide: Bertha – wants a poet!
Polchinelas: Why? No one can spot it!...
Adelaide: Therese – a simple groom…
Polchinelas: As long as he’s got room…
Adelaide: But I want, I really want - a killer!
Polchinelas: And why shouldn't she take an engineer who comes home at 5 and plays with the kids?
Adelaide: Heaven forbid!
Pantalone: And why shouldn’t she take an engineer who’s thin and polite - and breaks all his
rulers?!
Adelaide: Oh - heaven help us!
Pantalone: It’s -
Adelaide: A man with a burning forehead!
Pantalone: it’s -
Adelaide: A man with a lion’s heart!
Pantalone: He’s -
Adelaide: A real human man!
Polchinelas: Who won’t give a damn!
Adelaide: But I want, I really want this kind of killer!
But I want, I really want - a killer!
So what if he doesn’t work hours and he’s unexpected
And it’s probably a waste to be too invested…
Polchinelas: No investment for sure!...
Adelaide: And he probably comes with a knife and a gun
and a bunch of surprises and other explosives…
Polchinelas: So don’t get your hopes up!
Pantalone: It’s -
Adelaide: A man with a burning forehead!
Pantalone: it’s -
Adelaide: A man with a lion’s heart!
Pantalone: He’s -
Adelaide: A real humane man!
Polchinelas: Who don’t give a damn!
Adelaide: But I want, I really want this kind of killer!
