“your mother witheld her love from you, dear, i try witholding mine”... referenced again in Marvin at the Psychiatrist, “perhaps she held back love from you”!
I think her ‘oldest’ child is a metaphor for Marvin. As she views him as childish, as noted in March of the Falsettos. Plus she never calls him her son explicitly so I believe she views him as a child. The parakeet is a metaphor for trina, she doesn’t move her wings, she knows what’s going on but she can’t bring herself to fly away from it all. And the baby is Jason, he’s the only literal baby.
Oo I like that, 'the Marvin trilogy.' What I'm calling it from now on. And I agree! In Trousers is just as good as March of the Falsettos and Falsettoland and deserves attention
I came up with this but if you need it for school or something with no cursing. "The baby is crying on the swing set and the oldest is with a friend. The parakeet hasn't moved its wings yet, all good things come to end"
The reason green carnations are one the flag (most likely idk actually but it makes sense) is because they were used in the late 1800s onward as a signal for gay men, popularized by Oscar Wilde!

Wait a minute, when she says “the neighbors love me”, could “the neighbors” possibly be who I think they are?? I mean, there’s no sign that Trina and Marvin moved, and when Trina left Marvin for Mendel, Marvin probably stayed in the same house. So technically, Trina could be talking about THE LESBIANS FROM NEXT DOOR
pretty sure cordelia and charlotte were next door to marvin at his new place, not the house he and trina lived in together. also they would NEVER call trina a clown not my lesbians
I’m a little confused. Is this Trina singing this song. And if so do Marvin and Trina have two kids? I love Falsettos and I want to get into In Trousers as well. Can someone please clear this up for me?
lily markarian Exactly what I'm trying to figure out. It feels like Falsettos and In Trousers weren't meant to be connected. Although I would love to know the story before Marvins big break with Trina
Entre enter I think so too. However when I googled it it refers to Jason as Marvin’s “un-named” child, and doesn’t even mention the other child. One answer may be that the baby is a metaphor for Trina, herself, or what she is feeling. I’m not really sure but it’s just a guess. If they do have two children it would be weird that they did not make mention of it in Falsettos. When Trina says, “The oldest drinks wine.” I think she means herself since in I’m Breaking Down she says, “That is why I might turn to drink.” Jason is also not old enough to drink wine nor is an infant when Marvin leaves Trina. So I’m guessing that Trina is referring to herself when she says the baby is wailing because in Breaking Down she says, “I’ve cried, I’ve shook, I’ve yelled, I’ve heaved.” So maybe these two so called children are Trina expressing herself through fiction characters. This is just a guess and I hope it clears up any questions you have. Thanks for helping me also!!😁😁
Aly H yeah that is what I was trying to figure out too. Since he actually kissed both of them they can’t be fake. Maybe it’s another metaphor but I’m not really sure.
attention in trousers fans: i need in trousers friends and it's virtually impossible to find them out in the wild so if you need someone to freak out about it with pls reply to this comment
It's a prequel. If you're a fan of Falsettos, you need to hear the original cast recording of "March of the Falsettos," with Alison Fraser as Trina, and "Falsettoland" with Faith Prince as Trina.
This and Falsettos is The Marvin Trilogy. In trousers is first, and Falsettos was split into two different plays instead of two acts. These are the second and thrid

its still not there :(

In Trousers needs to have more attebtion brought to it, especially since its part of the Marvin trilogy and Falsettos has recently had a revival.
there're 4 of them. in trousers, march of the falsettos, falsettoland and falsettos.
Falsettos is just March of the Falsettos and Falsettoland put together as a two act musical.
Oo I like that, 'the Marvin trilogy.' What I'm calling it from now on. And I agree! In Trousers is just as good as March of the Falsettos and Falsettoland and deserves attention
Right! WE need a whole Marvin trilogy revival instead of taking songs from all three and making it one.
@@maggieann-mae5189 yes. Please.
AAA THIS MUSICAL MAKES ME APPRECIATE TRINA ON ANOTHER LEVEL
y'all sleeping on the best song? your lips and me is probably the best song i've ever heard tbh
ararlynn ! I agree-
This girl agrees
Ginevra Barone adeiu !
Ikr everyone says it’s whizzer going down whizzer going down is still a BOP
Guy with a Nagito Profile picture spitting facts
Stephanie singing this, pretty pretty please?
I love the raspiness of her voice

I came up with this but if you need it for school or something with no cursing. "The baby is crying on the swing set and the oldest is with a friend. The parakeet hasn't moved its wings yet, all good things come to end"
ReeseWaterDragon or "the oldest sits in class"
or the oldests skipping class
why did you censor "come to pass"?
Didn't censor it. However, I changed it to make it rhyme with the other line.
ReeseWaterDragon ah, okay
Your Lips and Me is like the best song????
I agree
I prefer set those sails but this is also a bop
Literally every song in this album amazing
I didn't like her voice at first but now I'm in love
The Most Wonderful Girl AKA Christine same
Same
Actaully, same.
Whizzer is A homosexual omg I see you everywhere
I fell in love with her voice the first time I heard it
This gives me major Mothers Gonna Make Things Fine vibes
Now that you mention it, holy shit this really has Mother's Gonna Make Things Fine vibes
throw it o u t
that’s the i’m breaking down of a new brain
@@puddle7740 Yes 100%
puddle YES
The way she says “lips” is amazing
I feel like the only person in the world who likes In Trousers lmao
I remember finding this album after listening to Falsettos and I was OBSESSED, it's probably the music I know best after A New Brain
this song is so underrated
more people need to know this song
i said id love you to death so i must be dead k yes also love ur pfp-
UNUS ANNUS
Ummm unus annus stannies that like in trousers :-)
@@rangerinretrograde4389 yeah they’re more common than you think
The harmonies in the beginning literally give me alllllllll of the chills, it's too good and hard to explain
2:43 the flower in the middle of the Achillean (men who love men) flag is a carnation, usually either blue or green 👀
yeah and blue carnations are a symbol pretty much of loyalty and stuff
The reason green carnations are one the flag (most likely idk actually but it makes sense) is because they were used in the late 1800s onward as a signal for gay men, popularized by Oscar Wilde!
How the body fall apart
First the groin and then the heart
It's easy and it's smart
Things on which we most depend

When the body falls
Apart
["Your Lips and Me"]
[HIS WIFE]
The baby is crying on the swingset
The oldest is kicking ass
The parakeet hasn't moved its wings yet
All good things come to pass
I think of sunshine, and roses in bloom
But you're off sitting with another someone
In another room
That's alright, dear
You go on digging your grave, dear
I didn't know that you were lonely
I thought you'd agree
But when I saw your lips
I knew they didn't belong to me
Your mother reports your father's blue, dear
And your father reports he's fine
Your mother withheld her love from you, dear
I try withholding mine
The neighbors love me
They tell me I'm great
But you're off snoozing with another floozie
In another state
That's alright, dear
You go on digging your grave, dear
I didn't know you're so
Attractive
I thought you'd agree
But when I saw your lips
I knew they didn't belong to me
Nice day
Nice life
Precious few people squawk
Nice
Good friends
High life
Isn't it fun to talk?
Nice
The oldest drinks wine, the baby's wailing
And the parakeet still can't fly
Your mother reports your father's failing;
True, he has failed to die
The neighbors love me
They saw I'm a clown
It's awful dressing in my blue carnation
When you're out of town
Pay no mind, dear
Just go on digging your grave, dear
I didn't ask to be your mother
Your lips were the key
But when I saw your lips
I knew they didn't belong
No, they didn't belong
I'm sure they didn't belong
To me
This needs to be put on streaming services!
One of my fave songs
I meant to post this on Your Lips and Ms but it still stands here
huh
I googled "floozie" and it specifically refers to "a sexually promiscuous female".
hmm
I think it's because Trina (the wife) doesn't know/ want to admit that Marvin is gay and would rather have him cheating on her with a girl vs a guy
@Alexander Hamilton 2:07
@Alexander Hamilton thank you :)
Little did she know
It should be a crime removing this in the 1985 version.
Who called Trina a clown just wanna speak to her neighbors real quick 🔫🙂
Just a friendly chat 🔫🙂
could be the lesbians from next door
@@eggiesoverspinachovertoast8624 didn’t they only move in in falsettoland
Btw I killed that parakeet. It kept cooing and scarring Jason when he was 1
this is wonderful
Ava 8
So I found out there was a concept that Trina would commit sewer slide in your lips and me reprise so I’m glad will didn’t go with that
“Sewer slide” 💀
I CANT FIND THIS MUSICAL ON SPOTIFY YEAH IM OKAY AFFSF
Richie Tozier YEAH IT SUCKS- there’s only like how Marvin eats his breakfast and set those sails
you can find it almost anywhere but spotify (づ-̩̩̩-̩̩̩_-̩̩̩-̩̩̩)づ
No because why does Trina get THE BEST SONGS?!
Ik is weird to ask, but, do you speak spanish? (is just you user name is in spanish) 😭‼️
@@marmar_-my3bb I do! Spanish is my first language!
literally love this song … in trousers is so good
I love this song so much. It's perfect.
its been almost five years since i discovered this musical and im still head over heels for this version of trina
the clarinet in this song 😩
your lips and me is objectively such a good song like what
"The neighbors love me" hmmmm
That one phangirl I don’t think her neighbors are... A PHAN OF HER HAHAHAHAHAH
the lesbians from next door !
ITS THE LESBIANS FROM NEXT DOOR
@@raspberrycrowns9494 I'm pretty sure they didn't exist yet. In the very first obc of Falsettos, there was no lesbians.
@@confetti_kisses427
thanks for the info
this is really good??
"but youre off snoozing with another floozy in another state"
what state could she be talking about?????
possibly..........
florida?
Or Orlandoooooo or Omaha Nebraska
i genuinely love this song sm u don't understand
I love this song and I am going to cry because of it
this literally is fucking angelic in the best way
i just realized they spelled chip zien wrong on the art
I need to cover this

THE LESBIANS CALLED TRINA A CLOWN ?!
@@confetti_kisses427 i guess
“The neighbours love me,” maybe they do, trina ᕕ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)ᕗ
Well maybe but they’re just Marvin’s friends, maybe the lesbians moved in during the 2 years, or Marvin moved house, I mean he has the money for it
pretty sure cordelia and charlotte were next door to marvin at his new place, not the house he and trina lived in together. also they would NEVER call trina a clown not my lesbians
god i love trina
I LUV IN TROUSERS SM THIS SONG AND "SET THOSE SAILS" R EASILY THE BEST
Can someone please put this on Spotify……. Pls I’m dying
Your Lips and Me starts at 0:35
I TBINK OF SUNSHINE AND ROSES ON BLOOM☹️☹️
