Matchmaker, matchmaker make me a match
find me a find catch me a catch.
Matchmaker, matchmaker look through your book
and make me a perfect match

Matchmaker, matchmaker I'll bring the veil
you bring the grrom, slender and pale
Bring me a ring for I'm longing to be 
the envy of all I see
For poppa make him a scholar
for momma make him rich as a king
For me I wouldnt holler if he were as rich
as anything!

Matchmaker, matchmaker make me a match
find me a find catch me a catch.
Night after night in the dark I'm all alone
so strike me a match of my own

Matchmaker, matchmaker, 
you know that I'm still very young
Please take your time
Up to this minute I misunderstood
that I could get stuck for good

Dear Yente, see that he's gentle
remember, you were also a bride
Its not that I'm sentimental
its just that I'm terrified

Matchmaker, matchmaker, 
plan me no plans I'm in no rush
Maybe I've learned playing with matches
a girl could get burned
So bring me no ring groom me no groom
Find me no find catch me no catch
unless he's a perfect match!


male:

Matchmaker, matchmaker make me a match
find me a find catch me a catch.
Matchmaker, matchmaker look through your book
and make her a perfect match
