Lyrics:
She:
Darling, here we are waiting for one sweet day.
He:
But, we can't even budge
'til we hear from the judge
who will say,
"Go be gay,
No more love and obey."
She:
And "Oh boy!",
What a joy
to be free as the air!
He:
And we won't have a care.
When we get our divorce from the district court,
What a happy young pair we will be.
She:
Won't life be complete when we get our sweet
interlocutory decree?
He:
I will buy you a bunch of forget-me-nots,
and I'll dress myself up like a horse.
She:
On the witness stand,
we'll go hand in hand.
I won't care what you testify.
I'll think it's best if I
know we can get our divorce.
He:
When we get our divorce from the district court,
What a happy young pair we will be.
You can go your way,
I can go my way.
She:
That would be heaven for me.
He:
I will buy you a cute little bungalow.
But, I'll never come near it of course.
She:
Yet, if you are press'd,
there's an extra guest...
He:
Then perhaps I'll get clubby
with your second hubby,
and tell him about our divorce.
