Verse 2 The female remaining single, just in the legal sense, Shows a neurotic tendency. See note. (Spoken) Note. Chronic organic syndromes, toxic or hypertense, Involving the eye, the ear, and the nose and the throat. In other words, just from worrying whether the wedding is on or off, A person can develop a cough! You can feed her all day with the Vitamin A and the Biomo Fizz, But the medicine never gets anywhere near where the trouble is. If she's getting a kind of a name for herself, and the name ain't his, A person can develop a cough!
Verse 3 And furthermore, just from stalling and stalling and stalling the wedding trip, A person can develop La grippe! When they get on the train for Niag'ra and she can hear church bells chlme, The compartment is air-conditioned and the mood sublime, Then they get off at Saratoga for the fourteenth time, A person can develop La grippe, La grippe, La post-nasal drip, etc.

Verse 2 One of these days, and it won't be long, He'll know more about me than he should. All my dreams will be understood: No surprise. Nothing more to learn from the look in my eyes. Don't you know that time is not my friend? I'll fight it to the end, Hoping to keep the best of moments When the passions start. Heaven help my heart The day that I find Suddenly I've run out of secrets, Suddenly I'm not always on his mind!
