Lyrics
Every time I hear that march from Lohengrin
I am always on the outside lookin' in
Maybe that is why I see the funny side
When I see somebody's brother take a bride
Weddings make a lot of people sad
But if you're not the one, they're not so bad
Another bride, another June
Another sunny honeymoon
Another season, another reason
For makin' whoopee
A lot of shoes, a lot of rice
The groom is nervous, who can blame him, he answers twice
It's really killin', but he's so willin' to make whoopee
Picture a little love nest
I got you
Down where the roses cling
It's very romantic
Picture that seems sweet love nest
Think what a year can bring
I'm with you
He's washin' dishes and baby clothes
He should
He's so ambitious, not really, he even sews
2003, babe
But don't forget folks, that's what you get folks
For makin' whoopee
Another year
What?
Or maybe less
What's this I hear? Can't you guess?
No
She feels neglected
And he's suspected
That's right
Of makin' whoopee
She sits alone, 'most every night
He doesn't phone nor even write
I forget the number (yeah)
He says he's busy
Yeah
But she says, is he?
He's makin' whoopee
He doesn't make much money
Yeah, 500,000 per
Who told you that?
Some judge who thinks he's funny
Says, you pay six to her
He says, "Now judge, what if I fail?"
Judge says, "Bud, right into jail"
Whoops
You better keep her, I think it's cheaper
Than makin' whoopee
Yeah, don't forget, folks
That's what you get, folks
For makin' whoopee
