The Parent Trap

[JOHN]
If their love's on skids, treat your folks like kids
Or your family tree’s gonna snap

{MARSHA]
So to make 'em dig, first, you gotta rig

[JOHN, spoken]
Uh, what do ya gotta rig?

[MARSHA]
The parent trap!
If they lose that zing and they just won't swing
Then the problem falls in your lap

[JOHN]
When your folks are square, then you must prepare

[MARSHA]
What do ya gotta prepare?

[JOHN]
The parent trap!

[JOHN & MARSHA]
To set the bait, recreate the date
The first time cupid shot ’em
Get 'em under the moon, play their favorite tune
[MARSHA]
John!

[JOHN]
Marsha!

[JOHN & MARSHA]
Ya got 'em!

[JOHN]
Lead 'em back to love with the velvet glove

[MARSHA]
'Cause they're much too old for the strap

[JOHN & MARSHA]
Straighten up their mess with togetherness
Togetherness!
The parent trap!

[Interlude]

[MARSHA, spoken]
John, they're playing our song!

[JOHN, spoken]
Oh, Marsha, what fools we've been!
[JOHN & MARSHA]
Straighten up their mess with togetherness
Togetherness!
Straighten up their mess with togetherness
Togetherness!
The parent trap!
