Kurt Weill
Wooden Wedding
[RODNEY]
Waiting for our wooden wedding
Golly, how the time will fly
Stealing kisses in the kitchen
Holding hands while the dishes dry

Waiting for our wooden wedding
Golly, how the sun will shine
We will linger o'er the laundry
I'll wash yours and you'll wash mine

Pay day will be a magic casement
Opening on something peachy
Maybe a trip to a bargain basement
Or a double feature with Don Ameche

Waiting for our wooden wedding
Golly, what a trail we'll leave
Sipping Coca-Cola at the pianola
On our wooden wedding eve

Waiting for our wooden wedding
Golly, how the birds will sing
While we whistle in the garden
Planting onions in the spring
Waiting for our wooden wedding
Golly, how the bees will buzz
Spreading pollen o'er the flowers
We can do what a bee can does

You shall have on every anniversary
A present we can pay for later
Maybe a tenant for the nursery
Or a self-adjusting incinerator

Waiting for our wooden wedding
Golly, what a spell we'll weave
You can cook a biscuit
Maybe I can risk it
On our wooden wedding eve
