Arkham Dunwich
[ARMITAGE]
She is our daughter and we love her

[MARION]
We want her happiness and joy
But here in Arkham it is hard to find a boy

[ARMITAGE]
Even in Dunwich it's a problem
Suitable lads are seldom seen

[ARMITAGE, MARION]
We've looked since Prudence here turned sweet sixteen

Arkham, Dunwich, Arkham, Dunwich
Filled with hauntig fears;
Neighbors who hide up in the attics
Inbreeding happily for years
Arkham, Dunwich, Arkham, Dunwich
Ancient haunted grounds;
Finding a normal man's a challenge
In these benighted little towns

[MARION]
Wilbur is from a well-known family;
Powerful, prominent and rich
[ARMITAGE]
And like the residents of Innsmouth, smells like fish

[MARION]
His taste in clothing is peculiar
It's true he doesn't have good looks
But he's a scholar, always reading books

[ARMITAGE, MARION]
Arkham, Dunwich, Arkham, Dunwich
Ancient haunted grounds;
Neighborhoods hiding many secrets
Strange and oppressive little towns
Arkham, Dunwich, Arkham, Dunwich
Pickings here are slim;
Prudence might not like Wilbur Whately
But we think she should marry him
