MIDI File

Ellen: Oh, the fine folks with their marriages
Too fussy always are,
They wants horses and their carriages,
Or else a motor car;
But that motion ain't my notion,
It's too fidgety by half,
And you're either tumbled out,
Or you jump and shake about,
Like a cinematograph!
Bridesmaids: Like a cinematograph!
Ellen: Just wait and see
When Bob and me
Get married on our own,
No motor car for us,
We'll take a penny 'bus;
We'll have no bells or smoky smells,
Or pip-pip-pipping fuss,
When Bob and me
Get married on our own!
Bridesmaids: Just wait and see
When Bob and me
Get married on our own,
No motor car for us,
We'll take a penny 'bus;
We'll have no bells or smoky smells,
Or pip-pip-pipping fuss,
When Bob and me
Get married on our own!
   
Ellen: And so awkward and so stiff they are,
When the honeymoon's begun,
And they sneak away as if they are
Ashamed of what they've done;
First to Dover, then cross over
To the Continent they fly,
And they hide in Hotel Grand,
Like an ostrich in the sand,
But my Bob and me ain't shy!
Bridesmaids: But her Bob and she ain't shy!
Ellen: And you shall see
When Bob and me
Get married on our own,
We'll manage very well
Without a Grand Hotel,
A short weekend at gay Southend,
Or trip on the "Margate Belle,"
When Bob and me
Get married on our own!
Bridesmaids: Just wait and see
When Bob and me
Get married on our own,
We'll manage very well
Without a Grand Hotel,
A short weekend at gay Southend,
Or trip on the "Margate Belle,"
When Bob and me
Get married on our own!
