"Adelaide (sings)
At Wanamaker’s and Saks and Klein’s
A lesson I’ve been taught:
You can’t get alterations on a dress you haven’t bought.
Sarah (sings)
At any veg’table market from Borneo to Nome
You mustn’t squeeze a melon
Till you get the melon home.
Adelaide
You’ve simply got to gamble.
(looks at Sarah)
Sarah
You get no guarantee.
Adelaide
Now doesn’t that kind of apply to you and I?
Sarah
You and me.
Adelaide (rises)
Why not?
Sarah (rises)
Why not what?
Adelaide
Marry the man today,
Trouble tho’ he may be,
Much as he loves to play,
Crazy and wild and free.
Sarah and Adelaide
Marry the man today
(turn to one another)
Rather than sigh and sorrow.
Adelaide
Marry the man today
And change his ways tomorrow.
Sarah
Marry the man today.
Adelaide
Marry the man today.
Sarah
Maybe he’s leaving town.
(pulls Adelaide back)
Adelaide
Maybe he’s leaving town.
Sarah
Don’t let him get away.
(motions with fist)
Adelaide
Don’t let him get away.
Sarah
Hurry and track him down.
Adelaide
Counter attack him and
Sarah and Adelaide
Marry the man today,
(Both put hands out.)
Give him the girlish laughter.
Sarah
Give him your hand today
And save the fist for after.
Adelaide
Slowly introduce him to the better things,
Respectable, conservative and clean.
Sarah
Readers Digest!
Adelaide
Guy Lombardo!
Sarah
Rogers Peet!
Adelaide
Golf!
Sarah
Galoshes!
Adelaide
Ovaltine!
Both
But marry the man today,
(fist gesture)
Handle it meek and gently.
Adelaide
Marry the man today
And train him subsequently.
Sarah
Carefully expose him to domestic life,
And if he ever tries to stray from you,
Have a pot roast.
Adelaide
Have a headache.
(hand to head)
Sarah
Have a baby.
Adelaide
Have two.
Sarah
Six!
Adelaide
Nine!
Sarah
Stop!
Both
Marry the man today,
Rather than sigh and sorrow.
Marry the man today
(They shake hands.)
And change his ways,
Adelaide
And change his ways,
Sarah
And change his ways,
Adelaide
And change his ways
Sarah
And change his ways
Both
Tomorrow!"
