Marriage
is a gamble at its best.
At its best.
People often lose what they invest.
They invest.
And so I've come to this conclusive point of view.
Before they take the plunge and say I do,
Ding dong, ding dong,
Every gal and guy
should try a honeymoon.
Try a little honeymoon.
They'd evade the worst
If the honeymoon came first.
If the honeymoon came first.
Why go to Niagara?
Niagara.
When the wedding bells are gone.
Why not know beforehand what you'll find out later on?
Later on.
There'd be much more love and so much less divorce.
And less remorse.
If we'd only
placed the cart before the horse.
La la la la.
There would be fewer hearts to trample.
If we'd set a new example.
And lovers tried a simple honeymoon.
Every
Jill and Jake
should take a honeymoon.
Take a little honeymoon.
It should always
be
right before, oh promise me.
Right before, oh promise me.
Why trifle with romance?
With
romance.
Why put lovers on a spot?
No one builds a building
till they first survey the
lot.
Every newlywed
would be in better shape.
Much better shape.
If the wine would only
come before the grape.
La la la la.
They'd lose that look of self-denial.
As they tiptoe
down the aisle.
If lovers tried a trial honeymoon.
If lovers tried a trial honeymoon.
