Marie's Law lyrics
MARIE:
My law shall state
to whom it may concern-
MORRIS:
Your law shall state
to whom it may concern-
MARIE:
When a lady loves a gentlemen
he must love her in return!
MORRIS:
Loves a gentlemen
he must love her in return.
MARIE:
In read, my law
Ad hoc, to wit to woo-
MORRIS:
In read, your law
Ad hoc, to wit to woo-
MARIE:
When a lady feels affectionate
then the man must follow through!
MORRIS:
Feels affectionate
then the man must follow through
MARIE:
Yet another law we women will do
our best to legislate:
it shall be completely criminal
for a man to break a date
Each offender shall be rapidly thrown
in jail where he belongs.
Thus will write our bill a wrong.
My law is what the world is waiting for.
MORRIS:
Your law it what the world is waiting for.
MARIE:
Every unrequited lover will be grateful when it
Meets the full approval of the house and senate
such enthusiasm as you never saw
will greet my lovely law.
In read my law
It should be understood
MORRIS:
In read your law
it should be understood
MARIE:
With the help of women everywhere
we shall outlaw bachelorhood
MORRIS:
Women everywhere
you shall outlaw bachelor hood-
MARIE:
Once more, in lieu-
MORRIS:
Marie, before you’re through
I’ve got some things I’d like to say
If you have got to outlaw anything
you should outlaw in-laws too!
MARIE:
I’m concerned with what the man must do.
Every girl shall have a honeymoon
which shall last at least a year.
During which aforesaid honeymoon
every care shall disappear.
If so fact we let the government
get the bride and groom alone
after that they’re on their own.
Whereas-
MORRIS:
Whereat-
MARIE:
Hereby-
MORRIS:
Hereof-
MARIE:
Therein-
MORRIS:
Thereout and further more-
MARIE:
My law-
MORRIS:
Your law-
MARIE:
Is what-
MORRIS:
Is what-
MARIE:
The world-
MORRIS:
The world is waiting for.
MARIE:
We are going to rid the country of contempt of courtship.
MORRIS:
Legally replacing it with davenport-ship
BOTH:
Such enthusiasm as you never saw
Will greet my/your lovely law
