Finaletto Act II, Scene 1 Lyrics

Finaletto Act II, Scene 1 Text

---

GIRLS:
On single life today
The curtain's falling:
And oh! We've got to say
It's most enthralling.
They'll honeymoon away -
Niag'ra's calling.
Don't you just adore it!
They've a nice day for it!
Bachelor boy and bachelor girl-goodbye!

BRIDESMAIDS:
It's never too late to Mendelsshon
It doesn't matter how long you have tarried.
Two hearts are at Journey's Endelssohn
And we have all come here to see them married.

ENSEMBLE:
And now
We'll hear them take their vow -
The happy bride and groom.
They're through
When they have said "I do!" -
The happy bride and groom.
One thing!
Please don't forget the ring -
Oh, happy bride and groom.
Be gay -
This is your wedding day -
Be happy! Happy happy bride and groom!

KAY:
Though I'm patiently waiting,
He is long overdue.
If he keeps hesitating,
Tell me, what can I do?
Someday he will appear -
Perhaps he's near.
I'm not going to worry
But I do wish he'd hurry.

ENSEMBLE:
Soon or late-maybe -
If you wait-maybe -
Paradise will open its gate

KAY AHD JIMMY:
Maybe soon-maybe late.
