Everytime I hear that march from lohengrin
I am always on the outside looking in
maybe that is why i see the funny side
when i see a fallen brother take a bride
weddings make a lot of people sad
But if your not the groom it's not so bad

Another bride, another groom
another sunny honeymoon
another season, another reason
for making whooppee

A lot of shoes, a little rice,
The groom is nervous, he answers twice
It's really chilling, that he's so willing
to make whooppee

Picutre a little love nest
Down where the roses cling
Picture that same sweet love nest
Think what a year may bring

He's washing dishes, and baby clothes
He's so amitious he even sews
but don't forget folks
That's what you get folks for making whooppee

Another year or maybe less
What's that I hear?, Oh can't you guess
She feels neglected and he's suspected of making whooppee

She sits alone, most every night
He doesn't phone, he doesn't write
He says he's busy, She says well is he?
He's making whooppee

He doesn't make much money
Only 5000 per
Some judge who thinks he's funny
says you pay 6 to her

He says now judge, suppose I fail
The judge says bud, you go right into jail
You better keep her
I think it's cheaper
than making whooppee
