Quote:
There's a married couple, happily
Living in Apartment Forty-Three,
I live right next door, in Apartment Forty-Four.
Gee, but they're a mushy He and She,
Mushing seems to be their specialty.
It would start you walking, if you heard them talking!
All day long he calls her
All day long they talk like babies!
She's his "Jelly-elly roll"
He's her "Sugey-ugar bowl".
Here's the way they bill and coo:
"Poogywoo, Poogywoo, Poogywoo!"
All night long he calls her:
"Snookey Ookums, Snookey Ookums!"
All night long the neighbors shout:
They cry:
"For goodness sake! Don't keep us all awake!
With your Snookey, Ookey, Ookey, baby talk!"
If you ever heard their mushy song,
If you saw how well they get along,
You would bet your life that they weren't man and wife!
He's a little fellow, four foot tall,
Weighing just a hundred, clothes and all,
She's a great Big Lady, weighs a hundred eighty!
All day long he calls her
"Snookey Ookums, Snookey Ookums!"
All day long they act like babies!
She's his "Jelly-elly roll"
He's her "Sugey-ugar bowl".
Here's the way they bill and coo:
"Poogywoo, Poogywoo, Poogywoo!"
All night long he calls her:
"Snookey Ookums, Snookey Ookums!"
All night long the neighbors shout:
They cry:
"For goodness sake! Don't keep us all awake!
With your Snookey, Ookey, Ookey, baby talk!"
