Lyrics
Helen and Gene Helen and Gene Gene and Helen Helen and Gene— Don't sing that before the wedding—it's bad luck. Okay, then— (sung) Happy birthday to you Happy birthday to you Happy birthday, dear Helen and Gene Happy birthday to you! Helen and Gene are gonna get married Gonna get married, gonna get married Helen and Gene are gonna get married— Isn't it wonderful? One wonderful day Wonderful things can happen In a wonderful way! Wonderful girl meets wonderful boy What a wonderful chance to start a life Full of wonder and joy! One wonderful day Somebody wonderful sweeps All your worries away! If the feeling's mutual Then the future will Burst into song And it's one wonderful day all year long! Let's have a party! Congratulations! I wish you luck and prosperity! I wish you hearty felicitations! I wish that someone would marry me Don't do it, Gene Don't do it, Gene Love, with a spouse, is a household routine Then, when you're through What can you do? Can't send a dame home Who lives in the same home As you! One horrible day You will wake up to find You're in a horrible way! You will be married, you will be caught! Every day you'll come home And she'll be there— What a horrible thought! One night on a swing May make a casual affair a permanent thing! If you can't keep casual Then she has you all Ready to hook And it's one horrible day— I can't look! Pay no attention To Mr. Smarty He's full of beans and banana oil He'll throw a wrench in This lovely party So just ignore him, don't let him spoil This glorious— Terrible— Victorious— Unbearable— Uproarious— Irreparable— Uxorious— Uxorious? Uxorious Occasion! One wonderful day Wonderful things can happen In a wonderful way! Wonderful girl meets wonderful boy What a wonderful chance to start A life full of wonder and joy! One wonderful day Somebody wonderful sweeps All your worries away! If the feeling's mutual Then the future will Burst into song And it's one wonderful day One marvelous day One beautiful day One glorious day One wonderful day all year long!
