Mr. & Mrs.

Mr Come Lately

with Mrs Came Late

they went to theatre

they're typically late



the curtain was half raised

the plot took a twist

and Mr. Come Lately just stared at his wrist



these whom I speak of are my friends

gentlemen and gentlewomen

can't wait for their lives to begin

oh so exciting then



the Goose and the Raisin

were painting the town

their quips and their banter

intensely profound

the radio spoon fed them ditties to hum

the Goose and the Raisin just couldn't have fun



these whom I speak of are my friends

gentlemen and gentlewomen

can't wait for their lives to begin

oh so exciting then



I've waited and waited

for a youth of my own

my hair used to black

it's white as a bone



these whom I speak of are my friends

gentlemen and gentlewomen

can't wait for their lives to begin

oh so exciting then
