Standing with you on this day
I take your hand and feel you shaking
Our new life will soon begin
Starting with these vows we're taking
Friends and loved ones gather round
So much joy I can hardly bear it
And suddenly it dawn son me
One day we'll have someone to share it
One and one make three
It's so right that it should be
A part of both our lives
I can see it in your eyes
A little boy or girl
Will be so welcome in our world
We'll be a family
When one and one make three
Lying here so safe and warm
Midnight shadows on the ceiling
Laughing softly in the dark
Then all at once here comes that feeling
Making love seems different now
Something that will last forever
My darling as I come to you
I know why god put us together
One and one make three
It's so right that it should be
A part of both our lives
I can see it in your eyes
A little boy or girl
Will be so welcome in our world
We'll be a family
When one and one make three
One and one make three
It's so right that it should be
A part of both our lives
I can see it in your eyes
A little boy or girl
Will be so welcome in our world
We'll be a family
When one and one make three'Cause he gets up in the morning,
And he goes to work at nine,
And he comes back home at five-thirty,
Gets the same train every time.
'Cause his world is built 'round punctuality,
It never fails.
And he's oh, so good,
And he's oh, so fine,
And he's oh, so healthy,
In his body and his mind.
He's a well respected man about town,
Doing the best things so conservatively.
And his mother goes to meetings,
While his father pulls the maid,
And she stirs the tea with councilors,
While discussing foreign trade,
And she passes looks, as well as bills,
At every suave young man.
'Cause he's oh, so good,
And he's oh, so fine,
And he's oh, so healthy,
In his body and his mind.
He's a well respected man about town,
Doing the best things so conservatively.
And he likes his own backyard,
And he likes his fags the best,
'Cause he's better than the rest,
And his own sweat smells the best,
And he hopes to grab his father's loot,
When Pater passes on.
'Cause he's oh, so good,
And he's oh, so fine,
And he's oh, so healthy,
In his body and his mind.
He's a well respected man about town,
Doing the best things so conservatively.
And he plays at stocks and shares,
And he goes to the regatta,
And he adores the girl next door,
'Cause he's dying to get at her,
But his mother knows the best about
The matrimonial stakes.
'Cause he's oh, so good,
And he's oh, so fine,
And he's oh, so healthy,
In his body and his mind.
He's a well respected man about town,
Doing the best things so conservatively.
