Lah-Di-Dah |
| Now we’re agreed that we’re in love |
| We’ll have to face the lah-di-dah, |
| The eyewash, all of the fancy pantomime |
| I love you very much |
| I’ll try love, I’ll bill and coo |
| With your gruesome Auntie Susan |
| I’ll stay calm, I’ll play it cool |
| I’ll let your tetchy uncles |
| Get me back up, cross my heart |
| And I shan’t get shirty when they say I look peculiar |
| I’ll be nice to your mother, |
| I’ll come all over lah-di-dah |
| Although she always gets up me nose |
| I love you very much |
| And so I’ll smile and I’ll acquiesce |
| When she invites me to caress |
| Her scabby cat |
| I’ll sit still while she knits |
| And witters, cross my heart |
| And I shan’t lay a finger on the crabby old batface |
| I’ll be polite to your daddy, |
| Frightfully lah-di-dah |
| Although he always bores me to my boots, |
| I love you very much |
| And so I won’t boo and hiss |
| When he starts to reminisce |
| I won’t drop off, I won’t flare up The runs he used to score |
| And how he won the war, cross my heart |
| But I’ll have to grit me teeth when he goes on about his rupture |
| I’ll behave at the wedding breakfast |
| I’ll be lah-di-dah |
| So help me, hearty toasts and risky jokes |
| I love you very much |
| So help me, I’ll force a laugh |
| For the flicking photographs |
| So have no fear, I won’t turn tail |
| I won’t run amuck when the females chuck |
| Confetti in my ears |
| And cross me heart love, I’ll keep off the pale ale |
| When we’re off on our own |
| No more lah-di-bloody-dah |
| I promise, we just won’t have the time |
| We won’t have time for such |
| Such fancy pantomimes |
| I love you far too much |
