Surprise Party |
I had a surprise party for my baby |
Made everyone promise not to put my baby wise |
And now they’re talkin' about the way it turned out |
What a complete surprise |
Some intimate friends came to greet my baby |
And I was as busy as a bee around a hive |
I took a look at the clock |
Tickity tock |
My baby was about to arrive |
There were flowers on the table |
Somethin' extra special on ice |
I was glad that I was able |
To have everything nice |
Including chicken & rice |
Had everything all set & then we waited |
And I was delighted & excited as could be |
But when my baby walked in with somebody else |
The most surprised party was me |
I thought I was the perfect host |
I had the lights turned low |
I had my? |
right there at my elbow |
I had a lot of fancy knick knacks scattered about the place |
Made sure to have plenty of doilies chantilly lace |
Her favourite friends were gathered behind the big settee |
And after we surprised here we were all going to make whoopee |
Yes we planned to announce our engangement after we made some fudge |
But somebody double crossed me |
Someone who bore me a grudge |
I had everything all set & then we waited |
And I was delighted & excited as could be |
But when my baby walked in with somebody else |
The most surprised party was me |
