Fancy Dress lyrics
Fancy Dress
TOTTENDALE
My dress! My dress!
My Fancy
I don't know why I'm wearing it
I must confess
My dress! My dress!
I love my dress
Would someone tell me why I put it on?
UNDERLING
Yes! Yes! Your dress
Your fancy dress
'Twas such a pleasure airing it
Re-stitching and repairing it
God bless your dress!
It's one fine dess!
And I will tell you why you put it on
Wedding bells will ring
Wedding bells will chime
Madam you're the hostess
And it's happy wedding time
UNDERLING & TOTTENDALE
Wedding bells will ding
Wedding bells will dong
Wedding bells will ding-a-ling
And we will ding along
STAFF
Your dress! Your dress!
Your fancy dress
We're very very glad you put it on
UNDERLING
Wedding guest have come
ALL
Wedding guests are here
Wedding guests are at the door
And soon they will appear
ROBERT
I'm Robert, the bridegroom
I'm here to marry Janet
That star of Feldzieg's Follies
Whom I love a lot
GEORGE
I'm George! That's George!
His Best Man George
I'm honored to be doing
What a Best Man ought
(spoken)
Ah, Mrs. Tottendale. Now, don't worry.
This whole wedding's going to run like clock-work.
TOTTENDALE
(spoken)
Oh, is there going to be a wedding?
FELDZIEG
I'm Feldzieg, producer
I lost my leading lady
I got to stop this wedding
Or I'm not worth squat
KITTY
I'm Kitty! Just Kitty!
I came with Mr. Feldzieg
I'll be a leading lady
If I get my shot
GANGSTER 1
We're pastry chefs
GANGSTER 2

GANGSTER 1 & GANGSTER 2
We cross our hearts we're pastry chefs
GANGSTER 1
No fakery
GANGSTER 2
A bakery!
GANGSTER 1 & GANGSTER 2
Is what we got
ALDOLPHO
Aldolpho! Aldolpho!
My name it is Aldolpho
I am the King of Romance
So I kiss a lot
ALL
You are the King of Romance
So you kiss a lot
Wedding bells will ring!
Wedding bells will chime!
Wedding bells will celebrate
A happy wedding time
Someone hasn't come
Someone isn't here
Where is Janet Van De Graaff
And when will she appear?
It's Janet! It's Janet
It's Janet Van De Graaff
JANET
I'm Janet, Janet Van De Graaff
Here to marry Robert Martin
Giving up a life of glamour
To tie the knot
DROWSY

Am I late?

Maid of Honor, friend and confidante
And all that rot

Almost happening

In my modern apparatus

Hooray!

A wedding's coming our way
A wedding, a wedding, today
Ding-a-ling, ding-a-ling,

Truly happening
Almost happening
Surely happening
Wedding bells will ring!
Wedding bells will chime!
Wedding bells will celebrate
A happy wedding time
Wedding bells will ding
Wedding bells will dong
Wedding bells will ding-a-ling
And we will ding
Along!
