Makin' Whoopee Lyrics - At Last - Cyndi Lauper

Every time I hear that march from Lohengrin 

I am always on the outside lookin' in 

Maybe, that is why I see the funny side 

When I see somebody's brother take a bride 

Weddings make a lot of people sad 

But if you're not the one, they're not so bad 

Another bride, another June 

Another sunny honeymoon 

Another season, another reason 

For makin' whoopee 

A lot of shoes, a lot of rice 

The groom is nervous 

Who can blame him? He answers twice 

It's really killin', but he's so willin' to make whoopee 

Picture a little love nest, I got you 

Down where the roses cling, it's very romantic 

Picture that same sweet love nest 

Think, what a year can bring, I'm with you 

He's washing dishes and baby clothes, he should 

He's so ambitious, not really, he even sews, 2003 babe 

But don't forget folks, that's what you get folks 

For makin' whoopee 

Another year, what, or maybe less 

What's this I hear, can't you guess? No 

She feels neglected and he's suspected, that's right 

Of makin' whoopee 

She sits alone 'most every night 

He doesn't phone nor even write, I forgot the number 

He says, he's busy, yeah but she says, is he? 

He's makin' whoopee 

He doesn't make much money 

Yeah, five hundred thousand per, who told ya that? 

Some judge who thinks he's funny 

Says, you pay six to her 

He says, "Now judge, what if I fail?" 

Judge says, "Bud, right into jail" Whoops 

You better keep her, I think it's cheaper 

Than makin' whoopee 

Yeah, don't forget, folks 

That's what you get, folks 

For makin' whoopee
