2nd verse onwards—

Then one fine day, in the month of May,
She found her big romance.
He was smart and sleek, with a scar on his cheek,
And a pair of drainpipe pants.
And she thought, "With you, I could be so true
Through all the years to come!"--
For she loved the gay, abandoned way
That he chewed his chewing gum.

CHORUS: To me rite-fal-la, to me itty(or titty!)-fal-lal,
To me itty-bitty(or titty)-fal-lal-day.

It started well, because he fell
For all her girlish charms,
But he had some doubt, when he caught her out,
In someone else's arms ---
And he said, "Look here! You know, my dear,
This is going a bit too far!"
And he went quite white, and he sloshed her, right
In the middle of her cha-cha-cha. CHORUS

So he went before a man of the law,
Who said, "This will not do!
I've had enough of this sort of stuff
That we get from the likes of you!"
And she was peeved when he received
A longish term in "clink".
In a fit of pique, she married the Greek,
And now she's dressed in mink! CHORUS TWICE.
