Music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, book by George Furth.
'The little Things You Do Together'
Savings you accrue together,
Looks You misconstrue together
Neighbors you annoy together,
Children you destroy together
.. Getting a divorce together
It's not so hard to be married,
It's much the cleanest of crimes.
It's not so hard to be married,
I've done it three or four times.
It's people that you hate together,
bait together, date together,
That makes marriage a joy.
'Sorry/Grateful'
Everything's different, / Nothing's changed,
Only maybe slightly / Rearranged
'You Could Drive a Person Crazy'
But turning off a person is the act of a man
Who likes to pull the hooks out of fish
You impersonate a person better
Than a zombie should
Exclusive you,/ Elusive you,
Will any person ever get the juices of you?
'Getting Married Today'
(Bride): I'll collapse, / In the Apse
'Marry Me a Little'
You promise whatever you like, / I'll never collect
'Side by Side'
One is lonely and two is boring,
Think what you can keep ignoring.
On the radio, they are overplaying a song with this line: 'even the wrong words rhyme'. Also, Madonna seemed to have gotten there earlier with 'one is a lonely number' than Aimee Mann.
