LyricsAdelaide's Lament

The average

Unmarried female

Basically insecure

Due to some

Long frustration

May react with

Psychosomatic

Symptoms

Difficult to endure

Affecting the upper

Respiratory tract

In other words

Just from

Waiting around

For that plain little

Band of gold

A person can

Develop a cold

You can spray

Her wherever you

Figure

The streptococci

Lurk

You can give her

A shot for

Whatever she's got

But it just

Won't work

If she's tired of

Getting the fisheye

From the hotel clerk

A person can

Develop a cold

It says here

The female

Remaining single

Just in the

Legal sense

Shows a neurotic

Tendency

See note

See note note

Chronic organic

Syndromes

Toxic or

Hypertense

Involving the eye

The ear and

The nose and throat

In other words

Just from wondering

Whether the

Wedding is on

Or off

A person can

Develop a cough

You can feed her

All day with

The Vitamin A

And the Bromo Fizz

But the medicine

Never gets

Anywhere near

Where the trouble is

If she's getting

A kind of a name

For herself

And the name

Ain't his

A person can

Develop a cough

And furthermore

Just from stalling

And stalling

And stalling

The wedding trip

A person can

Develop La Grippe

When they get

On the train

For Niagara

And she can hear

Church bells chime

The compartment

Is air-conditioned

And the mood sublime

Then they get off

At Saratoga

For the

Fourteenth time

A person can

Develop La Grippe

La Grippe

La post nasal drip

With the wheezes

And the sneezes

And a sinus that's

Really a pip

From a lack of

Community property

And a feeling

She's getting too old

A person can

Develop a bad

Bad cold
