Wedding Preparations
Sesame Street · Other Songs - Sesame Street
It's gotta be the best, forget about the rest
I'm getting married! And today it's all about the dress!
Luis: The suit. The suit! I gotta rent the suit
Beginning my new life - adventure with a wife
I'm getting married! And today it's all about the suit!
M: It's gotta be perfect in so many ways
To start me off right in the rest of my days
Buttons and bows and things that are bright
Or lacy like clouds and silky and white
It's gotta fit right this dress that I'm buying
It can't be too tight cause I'm gonna be flying!
L: This is too small and it feels much too tight
This doesn't look great, this just isn't right
M: Measuring, cutting and tacking it down
Putting together this wonderful gown
Stitching it up on a sewing machine -
The very best dress that you've ever seen
It's gotta fit right this dress that I'm buying
It can't be too tight 'cause I'm gonna be flying!
L: This is too big and it feels much too loose
I wanna look sharp - this might fit a moose
M:The dress, the dress, it's time to try the dress
L: This is too loud and it looks kinda flashy
I gotta look good, I wanna be classy
M: The dress, the dress, I think I got the dress
This dress that I have bought, looks better than I thought
I'm getting married......married!
L: Hold on, that's it, I found the perfect fit
Just see the crease so straight
No groom has looked so great
I'm getting married
M: Married
L: Married
M: The dress, the dress, I know this is the dress
To start a whole new life, adventure as a wife
L: The suit, the suit, I know this is the suit
To start a whole new life, Maria as my wife
Both: The suit/dress is perfect in every way for my wedding day
The suit/dress!!
