Happy to Keep His Dinner Warm - Bonnie Scott/Claudette Sutherland

New Rochelle New Rochelle

That's the place where the mansion will be

For me and the darling bright young man

I picked out for marrying me

He'll do well

I can tell

So it isn't a moment to soon

To plan on my life in New Rochelle

The wife of my darling tycoon

Honey you'll be a New Rochelle

Your darling tycoon will be here in the office

The future Mrs Finch is in for some lonely nights

Smitty I'm prepared for exactly that sort of thing

I'll be so happy to keep his dinner warm

While he goes on work and not work

Happy to keep his dinner warm

Till he comes wearily home from down town

I'll be there

Waiting until his mind is clear

While he looks through me

Right through me

Waiting to say

Good evening dear

I'm pregnant

What's new with you

From down town

I ought to be loved by a man

I respect

To bask in a glow

Of his perfectly understandable neglect

I ought to belong in the aura on his frown

Darling busy frown

Such heaven

Wearing the wifely uniform

While he goes on work

And not work

Happy to keep his dinner warm

Till he comes wearily home

From down town
