Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My dress, my dress
My fancy dress
I don't know why I'm wearing it
I must confess
My dress, my dress
I love my dress
Would someone tell me why I put it on
[Verse 2]
Yes yes your dress
Your fancy dress
Twas such a pleasure airing it
Restitching and repairing it
God bless your dress
It's one fine dress
And I will tell you why you put it on
Wedding bells will ring
Wedding bells will chime
Madam you're the hostess
And it's happy wedding time
[Verse 3]
Wedding bells will ding
Wedding bells will dong
Wedding bells will ding a ling
And we will ding along
[Verse 4]
Your dress, your dress
Your fancy dress
We're very very glad you put it on
[Verse 5]
Wedding guest have come
Wedding guest are here
Wedding guest are at the door
And soon they will appear
[Verse 6]
I'm Robert the bridegroom
I'm here to marry Janet
The star of Feldzieg's Follies
Whom I love a lot
[Verse 7]
I'm George, that's George
His best man George
I'm honored to be doing
What a best man ought
Ah Mrs Tottendale now don't worry
This whole wedding's going to run like clock work
[Verse 8]
Oh is there going to be a wedding
[Verse 9]
I'm Feldzieg producer
I lost my leading lady
I got to stop this wedding
Or I'm not worth squat
[Verse 10]
I'm Kitty, just Kitty
I'm came with Mr Feldzieg
I'll be a leading lady
If I get my shot
[Verse 11]
We're pastry chefs
We're pastry chefs
We cross our hearts we're pastry chefs
No fakery
A bakery
Is what we got
[Verse 12]
Aldolpho, Aldolpho
My name it is Aldolpho
I am the king of romance
So I kiss a lot
[Verse 13]
You are the king of romance
So you kiss a lot
[Verse 14]
Wedding bells will ring
Wedding bells will chime
Wedding bells will celebrate
A happy wedding time
[Verse 15]
Someone hasn't come
Someone isn't here
Where is Janet van de Graff
And when will she appear
[Verse 16]
It's Janet it's Janet
It's Janet van de Graff
[Verse 17]
I'm Janet, Janet van de Graff
Here to marry Robert Martin
Giving up a life of glamour
To tie the knot
[Verse 18]
Am I late
I'm the chaperone
Chaperone of Janet van de Graff
Maid of honor friend and confidante
And all that rot
Where's the bar?
[Verse 19]
A wedding, a wedding hooray
It's prohibition madam
A wedding, a wedding how gay
Good thing I brought my own
A wedding a wedding today
Champagne makes me drowsy
It's really happening
Truly happening
Almost happening
What is happening?
[Verse 20]
I'm Trix the aviatrix
The queen of the sky
I circle through the stratus
In my modern apparatus
I'm Trix the aviatrix
I've gotta fly
I'll see ya when they tie the knot
[Verse 21]
(A wedding, a wedding hooray)
(Ding a ling ding a ling ding a ling)
(A wedding, a wedding, a wedding's coming our way)
Well there you have it
(A wedding, a wedding today)
All the guests have arrived
We have a bride who's getting up the stage for love
(Ding a ling ding a ling ding a ling)
Her debonair bride group
(A wedding, a wedding, a wedding it's really happening)
A harried producer, jovial gangsters posing as pastry chefs
(Truly happening)
A flaky Korean, a Latin lothario
(Almost happening)
And an aviatrix
(Surely happening)
And of course my favorite character the drowsy chaperone
What more do you need to an evenings entertainment
[Verse 22]
Wedding bells will ring
Wedding bells will chime
Wedding bells will celebrate
A happy wedding time
Wedding bells will ding
Wedding bells will dong
Wedding bells will ding a ling
And we will ding along
