Two At A Time lyrics

How did the animals enter the ark? Two at a time, two at a time Every elephant, every lark? Two at a time, two at a time Back off the boat with a baby to raise? Two at a time, two at a time And how did the animals go to their graves? One at a time. So don’t delay Send somebody in It’s a slow decay Waiting for him How many voices make harmony’s bliss? Two at a time, two at a time How many lips do you need for a kiss? Two at a time, two at a time On how many knees do I kneel to pray? Two at a time, two at a time As how many evenings slip into the day? One at a time. So don’t delay Send somebody in It’s a slow decay Waiting for him How many lovers out strolling the block? How many hands do they hold as they walk? How many faces look up at the stars? And how many others alone in the bars? One at a time. So don’t delay Send somebody in It’s a slow decay Waiting for him
