Original lyrics
ENCome live with me and be my love
And we will all the pleasures prove:
Buy a house! Build an extension!
A life of weary exhaustion
To fill our days - but wait! There's more!
I'll throw in a cavernous maw
Of carping kids and soiled rooms:
Our dishonest selves, self consume.
Drowning swimmers soon discover
Pairs together drown each other -
One may swim, but with two they can't:
Both are joined 'till death they part.
Come marry me, let it be soon:
Married women, oh! how they bloom!
Come live with me and be my love
And we will all the pleasures provee.
