Lyrics
(Dressed as a pregnant, jilted bride, Prairie Dawn Pink takes the stage and sings.)

Prairie Dawn Pink: I'm in a nice bit of trouble, I confess; Somebody with me has had a game. I should by now be a proud and happy bride, But I've still got to keep my single name. I was proposed to by Obediah Binks In a very gentlemanly way; Lent him all my money so that he could buy a home, And punctually at twelve o'clock to-day… There was I, waiting at the church, Waiting at the church, waiting at the church; When I found he'd left me in the lurch, Lord, how it did upset me!

(She signals for Sesame Street Green . He enters.)

Prairie Dawn Pink: All at once, he sent me round a note Here's the very note, this is what he wrote…

Sesame Street Green: "Can't get away to marry you today, My wife, won't let me!"

Prairie Dawn Pink: Very good, Sesame Street Green.

Sesame Street Green: Uh, thank you, but it's just a song, you know, I don't have a wife.

Prairie Dawn Pink: Mmm-hmm. Not yet.

Sesame Street Green: I don't intend to have one, either.

Prairie Dawn Pink: Are you ready?!

Sesame Street Green: Uh, yes.

Prairie Dawn Pink: Ahem!

(They do one more chorus.)

Prairie Dawn Pink and Sesame Street Green : There was I, waiting at the church, Waiting at the church, waiting at the church.

Prairie Dawn Pink: When I found he'd left me in the lurch, Lord, how it did upset me!

Sesame Street Green: Woo, hoo.

Prairie Dawn Pink: All at once, he sent me round a note

Sesame Street Green: Here's the very note...

Prairie Dawn Pink: ...this is what he wrote…

Prairie Dawn Pink and Sesame Street Green : "Can't get away to marry you today, My wife, won't let me!"

(Applause.)

Sesame Street Green: Now will you take that silly pillow out from under your dress?

Prairie Dawn Pink: (aggressively) I like it! ( Sesame Street Green backs away)
