Wouldn't it be nice....

Wouldn't it be nice if we were older?  Ahm, have you seen folks older'n us? Mebbe not real perty, not all, most.....Then we wouldn't have to wait so long      For?And wouldn't it be nice to live together      Well, didn't plan well, my SS check is kinda piddly, could help.In the kind of world where we belong?      You talkin' CNN or Fox?
You know it's gonna make it that much better      My hip would still hurt, I'd still have an itchy itchy rash... you'd prolly steal my Cinnamon Toast Crunch.When we can say goodnight and stay together   I guess.  My history ain't real great though.
Wouldn't it be nice if we could wake upIn the morning when the day is new?    It's thataway already!  What day is it? Do I still work?  Uh oh, who'd I butt dial now?And after having spent the day together   Exhausted, and, you hogged the remote.Hold each other close the whole night through    No way. I snore like crazy, and.. I have a deathly fear of knocking the glass offa the end table that holds your choppers at night.  I wear a path to pee at night, you'd never get enough sleep. Night Angel Puff Puff, I'll be in the spare bedroom.
Happy times together we've been spending   What was your name again?I wish that every kiss was never ending           Well, I guess that was perty nice.  You didn't even mention my cig breath.Oh, wouldn't it be nice?   Mebbe baby
Maybe if we think and wish and hope and prayIt might come true          Is this song Wishin' & Hopin? Joel Olsteen, California Dreamin', or, Wouldn't It Be Nice? Baby, then there wouldn't be a single thing we couldn't do    I guess maybe we could get a volume discount on Tennis balls for our walkers... and, and... take advantage of BOGO at the Dollar General on Fixadent.Oh, we could be married (oh, we could be married)    MARRIAGE?   I'm getting the HEEEEEEEEBIIIEEEEE JEEEEEEEBIESSSSSS!And then we'd be happy (and then we'd be happy)Oh, wouldn't it be nice?    Press 2 for Spanish....
You know it seems the more we talk about it     I ain't talking about it, you ARE!It only makes it worse to live without it                Without what?But let's talk about it                                                Oh, wouldn't it be nice?                                            Let me think on it, baby baby, let me think on it.
Goodnight, my babySleep tight, my babyGoodnight, my babySleep tight, my baby                                              What was your name again?

Love, Victurd
