Josephine and Joe were in love
So in love, so much in love
For hours in the hall they would stay
When Josephine came in, she'd hear her mother say
"Josephine-a, please don't leana on the bell
When you smooch, please don't pusha the bell
I heard Mrs. Caruso telling Mrs. Soflynn
Somebody keeps ringing , but nobody comes in
You can squeeze all you please, it's all right
But don'ta keep us from sleep every night
When you makea love in the hall
Stay away from the wall!
Josephine, please don't leana
On the bell."
Well, you come home from work and I make you supper
I make a nice macroni
But you makea sit down, then you makea get up
A fella you call on the phone
Then you go to the park and sit in the dark
And make what they calla the "Pep!"
It's lipstick here, it's a hicey there
You don't get it from meat and Spaghet
I bring you up right and make you fat
With soup and pasta fasoli
But you stayout too late
And make you thin
What'sa matter, you make me a fool
