Frank Loesser - Happy to Keep His Dinner Warm lyrics

[SMITTY] You know, Rosemary, I have seen some ambitious characters around here but this boy is the eagerest [beaver?] of them all [ROSEMARY] New Rochelle, or maybe White Plains? No... New Rochelle [SMITTY] What are you talking about? [ROSEMARY] New Rochelle [SMITTY] What about it? [ROSEMARY] That's the place where the mansion will be For me and the darling bright young man I picked out for marrying me He'll do well I can tell So it isn't a moment to soon To plan on my life in New Rochelle The wife of my darling tycoon [SMITTY] Honey, you'll be in New Rochelle. Your darling tycoon will be here in the office. The future Mrs. Finch is in for some lonely nights [ROSEMARY] I'm prepared for exactly that sort of thing... I'll be so happy to keep his dinner warm While he goes onward... and upward Happy to keep his dinner warm 'Till he comes wearily home from downtown I'll be there Waiting until his mind is clear While he looks through me Right through me Waiting to say "Good evening dear I'm pregnant What's new with you From down town?" I ought to be loved By a man I respect To bask in the glow Of his perfectly, understandable neglect I ought to belong in the aura on his frown Darling busy frown Such heaven! Wearing the wifely uniform While he goes onward And upward Happy to keep his dinner warm 'Till he comes wearily home From downtown
