Make a Miracle Lyrics by Ray Bolger

0

[AMY]
\nI just read a book on what's to be expected
\nThey'll have wireless telegraphy perfected
\nElectric lights and fountain pens
\nAnd machines by which a lie can be detected
\n
\n[CHARLEY, spoken]
\nLook, this is 1892
\nNever mind the miracles, Amy
\nWhat about us?
\n
\n[AMY]
\nHorseless carriages on the road
\nBreakfast cereals that explode
\n
\n[CHARLEY]
\nI know, I know, I know, I know, I know
\nSomeday they'll have horseless carriages that fly
\n
\n[AMY]
\nHorseless carriages that fly
\n
\n[CHARLEY]
\nHorseless carriages and someday
\nThey'll be roaring all about the sky
\n
\n[AMY]
\nSpelling out slogans
\n"Buy a beer at Hogan's"
\n
\n[CHARLEY]
\nBut who knows when that age of miracles will come to be?
\nSo meanwhile, darling, make a miracle and marry me
\n
\n[AMY]
\nHorseless carriages, I
\nCan't believe it, no I can't
\n
\n[CHARLEY]
\nAnd I will see the wonders of the future in your eyes
\nBrightly gleaming
\nWonders that I challenge modern science to devise
\nOh yes, I know that
\nSomeday, after we've grown very, very old
\n
\n[AMY]
\nOh, so very, very old
\n
\n[CHARLEY]
\nOld enough to bury
\nSomeone, rather bright, will cure the common cold
\n
\n[AMY, spoken]
\nNot the British!
\nNever the British!
\n
\n[CHARLEY]
\nAnd someday just a small white pill will feed a family
\nBut meanwhile, let's have steak and kidney pie
\nAnd meanwhile, let's be sure our feet are dry
\nAnd meanwhile, darling, make that miracle and marry me
\n
\n[AMY]
\nHorseless carriages, I
\nCan't believe it, no, I
\nCure the common cold, I
\nCan't believe it, no I can't
\n
\n[CHARLEY, spoken]
\nSomeday!
\n
\n[CHARLEY]
\nThey'll be wearing skirts way up to here
\n
\n[AMY, spoken]
\nDaring skirts way up to here?
\n
\n[CHARLEY]
\nWearing skirts way up to—
\nSomeday, with a neckline equally sincere
\n
\n[AMY, spoken]
\nAh, the future, to peer into the future
\n
\n[CHARLEY]
\nA vision that, alas, I may not be alive to see
\nSo meanwhile, darling, make a miracle and marry me
\n
\n[AMY]
\nWearing skirts way up to—
\nCan't believe it, no I can't
\n
\n[CHARLEY]
\nAnd I will see the wonders of the future in your eyes
\nBrightly gleaming
\nWonders that I challenge modern science to devise
\nOh yes, I know that
\nSomeday, when your mind keeps harboring a grouch
\n
\n[AMY, spoken]
\nOuch!
\n
\n[CHARLEY]
\nSomeday, Doctor Bones will place you on a couch
\n
\n[AMY, spoken]
\nCouch?
\n
\n[CHARLEY, spoken]
\nUh huh
\n
\n[CHARLEY]
\nAnd listen to your sad, sad story for a handsome fee
\nBut meanwhile, let's get one big Morris chair
\nAnd meanwhile, tell me all your troubles there
\nAnd meanwhile, darling, make that miracle and marry me
\n
\n[AMY & CHARLEY, spoken]
\nHorseless carriages, I (Marry me)
\nCan't believe it, no I (Marry me)
\nWearing skirts way up to— (Marry me)
\nCan't believe it, no I—
\n
\n[CHARLEY, spoken]
\nMarry me!
\n
\n[AMY, spoken]
\nReally, Mr. Bolger!
\nAll right
\n
\n[CHARLEY, spoken]
\nHuh?\n\n
