I’m late, I’m late, for a very important date.
He’s late for his wedding, and he’s running.
He might be going to his senior prom, probably late.
He’s singing while he’s running, “Oooh- Oooh.”
No, he was part of a wedding and he had to go to the bathroom, and he’s trying to make it back in time. He’s
loosening up.
His name is Tom, and he’s in the john.
He can hear people talking outside.
They say, “What you talkin’ about Tom?”
He’s in the hall now; he’s hoofin’ it trying to catch up.
He’s dancing. He is going to meet his bride to be.
He’s late, he’s late, for a very important date, going to meet up with his friends.
He’s dressed up for his special date.
He met his bride to be in church, or college, and they dated for a few years, no – months.
Her name is Allison.
He had an upset stomach.
He has a ticket, or keys, going to the theater.
“Here we go loopty-loo, here we go loopty-lie, here we go loopty-loo, all on a Saturday night.”
He better show up. Allison’s thinking, “What happened? Late as usual. Better not be having second thoughts.”
If he’s late for the wedding, what else will he be late for?
Allison is very mad, but she’s gonna continue waiting because it’s an important day and she wants to get
married.
He’s handsome, good lookin’, blonde, nice and tall, good singer, dancer, and has a great personality. He’s late,
but cute; still in trouble.
All the people at the church are waiting with Allison, their families.
He’s just behind the church and he’s got the key to the door.
If the key doesn’t work, oh dear he’s in trouble!
He’ll go to the next door; it’s too easy if the first one works.
He’ll walk, or run! He’s inside, just downstairs and really worried.
He has to walk around to the front door – but no one’s there.
They’re all at the grocery store looking for him.
No, he got to the church and changed his mind; those are car keys to get the hell out of dodge!
Either he changed his mind … or she changed hers!
He’ll go to the bar with his friends and forget he was supposed to get married.
The bride-to-be will cry and it will be a catastrophe!
By cell phone, she will get ahold of him and they will talk it out because he’s late.
His friend got mad and punched the drunk groom and told him to get back to the church.
He knocked some sense into him, and so did the father of the bride.
He’ll say, “I’m sorry.”
She’ll say, “How could you do that to me?”
He’ll say, “It was easy. I sound like I’m drunk but I’m not!”
They kiss and make up.
Yeah, they get married.
