Buzz. Buzz. Buzz.....

“No! No Sam. Of course we understand. Who wants to play poker after only one
month of marriage. You’re the luckiest slob on earth, Sam. Goodbye. I’ve
never heard him sound happier. And you know what that means…?”

It isn’t working. It isn’t working
I hate to tell you, it isn’t working
I knew the minute I got the call
that it isn’t working at all.

It isn’t working, it isn’t working
I bet you fifty, it isn’t working
he didn’t say so, but I could tell
that it isn’t working so well.

And lately he looks like a million dollars
gets you to smillin' a rat
lately the strip has been twice as funny
what could be clearer than that

Buzz. Buzz. Buzz....

“For "Early Bird" this is Chip Salisbury. I’m happy to report, that Tess Harding
is back from her belated honeymoon, and after three months of marriage I’ve
never seen her looking happier. Good morning, and have a pleasant weekend.”

It isn’t working , it isn’t working
I got a feeling, it isn’t working
Her look of rapture, her girlish glee
says it isn’t working to me.

It isn’t working, it isn’t working
I got an instinct, it isn’t working
she’s such an angel around the show
that it isn’t working, I know.

Buzz. Buzz.

“You should see my missus and her mister. All day long it’s hugging and kissing.
Four months already. And they still can’t keep their hands off each other.”

It isn’t working, it isn’t working
Who knows them better? it isn’t working
They lock the bedroom, they never fight
no it isn’t working allright.

I can remember when she was single
she could be grouchy and grim.
Now, ev’ry morning it’s ‘Hello Helga’
She's got a problem with him.

It isn’t working, it isn’t working
Who knows them better, it isn’t working.
We’ve got to tell you, they didn’t fight
no it isn’t working allright.

“Miss Harding’s office? Oh, hello senator. How do I think the marriage is
going? Oh, six months of bliss. Absolutely bliss.”

It isn’t working, it isn’t working.
I get a feeling, it isn’t working
she’s just as charming as she can get
no it isn’t working, I bet.

And yesterday morning she got in early
spreading her charm like the plague
acting as though she’s in seventh heaven
must got to have trouble with Craig.

It isn’t working, it isn’t working
I got to tell you, it isn’t working
he is so charming as he can get
no it isn’t working with Craig.

No it isn’t working
no it isn’t working
no it isn’t working at all.
