Come live with me and be my love And we will all the pleasures prove: Buy a house! Build an extension! A life of weary exhaustion To fill our days - but wait! There's more! I'll throw in a cavernous maw Of carping kids and soiled rooms: Our dishonest selves, self consume. Drowning swimmers soon discover Pairs together drown each other - One may swim, but with two they can't: Both are joined 'till death they part. Come marry me, let it be soon: Married women, oh! how they bloom! Come live with me and be my love And we will all the pleasures provee.
