SONG
Just get me to the Church on time. Giuseppe and Pinocchio were in the dining hall having Frosted Corn Flakes when Pinocchio burst out into a song. He was singing "IM getting married in the Mourning." A Gershwin tune from a Movement in the FIFTIES to promote old movies late at night. [My Fair Lady]
I'm getting married in the morning Ding dong the bells are gonna chime Pull out the stopper, let's have a whopper But get me to the church on time I've got to be there in the morning Spruced up and looking in my prime Girls come and kiss me, show how you'll miss me But get me to the church on time If I am dancing, roll up the floor If I am whistling, *whew* me out the door For I'm getting married in the morning Ding dong the bells are gonna chime Kick up a rumpus, but don't lose the compass And get me to the church, get me to the church Be sure and get me to the church on time I'm getting married in the morning Ding dong the bells are gonna chime Stock me or jail me, stamp me and mail me But get me to the church on time I've got to be there in the morning Spruced up and looking in my prime Some bloke who's able, lift up the table But get me to the church on time If I am flying, then shoot me down If I am wooing, get her out of town For I'm getting married in the morning Ding dong the bells are gonna chime Feather and tar me, call out the army But get me to the church, get me to the church Be sure and get me to the church on time "How did yew learn that song Pinocchio", Giuseppe asked carefully "are you staying up late for television.?" In 1881, Collodi wrote a story for "Il giornalino dei bambini." He was in urgent need of money, and his "Pinocchio" was born out of inspiration and out of necessity. In sending in the story, Collodi wrote to the editor: "Ti mando questa bambinata, fanne quello che ti pare, ma se me la strappi, pagamela bene, per farmi venire la voglia di seguitarla." (I am sending you this children's piece. Do with it what you see fit. But if you snatch it up, pay it well, so that I will feel like continuing it.) The story was called "Avventure di un burattino," the adventures of a puppet. He began this very important story in Tucson, Arizona where the puppet lives now with his homeless friends. Giuseppe tossed the empty bowls out and laughed that is a Adult song meant to be about marriage something a little wooden puppet boy should knoe nothing about stay young forever my burattino Niño.
