When Three Is Company
[Verse]
- (SHE.) Some wise fellow said that two is company
- And one more around will make a crowd of three,
- (HE) Don't let that bother you
- When you start to bill and coo
- (BOTH.) For as you'll see,
- There will always be
- One more to join your little company!
[Refrain]
- (SHE.) While she and you are two it's true,
- At times you're not alone there,
- You've a Chaper one there,
- (HE.) Cupid's the little stranger,
- And so it's easy to see,
- (BOTH.) That is the only time when three is company!
[Verse]
- (HE.) When you're really truly deep in love, why care?
- Whether all the cupids in the world are there,
- (SHE) Say ev'ry silly thing
- Said by all from clown to king,
- (BOTH.) No one the worse,
- will ever be
- You're one of quite a goodly company!
[Refrain]
- (SHE.) While she and you are two it's true,
- At times you're not alone there,
- You've a Chaper one there,
- (HE.) Cupid's the little stranger,
- And so it's easy to see,
- (BOTH.) That is the only time when three is company!
