happy to keep his dinner warm - frank loesser lyrics

[smitty, spoken]
you know, rosemary, i have seen some ambitious characters around here but this boy is the eagerest beaver of them all

[rosemary, spoken]
new rochelle, or maybe white plains? no…

(sung)
new rochelle

[smitty, spoken]
what are you talking about?

[rosemary]
new rochelle

[smitty, spoken]
what about it?

[rosemary]
that’s the place where the mansion will be
for me and the darling bright young man
i picked out for marrying me

he’ll do well
i can tell
so it isn’t a moment too soon
to plan on my life in new rochelle
the wife of my darling tyc–n

[smitty, spoken]
honey, you’ll be in new rochelle. your darling tyc–n will be here in the office. the future mrs. finch is in for some lonely nights

[rosemary, spoken]
i’m prepared for exactly that sort of thing…

(sung)
i’ll be so happy to keep his dinner warm
while he goes onward… and upward
happy to keep his dinner warm
’till he comes wearily home from downtown
i’ll be there

waiting until his mind is clear
while he looks through me
right through me
waiting to say
“good evening dear
i’m pregnant
what’s new with you
from down town?”

i ought to be loved
by a man i respect
to bask in the glow
of his perfectly, understandable neglect
i ought to belong in the aura on his frown
darling busy frown
such heaven!

wearing the wifely uniform
while he goes onward
and upward
happy to keep his dinner warm
’till he comes wearily home
from downtown
