The Easter Parade

Never saw you look
quite so pretty before
Never saw you dressed
quite so lovely what's more
I could hardly wait to keep our date
this lovely Easter morning
And my heart beat fast
as I came through the door
For
In your Easter bonnet,
with all the frills upon it
You'll be the grandest lady
in the Easter parade
I'll be all in clover
and when they look you over
I'll be the proudest fellow
in the Easter parade
On the Avenue
Fifth Avenue
The photographers will snap us
And you'll find that you're
In the rotogravure
Oh, I could write a sonnet
about your Easter bonnet
And of the girl I'm taking
to the Easter parade
[alternate bridge for Great Britain:]
To the Park we'll go
Round Rotten Row
The photographers will snap us
And then you'll be seen
In the smart magazine

Here Comes
Peter Cottontail
Here comes Peter Cottontail,
Hoppin' down the bunny trail,
Hippity, hoppity,
Easter's on its way.
Bringin' every girl & boy
Baskets full of Easter joy,
Things to make your Easter bright and gay.
He's got jelly beans for Tommy,
Colored eggs for sister Sue,
There's an orchid for your Mommy
And an Easter bonnet, too.
Oh! here comes Peter Cottontail,
Hoppin' down the bunny trail,
Hippity hoppity,
Happy Easter day.
Here comes Peter Cottontail,
Hoppin' down the bunny trail,
Look at him stop,
and listen to him say:
"Try to do the things you should."
Maybe if you're extra good,
He'll roll lots of Easter eggs your way.
You'll wake up on Easter morning
And you'll know that he was there
When you find those choc'late bunnies
That he's hiding ev'rywhere.
Oh! here comes Peter Cottontail,
Hoppin' down the bunny trail,
Hippity hoppity,
Happy Easter day.
