Drowsy Chaperone Cast - Fancy Dress Lyrics

TOTTENDALE
My dress! My dress!
My Fancy
I don't know why I'm wearing it
I must confess
My dress! My dress!
I love my dress
Would someone tell me why I put it on?

UNDERLING
Yes! Yes! Your dress
Your fancy dress
'Twas such a pleasure airing it
Re-stitching and repairing it
God bless your dress!
It's one fine dess!
And I will tell you why you put it on
Wedding bells will ring
Wedding bells will chime
Madam you're the hostess
And it's happy wedding time

UNDERLING & TOTTENDALE
Wedding bells will ding
Wedding bells will dong
Wedding bells will ding-a-ling
And we will ding along

STAFF
Your dress! Your dress!
Your fancy dress
We're very very glad you put it on

UNDERLING

ALL
Wedding guests are here
Wedding guests are at the door
And soon they will appear

I'm here to marry Janet
That star of Feldzieg's Follies

His Best Man George
I'm honored to be doing
What a Best Man ought
(spoken)
Ah, Mrs. Tottendale. Now, don't worry.
This whole wedding's going to run like clock-work.

TOTTENDALE
(spoken)
Oh, is there going to be a wedding?

FELDZIEG
I'm Feldzieg, producer
I lost my leading lady
I got to stop this wedding
Or I'm not worth squat

KITTY

I came with Mr. Feldzieg
I'll be a leading lady
If I get my shot

And when will she appear?

Giving up a life of glamour
To tie the knot
