Now's the time to fall in love
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
(American English)
Potatoes are cheaper
Tomatoes are cheaper
Now's the time
To fall in love
Why, the butcher, the baker,
And the candlestick maker
All gave their price
A downward shove
bzzzz ... boom
Grab yourself someone
To fry your eggs and bacon
Why, she can live just like a queen
On what you're makin'
'Cause this and that's a lot cheaper
And a flat's a lot cheaper
So, Honey, now's the time
To fall in love
(British English)
Potatoes are reduced in price
Tomatoes cost considerably less
Now's the time
To jolly well, ah, fall in love
There's many a spinster
In good old Westminster
Who's looking for
A blooming turtle dove, ah, ah, ah, ah
In America they drink
This beastly coffee
Wed an English lass
And 'ave your tea and toffee
King George expects every marriage
To fill up a carriage
So, now's the time
To jolly well fall in love
