An Armstrong-Bateman Recipe
Not everyone believes in love
That people fit like hand and glove
But if you've got the guts to try
You should accept and not deny
That rules keep every game alive
And that you need a certain drive
To get along at day and night
And win together every fight
For starters, there is for the bride
in order never to collide
advice to be a diplomat
instead of using a baseball bat
Your husband will be pleased to know
if you will always kindly show
that he's the one who is in charge
you let him think so, by and large
For it might be nice to have a point
But if your unmistakably joined
Just one of you can always be right
the other one's flag must surely be white
And if you think it through, in the end
the one who gives in has the upper hand
so the wife should be diplomatic and wise
and rule the place in complete disguise
For the groom there is only one thing to do
Let her decide what is good for you
She knows and will do it anyway
and it's easier if you don't go astray
Just stay in line and keep her happy
and your daily life will never be scrappy
If you know how to take care for number one
both your love will stay and your deed is done
I hope that your days will be filled with joy
Altogether you're just a girl and a boy
who fell in love and wanted to share
more that just a tiny affair
You're prepared to give to one another
more of yourself than to any other
and what you're giving is all your heart
May you always keep it and never part
