<br>
Already smitten with Finch, Rosemary fantasizes about life married to him. <br>
<br>
New Rochelle, New Rochelle,<br>
That's the place where the mansion will be<br>
For me and the darling bright young man<br>
I've picked out for marrying me. <br>
<br>
He'll do well, I can tell,<br>
So it isn't a moment too soon<br>
To plan on my life in New Rochelle,<br>
The wife of my darling tycoon. <br>
<br>
I'll be so happy to keep his dinner warm<br>
While he goes onward and upward;<br>
Happy to keep his dinner warm<br>
Till he comes wearily home from down town. <br>
<br>
I'll be there waiting until his mind is clear<br>
While he looks through me, right through me;<br>
Waiting to say, "Good evening, dear.<br>
I'm pregnant.  What's new with you from down town?" <br>
<br>
Oh, to be loved by a man I respect;<br>
To bask in the glow of his perfectly understandable neglect.<br>
Oh, to belong in the aura of his frown--darling busy frown.<br>
Such heaven--wearing the wifely uniform<br>
While he goes onward and upward.<br>
Happy to keep his dinner warm<br>
Till he comes wearily home from down town.<br>
