Make a Miracle

Lyrics

[Intro: Frank Loesser & Lynn Loesser] Darling Darling, what are you reading? Popular Mechanics Well, will you put it down a minute? I wanna talk to you, this is important Listen to me It's about our, well, it's about our future Huh? I wanna tell you [Verse 1: Frank Loesser & Lynn Loesser] Someday there'll be horseless carriages that fly Horseless carriages that fly Horseless carriages and someday They'll be roaring all about the sky Spelling out slogans "Buy a beer at Hogan's" Yes, but who knows when that age of miracles'll come to be? So meanwhile, darling, make a miracle and marry me Horseless carriages, I can't believe it, no I can't imagine Oh, will you listen? This is awfully important This is about us Hmm? [Verse 2: Frank Loesser & Lynn Loesser] Someday we'll have stereopticons that move Stereopticons that move Stereopticons appearing in cathedrals larger than the Louvre How romantic Yeah, colossal, gigantic Yes, but who knows when that great, great cultural event will shine? So meanwhile, darling, make a miracle and say you're mine Stereopticons, I can't believe it, no I can't imagine Will you pay attention to me? This is about our future Huh? It's important [Bridge: Frank Loesser] And I will see the wonders of the future in your eyes Brightly, brightly This is about wonders that I challenge modern science to devise Oh no It's not a magazine [Verse 3: Frank Loesser & Lynn Loesser] Someday, after we've grown very, very old We've grown very, very old Old enough to bury Someone, rather bright, will cure the common cold Not the British! Achoo! Excuse me, go ahead And someday just a small white pill will feed a family Oh, but meanwhile, let's have steak and kidney pie And meanwhile (Just imagine), let's be sure our feet are dry And meanwhile (Just imagine) Darling, make a miracle And marry me (Just imagine all those horseless carriages) I can't believe it, no I— Stereopticons, I can't believe it (Marry me) No, I can't (Will you listen to me?) Cure the common cold, I can't believe it (I'm appealing) No, I can't Oh, what's the use?
