Lyrics

[Intro] Hey ho, hey ho, what a wonderful wedding day [Verse 1] The ladybug and the centipede got married The ladybug and the centipede they wed On their wedding night I heard it said Fifty-one pairs of slippers were near that bed Hey ho, hey ho, what a wonderful wedding day [Verse 2] On their honeymoon they called each other "Darlin'" Their happiness was total and complete Until she slipped bеneath the sheet On her back fifty pair of cold, cold feet Hеy ho, hey ho, what a wonderful wedding day [Verse 3] One day the centipede he came home early And his ladybug looked slyer than a fox Sittin' 'neath the hollyhocks Knitting lots and lots of little socks She winked her eye with a twinkle that seemed to say Hey ho, what a wonderful wedding day
