Stephen Sondheim
The Little Things You Do Together
[JOANNE]
It's the little things you do together
Do together
Do together
That make perfect relationships
The hobbies you pursue together
Savings you accrue together
Looks you misconstrue together
That make marriage a joy
Mmm-hmm...

It's the little things you share together
Swear together
Bear together
That make perfect relationships
The concerts you enjoy together
Neighbors you annoy together
Children you destroy together
That keep marriage intact

It's not so hard to be married
When two manoeuvre as one
It's not so hard to be married
And oh my God is it fun!

It's sharing little winks together
Drinks together
Kinks together
That make marriage a joy
It's bargains that you shop together
Cigarettes you stop together
People that you drop together
That make perfect relationships
Uh-huh...
Mmm-hmm...
[FRIENDS]
It's not wedded bliss and what happens in bed that
Allows you to get through the worst
It's "I do" and "you don't" and "nobody said that"
And "who brought the subject up first?"
It's the little things
The little things, the little things, the little things

The little ways you try together
Cry together
Lie together
That make perfect relationships
Becoming a cliche together
Growing old and grey together
Withering away together
That makes marriage a joy

It's not so hard to be married
It's much the simplest of crimes
It's not so hard to be married -

[JOANNE]
I've done it three or four times

[FRIENDS]
It's the people that you hate together
Bait together
Date together
That make marriage a joy
It's things like using force together
Shouting till you're hoarse together
Getting a divorce together
That make perfect relationships
Uh-huh...
Kiss-kiss...
Mmm-hmm...
