Don't Walk

performed by a Groom (Christopher Cerf)

The scene is a street where a Muppet wedding is about to take place ... if the groom can ever get past the "Don't Walk" sign, that is!

The organ is playing
You stand with your mom
And wait for a dream to come true
The star quarterback and the queen of the prom
Will finally whisper "I do."

Today is our wedding
I must not be late
How we've longed for this moment so sweet
But there in red letters
The stoplight of fate
Says "Don't Walk"
You can't cross the street

Darling, our marriage is doomed
Here stands your heartbroken groom
Wedding bells ring out all over the block
But the sign, the sign says "Don't Walk"
Yes, the sign, it says "Don't Walk"

Go on without me
Forget all about me
Stoplights and love can be cruel
Don't tell your mother
You`ll marry another
'Cause I`ve got to follow the rule

I'll love you whether
Or not we're together
Right here on the sidewalk I'll be
I last saw you wave
And you cried out you'll save
Your heart for the walklight and me

Darling, our marriage is doomed
Here stands your heartbroken groom
Wedding bells ring out all over the block
But the sign, it says "Don't Walk", "Don't Walk"
Yes, the sign, it says "Don't Walk"
