da-da, da-da, this is my answer true.
You're half crazy to think I would marry you.
There won't be any marriage if you can't afford a carriage.
Because I'll be damned if I'll be jammed on a bicycle built for two.

Any day that involves spouses on a tandem is a great day. Happy Anniversary. What's tomorrow's excuse to go for a ride?
