As I was practicing this Beatles feel-good singalong ska classic for the next show, I updated it from Desmond and Molly to Jason and Maile.
Jason has a place off Congress Avenue,
Maille is a checker at HEB
Jason says to Maile will you go have lunch
by the turtle pond with me up at UT?
Obladi Oblada life goes on, bra! Oh oh how the life goes on.
Jason takes her 5 years later to that grocery store,
kneels in front of the bubble gum machines,
Puts a quarter in and opens up the prize,
inside his grandma’s heirloom Opal wedding ring.
Obladi Oblada life goes on, bra! Oh oh how the life goes on.
In a couple of years they have built a home sweet home
With a couple of cats running in the yard of Jason and Maile Broccoli-Hickey Molin
Happy ever after in their Austin place,
Maile let’s Anais lend a hand.
Jason stays at home and does her curly hair
and in the evening Maile sings in with the band.
Obladi Oblada life goes on, bra! Oh oh how the life goes on.
