Melissa's a professor at the Penn State
Michael is a student and her friend
Michael says to Melissa, "Hey, I'll befriend you"
And every Friday he would give her a balloon

Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, bra
La la how the life goes on
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, bra
La la how the life goes on

Melissa takes her Sable to Petals Floral
Buys a big bouquet full of balloons
Takes them over to Michael, waiting at his door
And when she gives them to him, he begins to sing

Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, bra
La la how the life goes on
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, bra
La la how the life goes on

In a couple of years she gives him his college degree
And he invites her to his wedding
A few more years down the road

Happily ever after at the Penn State
Melissa teaches all of her classes
Michael stays at home and looks at his pictures
And in the evening they reminisce together

Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, bra
La la how the life goes on
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, bra
La la how the life goes on

In a couple of years she gives him his college degree
And he invites her to his wedding
A few more years down the road

Happily ever after at the Penn State
Melissa teaches all of her classes
Michael stays at home and looks at his pictures
And in the evening they reminisce together

Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, bra
La la how the life goes on
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, bra
La la how the life goes on

Ob-la-di-bla-da
