The Wedding
You asked for nothingThat's what I gave youAsh for ashesDust for dustYour trust is touchingBut misguidedBride, I'll be yours for one night I wanderI wonder really what you saw in meI'm not your type at allAnd all the angels hold their breathAs my eyes rest upon the pretty girlWho leads the choirThey cry out their disgust for meThey are crying for my brideWho smiles in white, does not suspectMy next move in the gameAgain!"I'll honor you and cherish you"Again!"I'll share my worldly goods"Again... 'til death when we're partedSongtexteOnly words don't mean a thingI think of ways to runThe sun paints patternsOn the stained-glass windowsWidows in their Sunday bestReflect about when they too were bridesThey can't hide their feelingsAs they steal seconds from an ageThey'll never see again.Again!"With this ring I pledge myself"Again!("I do. I do. Shoo be doo doo wah...")Why do we have to be so humbleAnd mumble words we never mean?It's obscene, the ultimate obscenityThis serenity on SundayWe're stars on SundaysSmiles on straight!Maybe one day rewards will be there for usJust for us in heavenJust for us amen amenThe end.
