Matrimony |
I’ve no wish to hurry you, love |
But have you seen the time |
It’s quarter to ten and we’re supposed to be there at nine |
I don’t think the registrar |
Will be very pleased |
When we show up an hour late |
Like two frozen peas |
Both now facing for the first time |
Presently and past |
Something that begins with «M» |
And ends in «alas» |
More than not complete disaster |
Even form the start |
What could it be? |
It’s Matrimony |
I know how you dreamt about |
Being walked down the aisle |
But think of the money we’ll save |
And you will see it’s worthwhile |
It won’t please our mums and dads |
But they don’t even know |
Besides, if they did what’s the betting |
They wouldn’t even go |
You and me are all that matters |
Disregard the rest |
Trust your soon to be old man |
He knows what is best |
Very shortly now there’s going to be |
An answer from you |
Then one from me |
That’s matrimony |
Oh, I’m truly grateful for the little things in life |
That have made me so glad |
Every other hour that I spend with you |
Is not in the least bit sad |
Quite the opposite, in fact |
And if you don’t believe me |
Here’s the proof |
Ask me if I and I’ll say «Aye, I do» |
Oh, woah, woah, woah |
Oh, oh |
Ooh |
Woo! |
You and me are all that matters |
Disregard the rest |
Trust your soon to be old man |
He knows what is best |
Very shortly now there’s going to be |
An answer from you |
Then one from me |
That’s matrimony |
Marriage |
The joining together of two people |
For better or for worse |
Till death them do part |
Olé |
