John Wesley Harding - Here Comes The Groom слова песни
With half an eye on historyAnd half an ounce of hopeSold his soul in the vestryMoney for old ropeBeen this way a million timesBut now his time is nighHe steps into the spotlightHe wants to say hiHello, were so glad you cameYouve never seen me beforeHes so ambitious, hes so gameBut yesterday he was dressed the sameThen he was so much easier to ignoreHere comes the groomBut the worlds not an inn and there isnt any room for youBut here he comesHe married into moneyJust to kiss and tellHe ripped the contract openHes out of his shellHe looks into a mirrorPractising his poiseBut it reflects so badlyThe groom just gets annoyedHe gasps, he forgets his linesHes never done that beforeThe scientists say hes doing fineThis fumbling frantic frankensteinSoon hes gonna do the dinosaurHere comes the groomHis fingers are on the cliff edgeHis head is going underIs that applause? No thats just thunder....Why do you keep saying I do? What does the bride mean to you? Play me some pucciniMake it heavy on the stringsWalk me to the altarThe choir cant even singRight side for the photographsLeft side for the kidsGod made me do itSo thats what I didHe coughs, loosens his bow-tieYouve never seen him beforeHe kisses the bride, oh you know whyLoves one more thing you can buyHe was unfaithful before he went outdoors(and now hes in the graveyard)Here comes the groom.....
