I Write Sins Not Tragedies

 

Oh, well imagine

As I’m pacing the pews in a church corridor

And I can’t help but to hear

No, I can’t help but to hear an exchanging of words

 

“What a beautiful wedding

What a beautiful wedding!” says a bridesmaid to a waiter

“Oh yes, but what a shame

What a shame the poor groom’s bride is a whore “

 

I chime in with a “Haven’t you people ever heard of

Closing the goddamn door?”

No, it’s much better to face these kinds of things

With a sense of poise and rationality

 

I chime in, “Haven’t you people ever heard of

Closing the goddamn door?”

No, it’s much better to face these kinds of things

With a sense of

 

Oh, well in fact

Well, I’ll look at it this way

I mean technically our marriage is saved

Well, this calls for a toast, so pour the Champagne

 

Oh, well in fact

Well, I’ll look at it this way

I mean technically our marriage is saved

Well this calls for a toast

So pour the Champagne, pour the Champagne

 

I chime in with a “Haven’t you people ever heard of

Closing the goddamn door?”

No, it’s much better to face these kinds of things

With a sense of poise and rationality

 

I chime in, “Haven’t you people ever heard of

Closing the goddamn door?”

No, it’s much better to face these kinds of things

With a sense of poise and rationality

Again

 

I chime in, “Haven’t you people ever heard of

Closing the goddamn door?”

No, it’s much better to face these kinds of things

With a sense of poise and rationality

 

I chime in, “Haven’t you people ever heard of

Closing the goddamn door?”

No, it’s much better to face these kinds of things

With a sense of poise and rationality

Again
