As I'm pacing the pews in a church corridor

And I can't help but to hear

"What a beautiful wedding"

"What a beautiful wedding," says a bridesmaid to a waiter

"And yes, but what a shame

What a shame the poor groom's bride is a whore"

Oh, well, in fact

Well, I'll look at it this way

I chime in, "Haven't you people ever heard of

Closing a 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 a goddamn door?"

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

With a sense of poise and rationality
