Mother Of The Bride — текст песни (bragg billy)

The Reverend Mother went and got me a drink
She came back and said to me Well what do you think
I said I`ve made myself a fool
For the naughtiest girl in school
Chorus:
How can I deal with this hurt I feel inside?
I tell it to the mother of the bride
I put on my suit and smile for the big day
But I couldn`t watch as her dad gave her away
And as they solemnly said You`ll do
Her mother said That should have been you
Chorus
At the mercy of the moon
The boy who spoke too soon
She married him and destroyed all my hopes
Of a two-up, two-down, two point five
and a dish on the roof for the soaps
But I saw them at the hardware store
He looked boring and she looked bored
Chorus
It`s nice to know that someone was on my side
Best wishes to the mother of the bride.
