3. Blood Wedding - Oysterband


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azQg6_vR2XQ

"Blood Wedding" by Oysterband

Do you take this woman: I said, "Yes, I do"
I love her like crazy; I think she loves me too
We could do without the family if it's all the same to you
Happy Ever After

Your mother's a flake, your father's full of shite
Your sister says you married me in white just for spite
A party's not a party 'til it ends up in a fight
Happy Ever After

Chorus

And there's my lot and your lot and us two in between
Please God this is the last time I get married
Please God this is the last time I get married

My brother's never short of a substance to abuse
Rum, glue, Thunderbird, whizz and Special Brew
Any minute now and he'll show us his tattoos
Happy Ever After

Nephews are obnoxious, nieces are too tall
A dozen drunken uncles pissing up the wall
Granddad is grinning but there's no-one home at all
Happy Ever After

Chorus

For richer, for poorer, for better or worse
Mow we are married, a blessing or a curse
Kiss me and don't forget - what you see is what you get

And the best man's the worst man, the best man is a beast
Underneath the table with the sister of the priest
The way he's going at it, she's probably deceased
Happy Ever After

Gran is on the brandy getting bleary-eyed
The guys I went to school with want to see me outside
Someone's pulled a bridesmaid; has anyone seen the bride?
Happy Ever After

I swear this is the last time I get married
I'm sure this is the last time I get married
Please God this is the last time I get married

8. depends which end I am on of the stick
but I still think the best "I just got dumped" album of all time is "69 love songs" by the Magnetic Fields.

10. not divorced
...but if I ever do, it will be Roy Clark's "Thank God and Greyhound"

I've made a small fortune, and you've squandered it all.
You've shamed me till I feel about one inch tall.
But I thought I loved you, and I hoped you would change,
so I gritted my teeth and didn't complain.

Now you've come to me with a simple goodbye.
You tell me you're leaving, but you won't tell me why.
We're here at the station and you're getting on.
And all I can think of is.........

Thank God and Greyhound you're gone!

Thank God and Greyhound you're gone!
I didn't know how much longer I could go on,
watching you take the respect out of me,
watching you make a total wreck out of me.
That big diesel motor is a playing my song.

Thank God and Greyhound you're gone!

Thank God and Greyhound you're gone!
That load on my mind got lighter when you got on.
That shiney old bus is a beautiful sight,
with the black smoke rolling up around the tail lights.
It may sound kinda cruel, but I've been silent too long:

Thank God and Greyhound you're gone!

Thank God and Greyhound you're gone!

:rofl:

:hide:
