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

And yes, but what a shame

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

I chimed in with a, "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

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 chimed in with a "Haven't you 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 chimed 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

Again!

I chimed in with a, "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 chimed 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

Again!
