Matrimony

I've no wish to hurry you luv

But have you seen the time

It's quarter to ten and we're supposed to be there

at nine

I don't think the registrar

Will be very pleased

When we show up an hour late

Like two frozen peas

Both now facing for the first time

Presently and past

Something that begins with M

And ends in alas

More than not complete disaster

Even form the start

What could it be...

It's Matrimony

I know how you've dreamt about

Being walked down the aisle

But think of the money we'll save

And you'll see it's worthwhile

It won't please our mums and dads

But they don't even know,

Besides if they did what's the betting

They wouldn't even go

You and me are all that matters

Disregard the rest

Trust your soon to be old man

He knows what is best

Very shortly now there's going to be

An answer from you

Then one from me

That's matrimony

I'm truly grateful for the little things in life

That have made me so glad

Every other hour that I spend with you

Is not in the least bit sad

Quite the opposite in fact

And if you don't believe me

Here's the proof

Ask me if I and I'll say "Aye, I do"

You and me are all that matters

Disregard the rest

Trust your soon to be old man

He knows what is best

Very shortly now there's going to be

An answer from you

Then one from me

That's matrimony

Marriage-the joining together of the two people

For better or for worse Till death them do part

Ole!
