Mother Of The Bride lyrics 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 prettiest girl in school";
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";
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
I saw them at the hardware store
He looked boring she looked bored
It's nice to know that someone was on my side
Best wishes to the mother of the bride
