Why don't you Atry to do withC#out him
Why don't you Dtry to live aAlone
Do you really need his hands for your C#passion
Do you Dreally need his heart for your Athrone
Do you Eneed his labour for your D7baby
Do you Eneed his beast for the D7bone
Do you Eneed to hold a leash to be a D7lady
I Aknow you're gonna Dmake itA , Dmake it Aon your Gown.H, E
Why don't your try to forget him
Just open up your dainty little hand.
You know this life is filled with many sweet companions,
many satisfying one-night stands.
Do you want to be the ditch around a tower
Do you want to be the moonlight in his cave
Do you want to give your blessing to his power
as he goes whistling past his daddy, past his daddy's grave.
I'd like to take you take you to the ceremony,
well, that is if I remember the way.
You see Jack and Jill they're going to join their misery,
I'm afraid it's time for everyone to pray.
You can see they've finally taken cover,
they're willing, yeah they're willing to obey.
Their vows are difficult, they're for each other,
so let nobody put a loophole, a loophole in their way.
