Cutting up pictures of wedding dresses and cl ose-ups of Marlon Br ando.

Emily sang the loudest. She was wa y out of tune
And her hands were trembling, but the hymns took her ba ck into her ch ildhood.

Emily kissed the bridegroom then she bl ushed to her toes and said
"Everyone knows I'm a silly!" then she pl ayed cats with her fi ngers.

Forty years. Her eyes filled with tears. Everyon e tried to look a way.
Emily heard the music. She tried to da nce but fell on her face
In the middle of the floor and all the ch ildren yelled for more.
Aaaah ...
Emily lay like silence... where th ey placed her with the beer
And the ash trays and peanuts but they knew she wouldn't move.
Aaaah ...

"What a shame she's dead. Oh! but wa sn't it fun? We must try to do it again."
