Mumbling Marriage Song

Mumbling, mumbling, intoxication

Ripping your lovely white dress on the front door step

You wonder how long you can keep this up.

Mumbling, mumbling into obliteration.

Closer to the each other, screaming mad.

Seventy watchful eyes on you,

Hopeful, hopeful, incantations.

 

Lustful brown teared eyes

Fixed on green snake eyes,

Quivering lips touching secretly in the quiet coat room

Famously ending in abrupt awkwardness.

 

You raised your glass in high spirits

Pushing, pulling into temptation

Still mumbling, intoxication

Wishing for more than incantations,

Mumbling, mumbling into obliteration
