The next time: I will lift my head, clear my throat and say with pride I boinked the bride... And I'll consider the consequences on this day or any day Of keeping the truth in, it will eat you away because all I wanted to say was: I boinked the bride... Now it's done; it's all confirmed: you're all that you can handle I hope he gives good love and s**m and life without any real scandal Why didn't you ask me to sing at your wedding? I
