You were unaware that diamonds came with debt
Ironic, sure, but that's the way it is
Got my vows off the internet
You say crying weakens my immune system
But don't forget that if you pray for me
I'll pray for you and cash flow too, why not?
I said, if you pray for me I'll pray for you
And cash flow too, why not?
It was a black wedding,
You could hear the organs not
The violins or the words the pope was saying
It was a black wedding,
You could hear the organs but
No drunken story or real hallelujahs
Dumb people swore they saw the devil
While most prayed they wouldn't last a winter
It was a black wedding,
Throw those blessings all around
So, you're finally viewing this at 5 foot 6
It's not all roses like your mama said
We're not spoon fed anymore
So you gonna tell all our kids I was an accident?
Ironic, true, but that's the way you act when you're upset
So let's take this outside
We see our mirrors from outside
And he said we are only pride
We stay hidden all our lives
It was a black wedding,
You could hear the organs not
The violins or the words the pope was saying
It was a black wedding,
You could hear the organs but
No drunken story or real hallelujahs
Dumb people swore they saw the devil
While most prayed they wouldn't last a winter
It was a black wedding,
Throw those blessings all around
What else is there to know when our Bible's here?
What else is there to know when your Bible's here?
There are no lies to find when the page is bare
What else is there to know when your tax is shared?
Outside
We're seeing mirrors from outside
And he said we are only pride
We stay hidden all our lives
It was a black wedding
You could heard the organs play
Words the pope was saying
It was a black wedding,
You could hear the organs but
No drunken story or real hallelujahs
The gravedigger said it's his cathedral
We drank holy water like the wedding supper
It was a black wedding,
Throw those blessings all around
(What else is there to know when your bible's here?)
It was a black wedding,
Throw those blessings all around
(What else is there to know when your tax is shared?)
It was a black wedding,
Throw those blessings all around
