LRC Lyrics download
[00:06.339]I've been married and married
[00:08.731]And often I've sighed
[00:12.182]"I'm never a bridesmaid
[00:15.115]I'm always the bride"
[00:19.365]I never divorced them
[00:22.811]I hadn't the heart
[00:25.997]Yet remember these sweet words
[00:30.251]"Till death do us part"
[00:44.593]I married many men a ton of them
[00:49.112]Because I was untrue to none of them
[00:53.094]Because I bumped off every one of them
[00:57.623]To keep my love alive
[01:02.145]Sir Paul was frail he looked a wreck to me
[01:06.395]At night he was a horse's neck to me
[01:10.912]So I performed an appendectomy
[01:15.420]To keep my love alive
[01:19.937]Sir Thomas had insomnia
[01:24.199]He couldn't sleep at night
[01:28.707]I bought a little arsenic
[01:32.952]He's sleeping now all right
[01:37.735]Sir Philip played the harp
[01:39.862]I cussed the thing
[01:42.517]I crowned him with his harp
[01:44.382]To bust the thing
[01:46.506]And now he plays
[01:48.087]Where harps are just the thing
[01:50.750]To keep my love alive
[01:55.532]To keep my love alive
[02:08.536]I thought Sir George had possibilities
[02:12.794]But his flirtations made me ill at ease
[02:17.308]And when I'm ill at ease I kill at ease
[02:21.820]To keep my love alive
[02:25.546]Sir Charles came from a sanatorium
[02:30.062]And yelled for drinks in my emporium
[02:34.573]I mixed one drink he's in memoriam
[02:38.828]To keep my love alive
[02:43.353]Sir Francis was a singing bird
[02:49.799]A nightingale that's why
[02:51.925]I tossed him off my balcony
[02:56.178]To see if he could fly
[03:00.698]Sir Atherton indulged in fratricide
[03:04.941]He killed his dad and
[03:06.541]That was patricide
[03:09.450]One night I stabbed him
[03:11.309]By my mattress side
[03:13.708]To keep my love alive
[03:17.957]To keep my love alive
[03:22.477]To keep my love alive
text lyrics
I've been married and married
And often I've sighed
"I'm never a bridesmaid
I'm always the bride"
I never divorced them
I hadn't the heart
Yet remember these sweet words
"Till death do us part"
I married many men a ton of them
Because I was untrue to none of them
Because I bumped off every one of them
To keep my love alive
Sir Paul was frail he looked a wreck to me
At night he was a horse's neck to me
So I performed an appendectomy
To keep my love alive
Sir Thomas had insomnia
He couldn't sleep at night
I bought a little arsenic
He's sleeping now all right
Sir Philip played the harp
I cussed the thing
I crowned him with his harp
To bust the thing
And now he plays
Where harps are just the thing
To keep my love alive
To keep my love alive
I thought Sir George had possibilities
But his flirtations made me ill at ease
And when I'm ill at ease I kill at ease
To keep my love alive
Sir Charles came from a sanatorium
And yelled for drinks in my emporium
I mixed one drink he's in memoriam
To keep my love alive
Sir Francis was a singing bird
A nightingale that's why
I tossed him off my balcony
To see if he could fly
Sir Atherton indulged in fratricide
He killed his dad and
That was patricide
One night I stabbed him
By my mattress side
To keep my love alive
To keep my love alive
To keep my love alive
