I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change movie - Always a Bridesmaid lyrics

rate me

<br>

Well, I've walked down the aisle <br>

As much as Liz Taylor<br>

But I've always stood off to the side<br>

Each bride has me dressed <br>

In a gown I detest<br>

Always a bridesmaid, never a bride.<br>

<br>

For Caitlin, I wore satin<br>

Which I looked really fat in.<br>

Then again, you should have seen her man Ken;<br>

All those calories he logged up<br>

Til his arteries clogged up<br>

He died on the couch watching ESPN.<br>

Too many weddings, too many dresses<br>

That all make my hips look so wide. <br>

Not a gown I'd reuse <br>

Ditto the matching shoes; <br>

Always a bridesmaid<br>

Never a bride.<br>

<br>

For Tabitha, I wore taffetta <br>

You should never people laugh at ya<br>

But I had a hunch her marriage was doomed.<br>

The groom tried to stroke me<br>

While we danced the Hokey Pokey<br>

They divorced before the honeymoon.<br>

<br>

Once my gown was velourish <br>

Made me look kind of whorish<br>

But my best friend Delores <br>

Was never quite same<br>

She shot her new mister<br>

Cuz he bedded her sister<br>

He's not dead, but now he walks like John Wayne.<br>

Too many weddings, too many dresses, <br>

That all make my hips look so wide<br>

My friends can't assess<br>

A man or a dress<br>

Always a bridesmaid<br>

Never a bride.<br>

<br>

When I look in my closet,<br>

There's a rainbow deposit<br>

Of gowns so grotesque that I groan<br>

All those husbands are gone,<br>

But those dresses live on,<br>

Even moths seem to leave them alone.<br>

Too many weddings, too many messes<br>

But at least I've hung on to my pride.<br>

I've lived life alone, but the terms are my own.<br>

Always a bridesmaid, (thank you Lord!)<br>

Never a bride!<br>

<br>

<br>
