LEVEL 42 - Her Big Day lyrics

rate me

Too bad about the weather<br>But something even badder's gonna spoil her big day<br>He stands by the mirror<br>Feelin' he's gone fifteen rounds with cassius clay<br><br>He hears a cockney classic<br>Get me to the church on time - those stupid bow bells<br>She's dressed just like an angel<br>But very soon her heaven's gonna turn into hell<br><br>She knew all along it was wrong and she'd<br>Better, better, better, better give it up<br>With a love so strong, had to carry on<br>Better, better, better, better live it up<br><br>Church yard, he's in the bushes<br>Nervous looking people say he must be delayed<br>They drive around in circles<br>She can see her big day slowly slippin' away<br><br>Down by the river, sanctuary (papa's snipeing, mama's wiping)<br>(tears away ... tears away)<br>Deep inside, her father's happy (people leaving, disbelievin')<br>Perfect irony<br><br>Better, better, better, better give it up<br><br>She knew all along it was wrong and she'd<br>Better, better, better, better give it up<br>With a love so strong, had to carry on<br>Better, better, better, better live it up<br><br>You could knock her down with a feather<br>You could knock her way on, way on<br>You could knock her down with a feather<br>You could knock her way on, way on down<br><br>Who cares about the weather<br>'cause something so much better happened after that day<br>Guess what? they're together<br>The best man put the bride up in the family way
