I've no wish to hurry you luv
But have you seen the time
It's quarter to ten and we're supposed to be there
at nine
I don't think the registrar
Will be very pleased
When we show up an hour late
Like two frozen peas
Both now facing for the first time
Presently and past
Something that begins with M
And ends in alas
More than not complete disaster
Even form the start
What could it be...
It's Matrimony
I know how you've dreamt about
Being walked down the aisle
But think of the money we'll save
And you'll see it's worthwhile
It won't please our mums and dads
But they don't even know,
Besides if they did what's the betting
They wouldn't even go
You and me are all that matters
Disregard the rest
Trust your soon to be old man
He knows what is best
Very shortly now there's going to be
An answer from you
Then one from me
That's matrimony
I'm truly grateful for the little things in life
That have made me so glad
Every other hour that I spend with you
Is not in the least bit sad
Quite the opposite in fact
And if you don't believe me
Here's the proof
Ask me if I and I'll say ";Aye, I do";
You and me are all that matters
Disregard the rest
Trust your soon to be old man
He knows what is best
Very shortly now there's going to be
An answer from you
Then one from me
That's matrimony
Marriage-the joining together of the two people
For better or for worse Till death them do part
Ole!

Nous vivions comme des frères, au village de notre enfance
Sur la place, on avait tout pour être heureux
Quand les femmes au marché ont porté des nouvelles de la guerre
Elles avaient, ce jour-là, des larmes plein les yeux
Que font les miens loin du pays? Pour quel enfer, quel Dieu?
Et combien faudra-t-il encore de vies à croiser le fer et le feu?
Si on pouvait recommencer, tout arrêter
Écrire l'Histoire à notre idée, tout effacer
Et que reviennent au moins tous ceux qui sont trop loin
Qui sont partis pour rien, poser les armes et vivre enfin
Redevenir humains
Quand les plaies sembleront fermées, il restera pourtant
Au long des routes et sous les champs de blé
Tant de bombes à retardement
Pour les dégâts collatéraux, s'adresser au dernier bureau
Au comptoir des bonheurs perdus, le guichet ne désemplit plus
Les chemins vers la liberté, terrain miné
Sont jalonnés d'emprisonnés, de voix étouffées
Et de maisons désertes aux rues abandonnées
Dans des villages entiers, des otages aux vies menacées
Pour leur couleur, leurs idées
Terre humaine, tous les hommes ont un rêve
À partager autour de toi
Ma Terre humaine, que tous tes peuples se lèvent
Et reviennent à la raison pour vivre ensemble dans la paix, avec toi
Si on voulait tout commencer aujourd'hui, bâtir le monde à notre idée
Trouver la paix qu'ils ont cherchée en vain
Qu'ils ont cherchée si loin pour nous offrir, un jour, enfin
Des lendemains sur la Terre, sur ma Terre humaine
Nous vivions comme des frères au village de notre enfance
Sur la place, on avait tout pour être heureux

Things didn't work out like they should,
Farther from how you thought they would
Do you still want my hand?
Do you think I'm still your man?
I'll change everything I can.
Matrimony...
Holy plans and holy gifts
Holy shit what did we get
You said you've got plans of your own
You're gonna work and I'll stay home.
Do you still want my hand?
Do you still think I'm your man?
I'll change everything I can.
Matrimony...
My dog is loud and my dog is wild
We're too young to have a child
Can you keep the dog next week?
I'll be gone the next three.
Do you still want my hand?
Do you still think I'm your man?
I'll change everything I can.
Matrimony...
I ain't through I ain't walking out
Leaving ain't what I'm about,
You may scream and I may shout.

My friends are all trusting a little too much.
Giving themselves away to each other.
There's a new one every month,
featuring a future single mother,
with those rings wrapped around your finger.
Does it prove you love her?
Now that he said "I do",
can you finally please your mother?
Tell me I'm childish all you want,
I just want to love myself,
Just want to love myself,
Want to love myself,
Just want to love myself,
Want to love myself,
Just want to love myself,

Well, I'm savin' this dress for my wedding day
Momma wouldn't have it any other way
She says, when she married, her waist was twenty three
I guess, I'll never wear it anyway
I don't believe I care to marry
Though I cannot explain exactly why
It somehow seems to me, matrimony is misery
Simply a faster way to die
I'm savin' all my money for my wedding day
You know, my momma wouldn't have it any other way
She says, when she married, she didn't' have a dime
I guess, I'll spend that money some other way
Because I don't believe I care to marry
Although I cannot say exactly why
It somehow seems to me that matrimony is misery
Simply a faster way to die
Well, I'm savin' my best thing for my wedding day
Because my poppa wouldn't have it any other way
He says, if I lose it early, I'll have thrown my life away
But I swear, I'll use my cherry my own way
I don't believe I care to marry
Though I cannot explain exactly why
It somehow seems to me, matrimony is misery

met a man
a motoway man
he really makes me wonder
slow faced worn and weary
one race left and then
fall over and I see him
every single past me sunlight
on the bonnet so bright
everyone is cracking
slow face on the shoulder
still straight but everything is lacking
floating in and fading out
it seems anyway he waves at me
through the sunbeams
met a man
a motorway man
met a man
he really drags me under
sixteen miles an hour
sixteen miles an hour
baby do you laugh at me
I think you do and you know
that all of us are right behind you
and now I want to go home
but it's too late
how much further to go
before the home
straight wave me by and gently sigh
a smile just starts to break

I have walked here maybe on this road
A bed of friends
Via thoughts of guild so unextinguished
I was on my mothers door
Am I now on your reel?
All your friends found someone on the pretence
That they weren't hanging around for joy
To feel less worthless
I don't see them any more no
I won't chain myself

Commuting - communicating - touching base
Computing - evaluating - a paper chase
A mover - a man in motion - solid state
Perfection - a man of action - never late
Relating - computer dating - a perfect match
No silly romanticizing - a train to catch
Elation - escalation - moving on
Vibration - motivation - never done
Chorus:
I am a metro man of the standard kind
I live a perfect life for the good of all
I am a metro man of the standard kind
I live a perfect life for the good of all
Devotion and no emotion - he's always right
Producing for a new world - the metro type
Persistent and consistent - he's always fit
He's ready ever steady he'll never quit
