The Lyrics
I am tired of women braying about all the men they've caught,
How they've stood before three preachers, while I've stood before naught.
As a spinster, I've been burning like a slice of blackened toast,
For I long to be a sexpert, but I can't even get close...
Weddings are so cruel...
Weddings are so cruel --
When they're not all about YOU!
Weddings are spiteful --
Oh why does Cupid spite me?
Weddings are so cruel --
When they're all bouquet and rice-y
Girlfriends invite me... to torture me!
Weddings are so cruel --
When I attend, people tease me:
Why am I single?
Could it be that I am gay?
And then I notice,
Suddenly I feel uneasy --
Because of all the ribbing and abuse
People always dump on you
Wedding day!
How they've stood before three preachers, while I've stood before naught.
As a spinster, I've been burning like a slice of blackened toast,
For I long to be a sexpert, but I can't even get close...
Weddings are so cruel...
Weddings are so cruel --
When they're not all about YOU!
Weddings are spiteful --
Oh why does Cupid spite me?
Weddings are so cruel --
When they're all bouquet and rice-y
Girlfriends invite me... to torture me!
Weddings are so cruel --
When I attend, people tease me:
Why am I single?
Could it be that I am gay?
And then I notice,
Suddenly I feel uneasy --
Because of all the ribbing and abuse
People always dump on you
Wedding day!
