  Oh,
Well imagine,
As I'm pacing the pews in a church corridor,
And I can't help but to hear,
No, I can't help but to hear an exchanging of words:
"What a beautiful wedding! What a beautiful wedding!" says a bridesmaid to a waiter,
"And, yes, but what a shame, what a shame the poor groom's bride is a whore."

I chime in with a
"Haven't you people ever heard of closing the goddamn door?!"
No, it's much better to face these kinds of things
With a sense of poise and rationality.
I chime in,
"Haven't you people ever heard of closing the goddamn door?!"
No, it's much better to face these kinds of things

I'm a leading man
And the lies I weave are oh so intricate,
Oh so intricate

  Well in fact,
Well I'll look at it this way,

I'd chime in,
"Haven't you people ever heard of closing the goddamn door?!"
No, it's much better to face these kinds of things
With a sense of poise and rationality again.

  All the boys who the dance floor didn't love
And all the girls whose lips couldn't move fast enough
Sing, until your lungs give out

This ain't a scene, it's a goddamned arms race
This ain't a scene, it's a goddamned arms race
(Now you)

  I'd chime in,
"Haven't you people ever heard of closing the goddamn door?!"  

(Wear out the groove)

  No, it's much better to face these kinds of things
With a sense of poise and rationality.  

(Sing out loud)

  I chime in,
"Haven't you people ever heard of closing the goddamn door?!"
No, it's much better to face these kinds of things
With a sense of...  

  I'm a leading man
And the lies I weave are oh so intricate,

Again...

I'm a leading man
And the lies I weave are oh so intricate,
Oh so intricate  

With a sense of...
