Intro Lyrics - Singles - Gilbert And Sullivan

CHORUS: 

Won't it be a pretty wedding? 

Will not Lisa look delightful? 

Smiles and tears in plenty shedding-- 

Which in brides of course is rightful 

One could say, if one were spiteful, 

Contradiction little dreading, 

Her bouquet is simply frightful-- 

Still, 'twill be a pretty wedding! 

Oh, it is a pretty wedding! 

Such a pretty, pretty wedding! 

ELSA: 

If her dress is badly fitting, 

Their's the fault who made her trousseau. 

BERTHA: 

If her gloves are always splitting, 

Cheap kid gloves, we know, will do so. 

OLGA: 

If upon her train she stumbled, 

On one's train one's always treading. 

GRET: 

If her hair is rather tumbled, 

Still, 'twill be a pretty wedding! 

CHORUS: 

Such a pretty, pretty wedding! 

CHORUS: 

Here they come, the couple plighted-- 

On life's journey gaily start them. 

Soon to be for aye united, 

Till divorce or death shall part them.
