Beat The Bride - Madness

作曲：Cathal Smyth/Lee Thompson

Don't treat the bride kneeling at your feet feeling black and blue

Like an overworked upper cut side order of meat

Monkey see what monkey do looking up to you

Copy every move they worship you

Look at yourself self respect

Dirt behind the ears

Gone is all your sense of pride

Has run off with your tears

Don't beat the bride ride the wave

Face the tide and when the penny got tight

Take take off

Ride the wave face the tide

And when the penny got tight

You're always hurting the one you love

And when they're dead and gone

The hurting gets even worse

So when tension rears its ugly head

Look the other way and stay just one step ahead

Don't beat the bride

Pressure came down

Ride the wave

Face the tide

Pressure came down

And when the penny got tight

Take take off

Ride the wave face the tide

And when the penny got tight

The way it's always been

Pressure came down on the breadwinner

Pressure came down on the collector

Pressure came down on the bush doctor

Pressure came down on the governor

Pressure came down on old beat Pete

Pressure came down on the man on the street

Pressure came down for us to meet

But we turned and ran away

Don't beat the bride ride the wave

Face the tide and when the penny got tight

Take take off

Ride the wave face the tide

And when the penny got tight

Don't beat the bride ride the wave

Face the tide and when the penny got tight

Take take off

Ride the wave face the tide
