All dressed in

And she is yel

         
ling at a brid

esmaid
          
Somewhere back

 inside a room

 
          
Wearing a gown

 shaped like a

 pastry

           
Thi--is i---is

Fond gestures 

      
are exchanged 
            
And the organ 

              
starts to play

       
 a song 
     
That sounds li

ke a death mar
