Beat the Bride Songtext
von The Madness

Don′t treat the bride
Kneeling at your feet
Feeling black and blue
Like an overworked uppercut side order
Only monkey see what monkey do
Looking up to you
Copy every move, they'll worship you
Look at yourself, self respect
Dirt behind the ears
Gone is all that sense of pride
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
The pressure came down
The pressure came down


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, 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
The pressure came down

Pressure came down on the breadwinner
Pressure came down on the collector
Pressure came down on the bush tucker
Pressure came down on the governor
Pressure came down on all we feet
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
The pressure came down
The pressure came down
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
The pressure came down
