2018 london cast of company - getting married today lyrics

Loading...

[vicar]
bless this day
pinnacle of joy
boy unites with boy
the heart leaps up to behold
this golden day

[paul]
today is for jamie
jamie, i give you the rest of my days
to cherish and to keep you, to honor you forever
today is for jamie
my lover, my partner, my life

[jamie]
pardon me, is everybody there? because if everybody’s there, i want to thank you all for coming to the wedding, i’d appreciate your going even more, i mean you must have lots of better things to do, and not a word of this to paul, remember paul, you know, the man i’m gonna marry, but i’m not, because i wouldn’t ruin anyone as wonderful as he is-

but i thank you all
for the gifts and the flowers
thank you all
now it’s back to the showers
don’t tell paul
but i’m not getting married today

[vicar]
bless this day
opposite of joy
boy gets yoked to boy
the heart sinks down and feels dead
this dreadful day

[jamie]
listen, everybody, look, i don’t know what you’re waiting for, a wedding, what’s a wedding, it’s a prehistoric ritual where everybody promises fidelity forever, which is maybe the most horrifying word i ever heard of, which is followed by a honeymoon, where suddenly he’ll realize he’s saddled with a nut, and wanna k!ll me, like he should-

so listen, thanks a bunch
but i’m not getting married-
go have brunch
’cause i’m not getting married-
you’ve been grand
but i’m not getting married-
don’t just stand there
i’m not getting married-
and don’t tell paul
but i’m not getting married today

go, can’t you go?
why is no-
body listening?
goodbye
go and cry
at some other person’s wake
if you’re quick
for a kick
you could pick
up a christening
but please
on my knees
there’s a human life at stake!

listen everybody, i’m afraid you didn’t hear, or do you want to see a crazy person fall apart in front of you, it isn’t only paul who may be ruining his life, you know we’ll both of us be losing our ident-ties, i telephoned my shrink and he said maybe i should come and see him monday, but by monday i’ll be floating in the hudson with the other garbage-

i’m not well
so i’m not getting married-
you’ve been swell
but i’m not getting married-
clear the hall
’cause i’m not getting married-
thank you all
but i’m not getting married-
and don’t tell paul
but i’m not getting married today

[vicar]
bless this fool
totally insane
slipping down the drain
and bless this day in our hearts
as it starts
to rain

[paul]
today is for jamie

[jamie]
go, can’t you go?

[paul]
jamie, i give you the rest of my days

[jamie]
look, you know
i adore you all
but why
watch me die
when i’m only being nice?

[paul]
to cherish and to keep you, to honor you forever

[jamie]
look, perhaps
i’ll collapse
in the apse
right before you all
so take
back the cake
burn the shoes
and boil the rice

[paul]
today is for jamie, my lover, my partner, my life

[jamie]
look, i didn’t wanna have to
tell you, but i may be coming
down with hepat-tis, and i
think i’m gonna faint, so if
you wanna see me faint, i’ll
do it happily, but wouldn’t
it be funnier to go and watch
a funeral, so thank you for the
twenty-seven dinner plates
and thirty-seven salad bowls
and forty-seven picture frames
fifty-seven candleholders-

[paul]
one more thing-

[jamie]
i am not getting married!

[choir]
amen!

[paul]
softly said-

[jamie]
but i’m not getting married!

[choir]
amen!

[paul]
with this ring-

[jamie]
still i’m not getting married!

[choir]
amen!

[paul]
i thee wed

[jamie]
see, i’m not getting married!

[choir]
amen!

[paul] [jamie]
let us pray let us pray
that we are getting married that i’m not getting married
today! today!

[choir]
amen!
