Patiently listnin´ You´re keepin´ your distance And I´m still hoping that we can be friends But if that´s too much then I´ll ask no more than This which we´ve buried
Yes I had one once but I guess she´s married And, yes, I have a photograph Somewhere I guess I´ll tell you if you really wanna know that bad
Isn´t she beautiful? Isn´t she beautiful? I know, I know Isn´t she
[Chorus] We´re all pretty when we die Prim and pale in black and white White oh
Go and put on your perfume Smile away the afternoon Noon
Well your brother got married to a faithless heart And straightened his trunks for angels´ voices Ah ah ah
Shotgun wedding on the porch On the fifth of May And everybody sayin´ yeah, they´ll be okay They´re so great They´re so nice together You´re the happy couple, may you die together
May you prosper ´till you die
Prim and pale in black and white White oh
May we dance until it rains May we drink to hide our shame Shame oh
