Lyrics

Marrying the Hammer

Such a stately manor What a waste The trickle-down effect won't touch this place We'll miss the fun, we'll miss the glamour Careful with those apostrophes, please It can't be "our's" (it took me hours?) when it is "we are" The grammar just doesn't follow another Petty catastrophe to swallow A girl is good You say with a stammer Divorcing the chords To marry the hammer
