Let It Blow  
CHe was a species on the verge of C/Bextinction She was an C/A#Air New Zealand hAmostess They were Dmmystically joined, like Emmaj7Rawicz and Landauer Dm7 F Like Pinky and Perky, like Porgy and Bess O he Cloved the pursuit and the C/Bromance But the detC/A#ails were more of a Amchore When the Dmbride’s veil lifted, hisEmmaj7 mind soon drifted Dm7 F At least that’s what happened before

O she loved the clinking of glasses When the toast was to nobles and princes In the conjugal nest she was seen at her best, With her keen eye for curtains and chintzes She had all of the furniture ordered By the time they were naming the date And her mother came speeding from distant Dunedin To help with the flowers and cake Chorus At the Chapel of Partial Remembrance The ushers went into a seizure Mr. Bacchus, they said, Should we stand on our heads Would sackcloth and ashes displease you? And they honeymooned down in Ibiza Where the sun and the nightlife were hot As she lay on the sand, he said, isn’t it grand? I bring all of my wives to this spot.
