Beige

Mama planned it all

said it's pretty in the fall

and the flowers would be

roses and daisiesand she prayed nobody saw

the weight that I put on

the bride shouldn't be

4 months and 3 weeksDaddy's pride and joy

is marrying some boy

and he looked afraid

the preacher turned the page

and I was wearing beigeNowhere Baptist church

wrinkles in his shirt

no one's having a ball

at the reception halland we didn't take no honeymoon

with what we've got ourselves into

a quick "I do"

and then back home againDaddy's pride and joy

was marrying some boy

now everyone in this place

knows I didn't wait

cause I was wearing beige
