The Wedding List Lyrics


No, I'll never give the hunt up
And I won't muck it up
Somehow this is it, I knew
Well, maybe fate wants you dead too
We've come together in the very same room
And I'm coming for you
Do you think I'd ever let you
Get away with it?
He swooned in warm maroon
There's gas in your barrel and I'm flooded with doom
You've made a wake of our honeymoon
And I'm coming for you
All of the headlines said, "Passion crime
Newly weds groom shot dead
Mystery man" God help the bride
She's a widow all in red
With his red still wet, she said
I'll put him on the wedding list

I'll put him on the wedding list
I'll get him and I will not miss
And now as I'm coming for you
All I see is Rudi
I die with him again and again
And I'll feel good in my revenge
I'm gonna fill your head with lead
I'm coming for you
And when it's all over you'll roll over
The butt of my gun
One in your belly and one for Rudi
You got what you gave by the heel of my bootie
Bang-bang, out, like an old cherootie
I'm coming for you
All of the headlines said, "Passion crime
Newly weds groom shot dead
Mystery man" God help the bride
She's a widow all in red
With his red still wet
And she sure got him on the wedding list
I'll got him on the wedding list
I'll got him and I did not miss
I'll put him on the wedding list
And after she shot the guy
She committed suicide
I'm coming, Rudi
Later when they analyzed
They found a little one inside
It must have been Rudi's child
I shot, I shot, I shot him, honey
"Never mind, she got the guy"
He hit the ground, Rudi
Eye for an eye
Ashes to ashes, ashes
An eye for an eye
I hit him, hit him
Eye for an eye
Eye for an eye
Rudi
Eye for an eye
Rudi
I'm coming, coming, coming, honey
Eye for an eye
Rudi

Kate Bush (born Catherine Bush on 30 July 1958 in Bexleyheath, Kent, England, now part of Greater London) is an English singer and songwriter known for her expressive four-octave soprano voice, idiosyncratic and literary lyrics, and eclectic and meticulous musical and production style. She debuted in 1978 with the surprise hit "Wuthering Heights", which was number one in the British music charts for four weeks.

Whilst learning the violin and piano at St. Joseph's Convent Grammar, she caught the ear of Pink Floyd's David Gilmour who funded some demos, ultimately leading to a deal with EMI (Pink Floyd's ultimate record company through the progressive Harvest imprint) when she was sixteen. Over the next two years EMI allowed her to hone her talents to and to finish school without releasing any material--while maintaining an exclusive contract. Bush's first releases were in 1978 with the single Wuthering Heights (which went to number 1 in the UK, a first for a female singer) followed by the album The Kick Inside.

Even from her earliest works, featuring piano as a primary instrument, Bush wove together many diverse influences, melding classical music, rock, and a wide range of folk sources, producing a unique amalgam which has continued throughout her career. Later recordings have moved farther from a rock base, however, notably with the release of The Dreaming in 1982, where she experimented heavily with the then-new technology of sampling.

Recorded in the same sessions as Bush’s reworking of old material, Director's Cut, Songfacts reports that 50 Words for Snow comprises seven songs “set against a background of falling snow.” The album was released through the singer’s personal imprint, Fish People, on November 21, 2011.

More than one reviewer has used the term "surreal" to describe much of her music, for many of the songs have a melodramatic emotional and musical surrealism that defies easy categorization. It has been observed that even the more joyous pieces are often tinged with traces of melancholy, and even the most sorrowful have elements of a unique vitality struggling against all that would oppress it. Her unapologetic use of her voice as an instrument conveying a broad range of emotional intensity and subtlety has characterized nearly all of her work.

Kate Bush has tackled sensitive and taboo subjects long before it had become fashionable to do so; "Kashka From Baghdad" is a song about a gay male couple; "Breathing" explores the results of nuclear fallout. Her lyrics are often literate and reference a wide array of subject matter, some of which is relatively obscure, such as Wilhelm Reich in "Cloudbusting", or G.I. Gurdjieff in "Them Heavy People".

The lush arrangements, complex production and intelligent, thoughtful lyrics found in her work can sometimes mask the fact that Kate Bush is a peculiarly witty writer and that comedy is not only a big influence on her — she has cited Monty Python, Woody Allen, Fawlty Towers and The Young Ones as particular favourites — but also a significant component of her work. In addition to her British peers, Bush has reportedly cited American musicians Frank Zappa and Devo as musical influences.

As a vocalist, she has also provided backing vocals or duets with Peter Gabriel, Roy Harper, Big Country and others. She is often cited as an influence on later artists, most especially female singers such as Jane Siberry, Happy Rhodes and Tori Amos.

Kate Bush has collected two Ivor Novello awards: in 1979 'Outstanding British Lyric' for "The Man With the Child in His Eyes" and 'Outstanding Contribution To British Music As A Songwriter' in 2002. In 1987 she scooped 'Best British Female Artist' at the Brit Awards. In 2001, Kate won Q Magazine's 'Classic Songwriter' award, revealing an unlikely fan in John Lydon who announced, in his acceptance speech for the 'Inspirational Artist Award,' "I'd like to say hello to Kate Bush, thank you, your music is f****ng brilliant".

Kate's song "Running Up That Hill", from the 1985 album Hounds of Love, has been covered by Placebo on a number of dates during their 2006 tour. The Futureheads, released a version of Kate's "Hounds of Love" as a single, which did rather well.
