The Trumpets Blared

The trumpets blared on New Years Day
Old Shelbourne got a wedding cake
So we drove out to the twilit lake
And it looked like the Caspian sea
Oh, and that's alright by me, oh yes

I was getting drunk just as slowly as I could
Gram and pop looked older, but their suits looked very good
The waiter passed out noisemakers, I was blowing a kazoo
And the bridesmaid popped a lude
And she gave one to me, oh no

After dinner overtured wеll, John would give a speech
He hit the jackpot a week bеfore, when he was at the beach
It gave his wife and him a brand new house to share
Where the floor supports the stairs
Oh one day I'll go there

Well!

The last few days I've been thinking that I've been going nuts
Spent nice days indoors, holding in my guts
Oh!

I just want to say to you, how much I think it's crazy
You'll never be the boy, you'll be the baby
And all those times running into war
The father the son and the holy ghost
Were always fucked for sure

Sure, ooh!
