Lyrics

[00:26.31] It's a beautiful day
[00:27.93] It's a rather nice day
[00:29.28] A day for a glorious wedding
[00:32.15] A rehearsal,my dear,To be perfectly clear
[00:34.76] A rehearsal for a glorious wedding
[00:37.45] Assuming nothing happens that we don't really know
[00:40.08] That nothing unexpected interferes with the show
[00:42.73] And that's why everything
[00:44.15] Every last little thing.
[00:45.51] Every single,tiny,microscopic little thing must go
[00:50.76] According to plan
[00:51.98] Our son will be married
[00:53.37] According to plan
[00:54.77] Our family carried
[00:56.12] We'll go right into the heights of society
[01:00.17] To the costume balls
[01:01.37] In the hallowed halls
[01:02.67] Rubbing elbows with the finest
[01:05.12] Having crumpets with her highness
[01:07.77] We'll be there.We'll be seen,having tea with the queen
[01:10.52] We'll forget everything..That we've ever,ever been
[01:33.55] It's a terrible day
[01:35.20] Now,don't be that way
[01:36.59] It's a terrible day for a wedding
[01:39.44] It's sad.sad state of affairs we're in
[01:42.45] That has led to this ominous wedding
[01:45.60] How could our family have come to this?
[01:48.50] To marry off our daughter to the nouveau riche
[01:51.20] They're so commom
[01:52.13] So coarse
[01:53.10] Oh.It could't be worse!
[01:54.41] It could't be worse?I'm afraid I disagree
[01:56.98] It could be land-rich bankrupt aristocracy
[01:59.97] Without a penny to their name..Just like you..and me
[02:05.37] Oh.dear
[02:07.16] And that's why everything.Every last little thing
[02:10.17] Every single tiny microscopic little thing must go
[02:17.55] According to plan
[02:19.01] Our daughter will wed
[02:20.30] According to plan
[02:22.00] Our family lead
[02:23.50] From the depths of deepest poverty
[02:29.17] To the noble realm
[02:30.87] Of our ancestry
[02:32.67] And who'd have guessed in a million years that our daughter
[02:34.30] That our daughter with the face of an otter in disgrace
[02:38.92] Would provide our tichet to our rightful place?
[02:51.05]
[02:55.38] Mrs.Everglot(seaking)Do you suppose your father and I like each other?
[02:59.73] Emily(speaking)Surely you must... a little
[03:02.01] Mr.and Mrs Everglot(speaking)Of course not!
[03:02.93] Mrs.Everglot(speaking)Get those corsets laced properly
[03:05.41] I can hear you speak without gasping
[03:10.62] Marriage is a partnership.A little tit-for-tat
[03:14.78] You'd think a lifetime watching us
[03:17.67] (singing)Might have taught her that
[03:20.02] Might have taught her that
[03:21.46] Everything must be perfect
[03:23.26] Everything must be perfect.Everything must be perfect
[03:26.17] Everything must be perfect,perfect.
[03:27.04] That's why everything,every last little thing
[03:29.58] Every single tiny microscopic little thing must go
[03:33.93] According to plan!
