Unfortunately,
there is a side
to man's nature...
that has always Been...
a woman's Burden.
[Clears Throat]
I must speak frankly.
Be Brave.
Ring those bells
Wedding bells
Ring so all the world may hear
Ring those chimes many times
Ring out sweet and clear
Ring those bells
Wedding bells
Ring so all the world may hear
Ring those chimes many times
Ring out sweet and clear
Joy to the bride
On this very merry wedding day
Joy to the groom
Happy man feels so happy as May
Long may they love
With united heartzs forever gay
Long may they live
Free of care in the middle of May
Warm thoughts of many springs
Love with a wedding ring
Who's all of everything
Oh, joyful day
Oh, joyful day
