You'd better get some sleep for a change
  Before tomorrow brings you down
  By three o'clock they'll both be sitting on that plane
  Hopelessly honeymoon bound
  And I hope no one asks you to kiss this bride
  Or tie tin cans to the car
  And if friends and relations mingle outside
  You can linger at the bar
  
  So bring on the rainclouds and block out the moon
  Let the action begin
  
  You'll feel like some soap opera star
  Predictably hitting the booze
  With your standard issue broken heart
  You step into your Saturday shoes
  And you might feel better if you slapped her face
  Or slipped some pills in his wine
  But instead some voice in your head keeps saying
  You'll look back and laugh sometime
  
  So bring on the rainclouds and block out the moon
  Let the action begin
  
  Cos it's as sure as sunrise and as sure as time
  The bride will be changing and you will be crying
  And it will be raining as soon as the tide comes in
  
  So put on your lipstick and check that you hat's straight too
  Cos if they can go through with it you can do it too
  
  So bring on the rainclouds and block out the moon
  Let the action begin
  
  Cos it's as sure as sunrise and as sure as time
  The bride will be changing and you will be crying
  And it will be raining as soon as the tide comes in
  And it will be raining as soon as the tide comes in
