"The Wedding List"


Never for Ever
 Written by Kate Bush 





 No, I'll never give the hunt up, 


 And I won't muck it up. 


 Somehow this was it, I knew. 


 Maybe fate wants you dead, too: 


 We've come together in the very same room, 


 And I'm coming for you! 






 Did you think I'd ever let you 


 Get away with it, huh? 


 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: 


      'Newlyweds Groom Shot Dead 


      'Mystery Man.' God help the bride! 


      She's a widow, all in red, 


      With his red still wet. She said--" 






 



           ("She sure put him on the--") 
  






 



            I'll put him on the wedding list! 


            I'll get him on the wedding list! 


            I'll get him and I will not miss. 
  






 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 


 And 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, 


 And I'm coming for you! 






     "All of the heaDLines said 'Passion Crime: 


      'Newlyweds Groom Shot Dead 


      'Mystery Man.' God help the bride! 


      She's a widow, all in red, 


      With his red still wet. She said--" 






 



           ("She sure put him on the--") 
  






 



            I'll put him on the wedding list! 


            I'll get him on the wedding list! 


            I'll get him and I will not miss. 
  






      "After she shot the guy, 


       She committed suicide. 


 I'm coming, Rudi! 


      "And later, when they analysed, 


       They found a little one inside. 


 I'm coming, coming, coming, honey! 


      "It must have been Rudi's child." 


 I shot him! 


      "Never mind, she got the guy." 


 He hit the ground, Rudi! 


      "An eye for an eye." 


 Ashes to ashes... 


      "Eye for an eye." 


 Rudi!
