Suddenly Mary

suddenly mary

Suddenly mary fell in the water

Were not i weary i would have caught her

I watched for a moment and scrambled in

After

Words of disownment were drowned out with

Laughter

I awoke from a peaceful sleep and found

My clothes under the table

Aesop used to make me weep but now i'm

Part of mary's fable

Suddenly mary fell in the water

I found myself married to somebody's

Daughter

"loving," she told me

"is a question of bravery"

But when she started to hold me

It was closer to slavery

I got up for a bite to eat and found my

Clothes inside the icebox

I used to stand on my own two feet but

Now i sit when my new wife talks

Suddenly mary fell in the water

She floated away with the ring that i

Bought her

She had convinced me that i was a failure

I burned all my clothing and found a new

Tailor

Suddenly mary (repeat)

Suddenly mary's fine (repeat)
