I went to a wedding

Though only the night time

I didn't know them that well

I watched on from the margins

At the dance floor crowded



The DJ adhered to the rule of occasion

Dancing Queen

Shoop Shoop Song

You're the One that I Want

They're the ones that they want



He knew his trade well I could see



And at a table nearby I heard a girl saying

To a tall balding guest

So you're Brad Friedel

I'm mildly impressed



I thought I'd chance my arm

Her reply won my heart

So you're William Pitt

Elder or Younger



And then inexplicably

For reasons unfathomable

But to me wholly admirable

The DJ played us some Tallis



He yanked off the Corrs in disgust and announced Thomas

Tallis



Lamentations of Jeremiah



Across an empty dancefloor I walked to commend him

And also enquire if he had any Dowland



The incident passed things got back to normal

At the end of the evening everyone staggered out

singing

And they were singing



Oh you can't put your foot up in Europe

You can't show your studs on the 'Nent.

They take a dim view of a slightly raised shoe

So think on if you're up against Ghent

My lad

Think on if you're up against Ghent
