lyrics

we had cakes
we had wine
we had cakes
we had wine
but I knew the truth every time I looked up
we had cakes
we had wine
but I was married under a bad sign

I vernerated the saints
I convered myself in paint
I wore
a rosary
I let the system enter me
I wanted things to be easy

the church
the church
the church is on a hill
I'll be married until it all burns down

We had cakes
we had wine
we had cakes
we had wine

It's only been a month
but I see how it is
uh, oh, so
a lifetime of this?

hey, husband
you gave me a name
you filled me with shame
I take every chance
to do you the same
to do you the same
to do you the same

We had cakes
we had wine
we had cakes
we had wine

ten years in
the sin continues to win
whatever we were
on that day at first
we're much less
than that now

We had cakes
we had wine
we had cakes
we had wine

fourty years on
my children are all gone
to the states, to the gulf
and, I've had enough
