They’ll never last, we heard them say
So we put them in their places
We spoke our vows and said I do
With smiles upon our faces

An elegy was written
No, this wasn’t just a rumor
Mourning the loss of his only son
My father-in-law‘s sense of humor

The guys all got together
To say farewell, dear chap
No more video games or movie frames
Just the famous Bachelor Rap

Friends and family gathered round
To wish us on our way
A bright new future lay ahead
On that beautiful July day

Yes, that was thirty years ago
As we celebrate this life
Neil, forever my husband
And I, forever his wife
