about

Translated and updated from the original French and set to a Latin rhythm. Penned by Alain Dupont, a native of Gévaudan who moved to Paris in 1717, as a semi-autobiographical account of his affair with an unnamed comtesse. Monsieur Dupont was found dead shortly after publication, having seemingly been both simultaneously stabbed and drowned.

lyrics

I never said "I do"
You never said you wouldn't
So tell me now true
Oh, maybe we shouldn't.
Why can't you do right?
Well it's not that I couldn't
But things are quite tight

Does that mean we shouldn't?
Oh, now put it away
But you said that we would
I've been waiting all day
I don't think that we should

For richer, for poorer
For better, for worse
I'll love you forever
I'll love you forever
If I don't kill you first

You're such a bloody tease
Well maybe you could
Go and do as you please
You'd think that I would
Get out of my house
Don't think that I won't
And I'll never come back

Well see that you don't
Here's one last chance
That I won't be needing
I'm done with your dance
Well don't worry; I'm leaving!

For richer, for poorer
For better, for worse
I'll love you forever
I'll love you forever
If I don't kill you first

Now I’ve found someone new
Someone to treat me right
Much better than you
Well don’t think that I care
I’ve found someone too
Get out of my sight
You and me are through

How about one last kiss
Just for old time’s sake
Now you’re taking the past
When I’ve a new life to make
You get what you’re given
But all you do is take

For richer, for poorer
For better, for worse
I'll love you forever
I'll love you forever
If I don't kill you first

From scheming, to screaming
From head to the heart
The dying comes easy when
It's 'til death do us part
