Standing on Ceremony Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Remember your manners
Will you please take your hat off?
Your mother is dying
Listen to her cough
[Chorus]
We were always standing on ceremony
We were always standing on ceremony
[Verse 2]
Can't you show some respect please?
Although you didn't in real life
Your mother is dying
And I god damn well hope you're satisfied
[Chorus]
We were always standing on ceremony
We were always standing on ceremony
[Bridge]
So please play another song on that juke box
Please play another pretty sad song for me
And if that phone rings, tell them that you haven't seen me
If the last phone rings, tell them that you haven't seen me for weeks
And this one here's on me
[Outro]
Standing on ceremony
Standing on ceremony
Standing on ceremony, standing on ceremony
Standing on ceremony, you were always standing on ceremony
(Standing on ceremony)
(Standing on ceremony)
(Standing on ceremony)
(Standing on ceremony)
(Standing on ceremony)
(Standing on ceremony)
