Lyrics
0:20For the benefit of Tom and Mary
0:22Before our guests arrive
0:25If they haven't found out already it's gonna blow their minds
0:30Will we find the strength to find the will to testify
0:34That for the benefit of tom and Mary
0:36There's something we can't hide any more
0:48Everybody here knows the story
0:50Some have fabricated extra parts
0:53See the sisters shouting whispers
0:54Feeding hot air to the sparks
0:57Put a damper on the party
1:00It will lighten up this room
1:02For the benefit of Tom and Mary
1:04They've got to see the truth to day
1:17Mrs Power's son
1:18Says here they come
1:22And all the chatter and the smiles they come undone
1:26And you could hear a pin drop on the carpet floor
1:30Everyone's pretending no to hear them knocking at the door
1:53For the benefit of Tom and Mary
1:55Before our guests arrive
1:57If they haven't found out already
1:59It's gonna blow their minds
2:02If they haven't found out already
2:04And if the seams all seem to show
2:06That for the benefit of Tom and Mary
2:09For the benefit of Tom and Mary
2:11For the benefit of Tom and Mary
2:13We got to let the truth be known
For the benefit of Tom and Mary Before our guests arrive If they haven't found out already it's gonna blow their minds Will we find the strength to find the will to testify That for the benefit of tom and Mary There's something we can't hide any more Everybody here knows the story Some have fabricated extra parts See the sisters shouting whispers Feeding hot air to the sparks Put a damper on the party It will lighten up this room For the benefit of Tom and Mary They've got to see the truth to day Mrs Power's son Says here they come And all the chatter and the smiles they come undone And you could hear a pin drop on the carpet floor Everyone's pretending no to hear them knocking at the door For the benefit of Tom and Mary Before our guests arrive If they haven't found out already It's gonna blow their minds If they haven't found out already And if the seams all seem to show That for the benefit of Tom and Mary For the benefit of Tom and Mary For the benefit of Tom and Mary We got to let the truth be known
