Sangtekst: Posies. Suddenly Mary.

1, 2, 3, 4

Suddenly Mary fell in the water
Were not I weary I would have caught her
I watched for a moment and scrambled in after
Words of disownment were drowned out with laughter

I awoke from a peaceful sleep
And found my clothes under the table
Aesop used to make me weep
But now I'm part of Mary's fable

Suddenly Mary fell in the water
I found myself married to somebody's daughter
"Loving," she told me, "Is a question of bravery"
But when she started to hold me, it was closer to slavery

I got up for a bite to eat
And found my clothes inside the icebox
I used to stand on my own to feet
But now I sit when my new wife talks

Suddenly Mary fell in the water
She floated away with the ring that I bought her
She had convinced me that I was a failure
I burned all my clothing and found a new tailor

Suddenly Mary
Suddenly Mary
Suddenly Mary
Suddenly Mary

Suddenly Mary's fine
Suddenly Mary's fine
Suddenly Mary's fine
Suddenly Mary's fine

Suddenly Mary's fine
Suddenly Mary's fine
Suddenly Mary's fine
Suddenly Mary's fine

Suddenly Mary's fine, fine
Suddenly Mary's fine, fine
Suddenly Mary's fine, fine
Suddenly Mary's fine, fine
Suddenly Mary's fine
