Intro :         Emily brought confetti that she'd made herself by Cutting up pictures of wedding dresses and close-ups of Marlon Brando. Emily wore her best suit, and everyone stared and said "My, you look cute!" but she didn't though her smile was beautiful. Emily sang the loudest. She was way out of tune And her hands were trembling, but the hymns took her back into her childhood. Aaaah...                          Emily kissed the bridegroom then she blushed to her toes and said "Everyone knows I'm a silly!" then she played cats with her fingers. Emily drank the champagne. She had a smoke the first in Forty years. Her eyes filled with tears. Everyone tried to look away. Emily heard the music. She tried to dance but fell on her face In the middle of the floor and all the children yelled for more. Aaaah...                          Emily lay like silence...  where they placed her with the beer And the ashtrays and peanuts but they knew she wouldn't move. Aaaah...                          Emily's in the picture and everyone says "What a shame she's dead. Oh! but wasn't it fun? We must try to do it again." Emily brought confetti that she'd made herself by Cutting up pictures of wedding dresses and close-ups of Marlon Brando. Aaaah...                         Aaaah...

La chanson évoque l'histoire d'Emily, une femme pleine de vie qui se rend à un mariage avec ses propres décorations créatives. Malgré son apparence soignée et son sourire éclatant, elle ne parvient pas à cacher son malaise. En chantant de tout son cœur, elle se remémore son enfance. Emily, dans un moment d'émotion, embrasse le marié et laisse éclater sa joie, même si cela se termine par une chute maladroite sur la piste de danse. Le milieu festif et chaleureux contraste avec la tristesse qui s'installe à la suite de son décès, lorsque tout le monde se rappelle sa vivacité tout en réalisant que sa présence leur manque. Cette mélodie dépeint les joies et les peines liées à la vie, célébrant des souvenirs d'amour et d'amitié, tout en soulignant la fragilité de l'existence.
