28 Days After the Vows
Strolling up the chapel isle, each one looking like a jewel
Everyone saying of the bride, ‘Ooooh she looks so beautiful’
Stopping before the preacher, he leads them through the vows
Not noticing the bride having a funny twitch across her brow
At the moment of ‘I do’, hopping like a raving kangaroo
She sinks her teeth into his skull, crimson red begins to spew
Like a tasty watermelon, her face completely blood stained
She looks directly into the camera and roars the word, “Brains!!!”
The audience giggles in horror, the popcorn losing its fun
Even Hannibal Lecter chuckles, ‘they got me on that one’
Just another zombie movie you can see at any mall
You laugh it off, slow your heart, and try to remain calm
You think you want this person, to be husband and wife
But once you put that ring on, you may be stuck for life
So if s/he begins to watch you with a twinkle and a drool
You’ve got about twenty eight days to have it all annulled
