Listen to my song here. Thanks to Lukas Merrild for the bass.
They didn’t need a preacher,
no, they didn’t need a kirk.
They didn’t need a teacher
to tell them what would work.
They threw this great big party
aback of Ballimore.
Our Jeremy and Barbie
were married on the shore.
Imagine a wedding on the shore,
the sweetest thing you ever saw.
Jeremy and Barbie were married on the shore.
The bride arrived stage centre
and met the leading man.
Belinda was their mentor,
and the nuptials began.
As clouds collected darkly,
we witnessed deep rapport.
Our Jeremy and Barbie
were married on the shore.
Imagine a wedding on the shore,
the sweetest thing you ever saw.
Jeremy and Barbie were married on the shore.
We luckily found refuge
ahead of heavy rain.
It turned into a deluge.
We toasted with champagne.
The speeches simply charmed me,
and the Ceilidh filled the floor.
Our Jeremy and Barbie
were married on the shore.
Imagine a wedding on the shore,
the sweetest thing you ever saw.
Jeremy and Barbie were married on the shore.
The kitchen crew were gracious.
Phoebe keenly shone her light.
We somehow stayed vivacious
till late into the night.
Next day it was so balmy
we knocked on heaven’s door.
Our Jeremy and Barbie
were married on the shore.
Imagine a wedding on the shore,
the sweetest thing you ever saw.
Jeremy and Barbie were married on the shore.
Listen to the poem version without the chorus and with two additional verses:
With coffee served by Harry
from his Maclaurin’s bar,
the aunt he’d just seen marry
had her surname on his car.
And, as she hinted smartly,
it’s what it was before
our Jeremy and Barbie
were married on the shore.
So now I’m all excited
about them coming here.
They’re openly invited
at any time of year.
We’ll gaze on fields of barley,
then we’ll go out and explore.
Our Jeremy and Barbie
were married on the shore.
