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
