LYRICS:

One for sorrow, two for joy

These are the rules that you must employ.

Mother told me time to settle down

Just find a man and a house in a cosy little town.

It’s one for sorrow and two for joy

You don’t need a friend to get your happy end…

Father told me don’t you be so smart

Just find a boy that you like

Who’ll try not to break your heart.

To have no sorrow

You can’t go wrong

Taking words of advice from an old love song

It’s one for sorrow 2 for joy

These are the rules that you must employ

It’s one for sorrow

You only fail if you measure up your life against a fairytale

The happyeverafter dream is a lie that they sell you in the magazines

Mother told me life would be complete

With a man and a car and a house on a street

It’s one for sorrow, and two for joy

Cos these are the rules that you must employ

Father told me that there ain’t no pain

That the needle on the record puts together again

To have no sorrow,

You can only fail if you measure up your life against a fairytale

It’s one for sorrow 2 for joy

These are the rules that you must employ

It's one for sorrow

You can’t go wrong

Taking words of advice from an old love song

It’s one for sorrow 2 for joy

These are the rules that you must employ

It’s one for sorrow

You only fail if you measure up your life against a fairytale

It’s one for sorrow…

It’s one for sorrow…

It’s one for sorrow…

It’s one for sorrow…

Oh…

It’s one for sorrow 2 for joy

These are the rules that you must employ

It's one for sorrow

You only fail if you measure up your life against a fairytale

(Measure up your life against a fail)

It’s one for sorrow 2 for joy

These are the rules that you must employ

It’s one for sorrow

You can’t go wrong

Taking words of advice from an old love song

(It’s all over all over all over all over…

This is a really nice track. I love the production and the mix. The video ended up being in mono though.
