34 years ago I was getting ready
To go to the church to get married
34 years ago I was very nervous
I must admit I was a little bit scared
Mum and dad were there with me
Debbie was helping me to get ready
Alec was to drive one of the cars
Blue was my favourite colour
So we were all colour coordinated
I had a royal blue ribbon tied
Around those beautiful flowers
I had my precious Magyar grandmother's
Embroidered shawl she made for me
Something old, something new
Something borrowed; something blue!
It was all organised: all ready to go
We were standing outside the house
At 45 Jenkins Avenue
In Rostrevor, Adelaide.
Taking a photograph just before
We headed off to the church!
Suddenly: a car of hooligans
Drove past: yelling and screaming
Someone threw a pomegranate at me
I thank God it missed!
I just couldn't believe that people
Could be so awful: to try to ruin
My special day; without a second thought!
(Pomegranates are for fertility)
