Danny Elfman - The Wedding

Wedding
A wedding
We're going to have a wedding
A wedding

Wedding
A wedding
We're going to have a wedding
A wedding

The spiders think you're very cute
But goodness knows you need a suit
But have no fears we're quite adept
We'll have you looking lovely lovely lovely lovely lovely lovely lovely lovely yet
A little stitch
A little tuck
Some tender loving care
A little thread will fix you up
And we've got plenty as you see
And absolutely we guarantee
Your quality will pass
A little here will fix the mess
We're going to do our very best
When everybody sees you they will all be quite impressed
They will all be quite impressed

Wedding
A wedding
We're going to have a wedding

A wedding cake is no mistake
It must be quite sublime
We're missing something
Throw some dust
I wish I had more time
Perhaps there's something I can do
These bones might help a bit
Oh my nose
Sorry
Wait a minute, that's it
Voila
Well all that
A little this
A perfect cake is hard to miss
A WEDDING
A WEDDING
WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A WEDDING

Huzzah
Huzzah
We're going to have a wedding (Hooray)
A wedding (Hooray)
Let's all get out and cheer cause
The bride is getting married today
Hooray

One thing you can surely say
Is we will stand beside
And till the end we will defend
Our one and only bride
A bride to be
A bride to be
Our lovely little bride
Huzzah (Hooray)
Huzzah (Hooray)
Our bride is getting married today

(oh there she is)
(here she comes)

Oh Ah Oo
Oh Ah Oo
Our bride is here
She's waited for this day for many a year
For this day for this day
Our hopes and our pride
The bride is here
Here comes the bride

Ahh
Ahh
Here comes the bride
Here comes the bride

For this day for this day
Will last forever
And all of her friends have worked together
To make it the perfect day she's always dreamed
Our hopes and our pride
Our bride
Our lovely bride

We're going to have a party
Like nobody's ever seen
The living in the land above
Will not know where they've been
The land above
The party of
The bride

Here comes the bride
The glorious day of days
Up to the land of the living
To celebrate

Back to: Beetlejuice


The Beetlejuice soundtrack, first released in 1988 on LP, CD, and cassette tape, features most of the film's score, written and arranged by Danny Elfman. Geffen reissued the original 1988 soundtrack on vinyl in 2015, which was remastered and pressed to vinyl by Waxwork Records in 2019 for the film's 30th anniversary.

The soundtrack features two original recordings performed by Harry Belafonte used in the film: "Day-O (The Banana Boat Song)" and "Jump in the Line (Shake, Senora)". Two other vintage Belafonte recordings that appear in the film are absent from the soundtrack: "Man Smart, Woman Smarter" and "Sweetheart from Venezuela".

The soundtrack entered the Billboard 200 albums chart the week ending June 25, 1988, at No. 145, peaking two weeks later at No. 118 and spending a total of six weeks on the chart. This was after the film had already fallen out of the top 10 and before the video release in October. "Day-O" received a fair amount of airplay at the time in support of the soundtrack.

The complete score (with the Belafonte tracks included) was released in both the DVD and the Blu-ray as an isolated music track in the audio settings menu; this version of the audio track consists entirely of "clean" musical cues, uninterrupted by dialogue or sound effects.
Genre(s): Soundtrack
Length: 36:00
Released: June 7th, 1988
Year: 1988
