Lulu Crane's Wedding
Unholy Matrimony: A Melodic Pact of Love and Damnation
Lyrics
It's gonna be your way
Emphasizing the bride's control over the situation
He's gonna be your Lord
Referring to the groom as a dominant figure or authority
You married the Preacher man
Stating the bride's union with a man of religion
You married the Devil
Symbolizing the groom as sinister or morally corrupt
He's gonna steal your soul
Implies the groom's intention to harm spiritually
He's gonna change your name
Signifying a significant alteration in identity due to marriage
You married the Preacher man
Reiterating the bride's union with a religious figure
You married the Devil
Repetition for emphasis on the ominous nature of the groom
You married the Devil
-You married the Devil
-Each day you're gonna prey
Portrays a routine of supplication or pleading
At night, you'll be a slave
Suggesting a loss of freedom or autonomy at night
You married the Preacher man
Reiteration of the bride's union with a preacher
You married the Devil
Repetitive emphasis on the ominous nature of the groom
In the church you're gonna sing
-On your knees you're gonna scream
-You married the Preacher man
-You married the Devil
-You married the Devil
Reaffirmation of the marriage's dark undertones
Oh baby you married with the Devil
Highlighting the bride's connection to evil
Oh girl you're gonna swear
Anticipating the bride's acceptance of the groom's authority
So happy to be your Lord
Expressing joy in the groom's supremacy
You married the Preacher man
Reiteration of the unsettling union with a preacher and the devil
You married the Devil
-Oh baby you cannot change
-You are mine and I'm your man
-You married the Preacher man
-You married the Devil
Repetitive warning of the bride's entanglement with evil
Oh baby you married with the Devil
-Oh baby you married with the Devil
-Oh baby you married with the Devil
-Oh baby you married with the Devil
Reinforcement of the bride's connection to the devil
