paroles de chanson I Sang at Your Mom's Wedding? (Live) - Idina Menzel

(I love you) I love you too
I don′t know, I
(You sang at my mom's wedding) I, I don′t know (as a wedding singer)
I sang at your mom's wedding as a wedding singer?
Your mom's wedding?
Have I been doing it that long?

How old is your mom?
(She′s way older than I) did she have you, like, really young?
What?
(It was her second marriage) oh, her second marriage, okay

(It′s my birthday) happy birthday, ma'am, but I′m still on the wedding thing
I'm just, like
What I′m thinking
What's going through my head is, do you have it on video?
′Cause that's a little scary to me

Have you, but not here
Do you put, you, are they gonna release it on there sometime?
'Cause
′Cause if, if memory serves me, my
My hair probably looked like, um
No, it was like, like Julia Roberts in Mystic Pizza, remember?
It was like, really big and the side part was like, started here

But the good thing about that hairstyle
When I was a wedding singer
′Cause sometimes
I was singin' songs that I wasn′t proud of, you know
Like, the, the band leader makes you do all this cheesy stuff
And so I would take the hair and put it over my head

So it's possible, you go revisit that video
That I look more like
Like a, like a, I don′t know what I look like
But my hair will be over my face so that
Something like this could not happen to me

(I love you) I love you too
I don't really know you, sir
I mean, I love you
I think I love you, but let′s be real
I don't even know who you are, like

I think if we went out for a drink, we would
We would fall madly in love perhaps
(It's still my birthday) okay, happy birthday, damn it

How many other birthdays are here in the audience?
I didn′t mean to make you not feel special
I appreciate you (I appreciate you)
Thank you

How about these guys behind me?
And when I say guys, I mean guys and, and, and women (amazing women)
Fierce, amazing, talented, beautiful women, yeah
Don′t say it's your birthday again, ma′am

So, um, this song, you know
I do it all the time whenever I'm on stage
And I, it′s become sort of a mantra for me, I guess
Just doesn't feel right when I don′t do it
And, um

Well, you know, if you're
If you're like the one straight guy that was dragged to the audience tonight
That doesn′t know who I am
The, um, by that sign of laughter
Maybe there′s a few straight men
That were dragged to the audience this evening
And they didn't google me or anything

Just wanna get laid tonight by their wives
And they′re here
Sorry, cover the little girls' ears, I′m sorry
I said it once, I'll say it again, I′m a Disney princess, but I got a lotta queens in the audience, so

It's very hard to reconcile my demographic
I don't even know what I′m talking about anymore
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, I′ma say, I was, I was actually
I was trashin' the straight guys because, um
Assuming that they don′t know musical theater
Which isn't nice because my ex-husband
And my boyfriend, I met them both at musicals
And I think that they′re straight, so
At least I hope so, uh

Anyway, so
This song was the very first job that I got
It was from a show called Rent, and

And, uh
And the show is written by a man named Jonathan Larson
Yeah
And 20 years ago, he, uh, he wrote the show
Or he was workin' on it, and

He, um, he hired a bunch of us and we rehearsed for about five weeks
And then on the night of the very first performance
In front of an audience, he suddenly passed away
So, it was an incredibly sad, complicated time
And I think it taught me, you know, what′s really important
What we do here, and

Every night, you know, we'd have to get up on stage
And make sure that we really did right by him
So it gave us a real perspective
Taught us priorities, as our world was changing, 'cause the show was
So successful

So anyway, so, I like to do this, um
Song when I can so I can say thank you to him every night
For changing my life
And, um
′Cause my last wedding, by the way, when your mom
Maybe it was your mom′s wedding

It was, it was the, it was 1995 of December
And then, uh, came Rent, and then I didn't do any more weddings
And, uh, ′cause your mom's wedding was such a
Such a bad experience for me
I′m just kidding
I just, I'm just kidding, but that just, like, came for me
No, I...

Oh, man, those jobs were hard
Sometimes the old people would come up and yell at me
In the middle and tell me I was singin′ too loud
Anyway, I digress
But...

So I say thank you to him for
For teaching me so much
And also, for teaching us all what the show was all about
Which was living for today
And not taking people for granted
Being true to yourself, your artistic integrity and who you are
And really sticking to your dreams, you know?
And, um, most of all, the living in the moment
'Cause life is so fleeting, you know?

We just have to really take care of each other
And love each other
