Segundo o Plano

But what a beautiful morning
It's a beautiful morning
For a glorious wedding
A rehearsal, dear
To be more precise

A rehearsal for a grand wedding
As long as there's no unforeseen event
No one to disturb
Or meddle

So, each one
And every tiny
And even microscopic detail
Must work

According to the plan
Our son will marry
According to the plan
And the family will be
Elevated to class A status

To royal halls
And cathedrals
Meetings with the nobility
And five o'clock tea with your highness

To be seen and see
We will be the big shots
Live in the elite
And forget the past

What a terrible morning
Improves this mood
So unsuitable for a wedding

Business is going from bad to worse
And now this great torment
Are we going to be forced to make a fool of ourselves?
Marrying our daughter
To a nouveau riche
So common, bland
It's rock bottom

Rock bottom?
I'm sorry to disagree
They could be bankrupt
Nobles from a museum
Without a penny to spend
Like you and me

Oh, dear
So, each one
And every tiny
Even microscopic detail
Must work
According to the plan

You will have to marry
According to the plan
To lift us
From total poverty and ruin
And be able to honor

Our ancestors
Who would have thought then how to imagine
Our daughter and her snobbery
From a helpless otter
Could be our salvation

Marriage is a partnership
A give and take
She has watched us all her life
And, as we will do, as we will do

Everything must be perfect
Everything must be perfect
Everything must be perfect

So, each one
And every tiny
Even microscopic detail
Must work
According to the plan
