For the benefit of Tom and Mary
Before our guests arrive
If they haven't found out already, it's gonna blow their minds
Will they find the strength to find the will to testify
And for the benefit of Tom and Mary
There's something we can't hide anymore

Everybody here knows the story
Some have fabricated extra parts
See the sisters shouting whispers
Feeding heartache to the sparks
Put a damper on the party
It'll lighten up this room
And for the benefit of Tom and Mary
They've got to see the truth today

Miss Powersson says, "here they come"
And all the chatter and the smiles have come undone
And you could here a pin drop on the carpet floor
Everyone's pretending not to hear them knocking at the door

For the benefit of Tom and Mary
Before our guests arrive
If they haven't found out already
It's gonna blow their minds
If they haven't found out already
And all the seams all seem to show
And for the benefit of Tom and Mary
For the benefit of Tom and Mary
For the benefit of Tom and Mary
We gotta let the truth be known
