Je vais me marier, Marie

"Je vais me marier, Marie" (English translation: "I´m getting married, Mary") was the Swiss entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1973, performed in French by Patrick Juvet. In the song he gathers his friends round to "laugh and sing through the night" and he gives them the news that he "is going to be married". He is renouncing his youth and folies today, for tomorrow will be the time to think about life and children. As he will not be seeing them any more, he tells them to drink to his health and lost liberty.
