That has to be chuck berry and C'est La Vie (You never can tell)!

It was a teenage wedding, and the old folks wished 'em well
You could see that Pierre did truly love the mademoiselle

Currency, escape.
Attain viable employment with sufficient remuneration to achieve contentedness.

Sorcerers of death's construction
Ooh lord bum bum bum...

But my chronological aspect was tending to the feral
