Marriage Chant |
Marriage is impossible marriage is dull |
Your dance card is empty your plate is too full |
It’s something no sensible person would do |
I wish i was married i wish I was married |
I wish i was married to you |
Marriage is unnatural marriage is hard |
You rotate your tires you work in the yard |
You fight about nothing every hour or two |
I wish i was married i wish i was married |
I wish i was married to you |
The children throw fits in airports & such |
They projectile vomit on aunt ruthie at lunch |
& your in-laws know just what you should do |
But i wish i was married i wish i was married |
I wish i was married to you |
I’d like to fix you my special broth when you’re sick |
I’d like to fight with you when you’re bein' real thick |
There is no end to what i would like to do |
I wish i was married i wish i was married |
I wish i was married to you |
I like the roll in rock & roll |
& all i know is you’re the sister of my soul |
& we make a circle just we two |
& i wish i was married i wish i was married |
I wish i was married to you |
The sky unpredictable mysterious the sea |
Do we wish most for what never can be |
It never can be i guess that’s true |
But i wish i was married i wish i was married |
I wish i was uh huh huh to you |
The grass is always greener is what they say to me |
If I was your husband maybe I’d agree |
I like brown grass & vows that stay true |
& i wish i was married i wish i was married |
I wish i was married to you to you to you mmhmm to you |
