lyrics

Some girls must figure this out sooner
Maybe when they’re leaning on the Easy Bake
Planning every layer in the wedding cake.
This flower must be a late bloomer
Before I met you darling I could never see
But since you ask it’s come to me:
I don’t want to get married.
Oh it’s sweet to see you down on your knees
But you know all those flowers would only make us sneeze.
I don’t want to get married.
They talk a lot about it so there must be a catch
But I don’t think I mind if our flatware doesn’t match.
I don’t want to get married but if you say you do, I do.
If you say you do then I do too.
White is not my color and spaghetti straps won’t do
I just want to love, honor, cherish you.
I want to fight about it so we know it’s strong
Then spend the whole night dancing to our song.
I don’t want to get married.
The sentiment is borrowed and the words aren’t new,
But I want to be there when you’re old and when you’re blue.
Are there two sides of the aisle so the families won’t fight
Until the politics of buffet mixes later in the night.
From the wind I hear the march begin the tensions grow
The flower girl is terrified and then she steals the show – no!
I don’t want to get married.
I don’t need to watch while you do violence to a glass
Or have some out of work Elvis bless us in Vegas
Up-do, down-do, chignon, it’s a pain in the ass
But if you say you do, I do. If you say you do then I do too.
Say you do, I do.
