Marriage Chant

Greg Brown

3 acessos

marriage is impossiblemarriage is dull
your dance card is emptyyour plate is too full
it's something no sensible person would do
i wish i was marriedi wish I was married
i wish i was marriedto you

marriage is unnaturalmarriage is hard
you rotate your tiresyou work in the yard
you fight about nothing every hour or two
i wish i was marriedi wish i was married
i wish i was marriedto 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 marriedi wish i was married
i wish i was marriedto 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 marriedi wish i was married
i wish i was marriedto you

i like the roll in rock & roll
& all i know is you're the sister of my soul
& we make a circlejust we two
& i wish i was marriedi wish i was married
i wish i was marriedto you

the sky unpredictablemysterious 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 marriedi wish i was married
i wish i was uh huh huhto 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 marriedi wish i was married
i wish i was marriedto youto youto yoummhmmto you
