Nellie McKay - I Wanna Get Married lyrics

rate me

I wanna get married

yes, I need a spouse

I want a nice Leave it to Beaverish

golden retriever and a little white house

I wanna get married

I need to cook meals

I wanna pack you cute little lunches

for my Brady bunches

then read Danielle Steele

I wanna escape

this rat race I've created

I'm feelin' enervated

I don't care if I make it

I just want to bake a sugar cake for you

to take to work in the morn

and I'll stay home cleaning the dishes

and keeping your wishes all warm

I wanna get married

that's why I was born

I wanna partake in bake sales for the classroom

I wanna hear the sweet tune

of Sally's little vroom-vroom

as she zooms around my broom

as I exhume the gloom

of my shallow life

I wanna be simple and honest and dimpled

'cause I am your wife

I will never tarry

I'm not even torn

I wanna get married

that's why I was born
