(Married man) (Merryman) - coffin-dodger

I want the date, I want the cake, I want the flowers I want the ring, I want the fancy bridal shower The meant to be, I want the dream come true I want the bells in that white church ringin' My sister's speech after too much drinkin' Something borrowed, something blue Tin cans tied to the back of a Buick One of these days I just might do it I want the wedding, but I don't wanna be married I won't settle for any Tom, Dick or Harry I wanna pop champagne, I want a dress in white Change my name for just one night I want the wedding, but I don't wanna be married I love my dog, I love my friends, I love my freedom Nobody hoggin' all the covers when I'm sleepin' I'm content all alone at a table for two Yeah there's a five in ten chance some seven years later He's wearin' my dress or sleepin' with the neighbour And I'm stuck with his name in a bad heart-shaped tattoo I'll take the money, honey, and the honeymoon The whole damn thing except "I do" I want the wedding, but I don't wanna be married I won't settle for any Tom, Dick or Harry I wanna pop champagne, I want a dress in white Change my name for just one night I want the wedding, but I don't wanna be married I wanna pop champagne, I want a dress in white Change my name for just one night I want the wedding, but I don't wanna be married I wanna go to heaven, but I don't wanna get buried I want the wedding, but I don't wanna be married, no

I don't think I lied when I said, "I wanted that life" Maybe I was too young to understand what I wanted to begin with But babe it was true, with all that I knew It felt like forever that December 2 A fairytale start, crossing our hearts Rode off in a car that said, "Just Married" But I wasn't made for fixing a plate or keeping our problems buried I wasn't strong enough to keep on with all of the weight that I carried Yeah, it was love, then it was just married Long distance texts, make up for time sex Tired of asking when I'll see you next I'm too mad to fight, so I stare and cry At the picture of you and me wearing white Just married Just married But I wasn't made for fixing a plate or keeping our problems buried No, I wasn't strong enough to hold on with all of the weight that I carried Yeah, it was love, then it was just married It was a beautiful wedding Sometimes I still taste the Veuve And dammit I wish I wasn't this ready To undo I do But I wasn't made for fixing a plate and getting divorced sounds scary But I'm just not strong enough to hold on with all of the weight that I carried Yeah, it was love, it really was Then it was just married
