Don't
Marry Her
(Heaton/Rotheray)
Think of you with pipe
and slippers
Think of her in bed
Laying there just watching telly
Then think of me instead
I'll never grow so old
and flabby
That could never be
Don't marry her, fuck me
And your love light
shines like cardboard
But your work shoes are glistening
She's a PhD in "I told you so"
You've a knighthood in "I'm not listening"
She'll grab your sweaty
bollocks
Then slowly raise her knee
Don't marry her, fuck me
And the Sunday sun
shines down on San Francisco bay
And you realise you can't make it anyway
You have to wash the car
Take the kiddies to the park
Don't marry her, fuck me
Those lovely Sunday
mornings
With breakfast brought in bed
Those blackbirds look like knitting needles
Trying to peck your head
Those birds will peck
your soul out
And throw away the key
Don't marry her, fuck me
And the kitchen's always
tidy
And the bathroom's always clean
She's a diploma in "just hiding things"
You've a first in "low esteem"
When your socks smell of
angels
But your life smells of Brie
Don't marry her, fuck me
And the Sunday sun
shines down on San Francisco bay
And you realise you can't make it anyway
You have to wash the car
Take the kiddies to the park
Don't marry her, fuck me
And the Sunday sun
shines down on San Francisco bay
And you realise you can't make it anyway
You have to wash the car
Take the kiddies to the park
Don't marry her, fuck me
