Greg Brown - Marriage Chant lyrics

Marriage is impossible marriage is dull Your dance card is empty your plate is too full It's something no sensible person would do I wish i was married i wish I was married I wish i was married to you Marriage is unnatural marriage is hard You rotate your tires you work in the yard You fight about nothing every hour or two I wish i was married i wish i was married I wish i was married to 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 married i wish i was married I wish i was married to 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 married i wish i was married I wish i was married to you I like the roll in rock & roll & all i know is you're the sister of my soul & we make a circle just we two & i wish i was married i wish i was married I wish i was married to you The sky unpredictable mysterious 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 married i wish i was married I wish i was uh huh huh to you The gra** is always greener is what they say to me If I was your husband maybe I'd agree I like brown gra** & vows that stay true & i wish i was married i wish i was married I wish i was married to you to you to you mmhmm to you
