White Dress

My baby wants a white dress
And a husband to go with it
And if I'm not mistaken
I think that she's looking at me
I guess I don't know who else it would be

And see, it's not like I don't want to
It's just the stores fresh out of my suit
And there's no other place on earth
That's weaving vegan fleece
Into grooms wear on the cheap

Well, okay, I might be hiding from something (ahh)
It's not like forever is promising nothing (ahh)
Now, is it? (Ahh)
And you don't wanna sell a gently-used ring (ahh)
Or figure out who gets Fido which days (ahh)
Now, do you? C'mon, do you? (Ahh)

So don't look at me like that, it's not like I'm running away
I've got no agenda, but I'm neglecting to say
I don't wanna keep you unwed into the grave, oh
I just need a minute, just one minute, babe
But babe, babe, ooh babe

She asks, "What's the hold up?
If you really think you're gonna
What changes between now and some distant day?"
Well, to be honest, it might look like nothing

See, I could tart myself up falsely
And affect manhood expertly
Handsome smile, charming toast, camera flash
Wouldn't you rather it not be an act?

So what's the big deal if I'm frightened of something (ahh)
It's not like forever is promising nothing (ahh)
Now, is it? (Ahh)
And you don't wanna sell a gently-used ring (ahh)
Or figure out who gets Fido which days (ahh)
Now, do you? C'mon, do you? (Ahh)

So don't look at me like that, it's not like I'm running away
I've got no agenda that I'm neglecting to say
I don't wanna keep you unwed into the grave, oh
I just need a minute, just one minute, babe
But babe, babe, ooh babe
