from Elastic No​-​No Band Anthology: Cheese Fries, Klaus Kinski, and Manboobs by Elastic No-No Band

lyrics

1: Angels are dancing in my eyelids (2: Oh yeah?)
2: Is that why you’re dancing on my feet? (1: I’m sorry)
1: Have you ever thought about having kids?
2: Do you ask this of every girl that you meet?

1: I’m not joking,
I want a family
2: Hold up slick,
you just met me
1: I know,
but it’s plain to me that…

You’re the one
I’ve been dreaming of
You’re the one
I was born to love
You’re the one
To share my life
You’re the one
To be my wife

2: Now I don’t mean to make fun of your plans
(1: That’s okay, whatcha got to say?)
But I cannot be untrue
(1: Go ahead, tell me anyway)
I’m not yet ready to marry any man
(1: Well, of course, I didn’t mean today)
And when I am, I’m not gonna marry you.

1: Now don’t be hasty
2: I think you’re crazy and weird
1: That doesn’t faze me / 2: Oh dear
Somebody save me

I’m not the one
You’ve been dreaming of
There is no one
Who was born to love me
I’m not the one
To share your life
As long as I’m young,
I’m nobody’s wife

1: You need to look inside yourself
So you can know the truth
2: I wear my truth on sleeve
So I don’t need much more proof
1: You need to take a moment
And just set aside your pride
2: It won’t take another moment
For me to decide

1: Angels are dancing in my eyes
(2: Oh thank god, the bill is finally here)
And I know it’s because of you
(2: That’s nice, I’m just gonna go pay for my beer)
And I know tonight has been quite a surprise
(2: Well, I think that’s abundantly clear)
But I hope to see much more of you

2: Are you deaf, or just stupid?
1: I’m struck dumb by cupid
2: That come-on was putrid

1: You’re the one
I’ve been dreaming of
2: There is no one
Who was born to love me
1: But you’re the one
To share my life
2: As long as I’m young,
I’m nobody’s wife.
