Let's Pretend We Aren't Married
Not a response, per se, to
Prince's Let's Pretend We're Married,
but you get the drift.
Lyrics:
If you really want to know
all about the night we met
I'd tell you that I didn't
have a five-year plan in mind
Nowadays around that time
I'm more than often half asleep
I'm lucky if I make it
Past the local news at nine
I may be a little thick
But I can tell when something's wrong
Usually about an hour after
It's too late
But let's pretend I got it right
Let's pretend it's up for grabs
Meet me at O'Malley's bar
At nine, prepared to be surprised
Let's pretend we aren't married
I can get you out of bed
A gin and tonic for your humor
And a penny for your thoughs
Let's fabricate the answers
To the questions strangers would have asked
I can take you back to my place
I can show you all the rooms
We can watch some scary
Movie that we've seen before
When you're starting to get sleepy
When you're starting to get coy
I'll put on a pot of coffee
Stretch the date an hour more
Let's pretend we aren't married
I can get you out of bed
Hit the snooze bar and I'll wake up in your arms again
Hit the snooze bar and I'll wake up in your arms again
Hit the snooze bar ...
When we wake it won't be morning
When we're dressed it won't be noon
We'll have lunch for breakfast
Find the crayons, color till it's dark
When the evening news is starting
And I'm tugging at your arm
Try your hardest not to laugh,
I'm being serious
And it's funny that I'm funny
When I'm trying to be sexy
Not the other way around
The way it used to be
Let's pretend we aren't married
I can get you out of bed
