"I Married A Girl" lyrics

"I Married A Girl"

I married a girl
A new wave coastal Massachusetts French German case
I married a girl
Who didn't get along with her mother
I married a girl
Who only felt the tears that fall from rage on her face
I married a girl
I wanted her and thought I could love her

Virgin eyes and the green marinas
Kitchen tiles and the vacuum cleaners
Angry words and the miles between us
Major crimes and the misdemeanors

I married a girl
And so begun the fifteen year dispute for control
I married a girl
Who had to wear the pants and the panties
I married a girl
Who lived up to her birth sign Taurus bull heart and soul
I married a girl
Who's knack for lack of tact was uncanny

Virgin eyes and the green marinas
Kitchen tiles and the vacuum cleaners
Angry words and the miles between us
Major crimes and the misdemeanors

If I say I miss you I miss you I do girl
If I say I'm sorry believe me somehow
If I say your happy, I'm happy for you girl
If you find your true love I wish you that now Now

I married a girl
I knew her stubborn ways would keep me stressed and distressed
I married a girl
Although I saw what fate would befall
I married a girl
Leaving now I lose my home and place in that nest
I married a girl
The easy part's I know she won't call me

Virgin eyes and the green marinas
Kitchen tiles and the vacuum cleaners
Angry words and the miles between us
Major crimes and the misdemeanors

What I did I did for me
And also you to some degree
I saw the truth and set you free
I hope we'll learn what love could be now
