#2 MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE

Intro
Let’s have a marriage of convenience.
I’ll wear my white dress. You’ll wear your black suit.
Let’s have a marriage of convenience.
You’ll wear your white shirt. I’ll wear my black look.

Verse
Let’s have a marriage of convenience.
I’ll wear my white dress. You’ll wear your black suit.
Let’s have a marriage of convenience.
You’ll wear your white shirt. I’ll wear my black look.

Chorus
You say that you are getting lonely.
Don’t my pretty eyes keep you satisfied?
You tell me that you are very lonely.
Don’t those office guys keep you out all night?

Verse
We have a marriage of convenience.
I keep myself well; you at the motel.
We have a marriage of convenience.
Our kids do well at school. They must take after you.

Chorus
You say that you are feeling lonely.
Don’t those young thighs keep you warm at night?
You tell me that you are very lonely.
All those late nights… Don’t they get you by?

Verse
We had a marriage of convenience.
Great taste in irony: strangers between my sheets.
We had a marriage of convenience.
All of the other wives tell me to pharmacise.

Chorus
You said that you were very lonely.
Well, so was I… Well, so was I.
You keep telling me that you were fucking lonely.
Didn’t your late nights get you by? Didn’t they get you by?
