I promise not to rip you off
And I promise not to sell you out
I will never smoke all your stash
If I happen to find it whilst tidying up
Which let's face it is unlikely
Well I would always leave you at least a joint is worth anyway
And I will never eat the last bit of cereal
And then put the empty packet back
Hoping you won't notice
Or if I do I will pay for the next lot I promise
Because I know that really gets on your nerves
And I will never sleep with any of your friends
Well not your best friends
I don't know just what I'm meant to do
I don't want to make it wrong for you
How can we escape what is happened to
All those others who have gone before us two
Baby we have lived together
Now we'll do it all forever
Hold my hand don't ever let it go
Close your eyes hold tight and here we go
And how do we avoid being like all those other cheesemasters
Demonstrating the facilities of their new car and the trouserpress
From huntergatherer to washerdryer is a long strange trip
And what if our kids turn into pudgy blobs
Wearing unionjack underpants
Addicted to coffeewhitener
Bloated caricatures of something
Vaguely recognisable as a human being
A human being that you once loved
I don't know just what I'm meant to do
I don't want to make it wrong for you
How can we escape what is happened to
All those others who have gone before us two
Baby we have lived together
Now we'll do it all forever
Hold my hand don't ever let it go
Close your eyes hold tight and here we go
So this is it
We are walking down the aisle the dawning of a new era
Is this the start of a new airbrushed Disneylife
Or some 36part depressingashell Northern
Drama to be repeated every night
For the rest of our lives
And I'm frightened oh yeah I'm shitting Barratt houses here
Is this the right thing
And then suddenly I'm turning to look at your face and I'm saying
I do I do I do
I don't know just what I'm meant to do
I don't want to make it wrong for you
How can we escape what is happened to
All those who have gone before us two
Baby we have lived together
Now we will do it all forever
Hold my hand don't ever let it go
Close your eyes hold tight and here we go
Oooh ah oooh ah oooh la ooh la la la
I do
