mary

Pulled up in his car, he was early, he was dressed sharp

Looked like every other boy I'd fallen for so far

There was nothing wrong, he might have fit the mould

If she hadn't come along, I'd still be on my toes

We were on a double date, looking at her face

Every move she makes, oh, my God, and really, really liked that

Being on our own, smelling her cologne

You were on the phone and I know that you really, really hate that

We were getting on, you were getting all insecure and I'm sorry

Yeah, everything she said made me second guess

Is it her instead 'cause I think that I like her

No, this has never happened to me before

Where I ditch the guy for the girl next door

She leans in to kiss me, I can't stay no

We go 'round and 'round on the merry-go

Yeah, and Mary's supposed to be mine

(Be mine, be mine)

(Supposed to be mine)

(Be mine, be mine)

Pulled up in her car, she was thirty minutes late

But something 'bout the way that she never seems to try hard

Doesn't fit the mould, but normal's getting old

I'm glad she came along, I can't get off my toes

We were on a double date, he was in the way

She should never change anything

'Cause I really, really liked that

I put the record on, she sang all the songs

And now I know that I like her

No, this has never happened to me before

Where I ditch the guy for the girl next door

She leans in to kiss me, I can't stay no

We go 'round and 'round on the merry-go

Yeah, and Mary's supposed to be mine

(Be mine, be mine)

(Supposed to be mine)

(Be mine, be mine)

Look at Mary, you can't blame me

She makes my whole world go crazy

Everybody wants to be me

Everybody wants a Mary

No, this has never happened to me before

Where I ditch the guy for the girl next door

She leans in to kiss me, I can't stay no

We go 'round and 'round on the merry-go (The merry-go)

No, this has never happened to me before

Where I ditch the guy for the girl next door

She leans in to kiss me, I can't stay no

We go 'round and 'round on the merry-go

Yeah, and Mary's supposed to be mine

Look at Mary, you can't blame me

She makes my whole world go crazy

Everybody wants to be me

Everybody wants a Mary
