Jonathan Richman There's Something About Mary lyrics

His friends say, ‽Stop whining”
They've had enough of that
His friends would say, ‽Stop pining
There's other girls to look at”

They've tried to set him up with Tiffany and Indigo
But there's something about Mary, that they don't know

Mary, there's just something about Mary

Well, his friends say, ‽Look, life's no fairy tale”
That he should have some fun, he's suffered long enough
Well, they may now about domestic and imported ale
But they don't know a thing about love


Well, his friends would say, ‽He's dreaming
And living in the past”
But they've never fallen in love
So his friends need not be asked

His friends would say, ‽Be reasonable”
His friends would say, ‽Just let go”
But there's something about Mary, that they don't know

Mary, there's just something about Mary
