Shotgun Wedding

Ten years out of high school
Still no idea what to do
You took him home from a nightclub
He took a nightclub to you
Now I watch from the window
Too guilty to scream
My feet are like steel
I might be in a dream
Well every time I see you
You look bigger than you did the day before
And even though I know its not my fault
I wish it was
I can only ride the elevator all night
Long from floor to floor
And I can only stand outside
Your window in dustthe
So how about a shotgun wedding
What about your dignity
What about a different setting
What about me
All your daddys wishes honored
All of that security
How about a shotgun wedding
What about me
I guess Im a loner
Some call me a freak
I saw you in the hallway
Too guilty to speak
Now I sleep in the daytime
And I sleep on the floor
I dial your number and I knock on your door
But every time I hear your voice or footsteps
I get frozen in my place
And I have to struggle for the courage just to run
I can see the eyes of all the ones
That left you glowing in your face
And I just wanna help you with this life
That youve begun
So how about a shotgun wedding
What about your dignity
What about a different setting
What about me
All your daddys wishes honored
All of that security
What about a shotgun wedding
What about me
What about a shotgun wedding
What about me
What about me
