I am not the kind of girl,
Who should be rudely bargin' in on a white veil occasion,
But bạn are not the kind of boy,
Who should be marryin' the wrong girl

I sneak in and see your friends,
And her snotty little family, all dressed in pastel,
And she is yelling at a bridesmaid,
Somewhere back inside a room,
Wearing a áo choàng shaped like a pastry,
This is surely not what bạn thought it would be,
I lose myself in a daydream,
Where I stand and say

"Don't say yes, run away now,
I'll meet bạn when you're out,
Of the church at the back door,
Don't wait hoặc say a single vow,
bạn need to hear me out,"
And they said, "Speak now"

Fond gestures are exchanged,
And the organ starts to play
A song that sounds like a death march,
And I am hiding in the curtains,
It seems I was uninvited bởi your lovely bride-to-be,
She floats down the aisle like a pageant queen,
But I know bạn wish it was me,
bạn wish it was me, don't you?

Don't say yes, run away now,
I'll meet bạn when you're out,
Of the church at the back door,
Don't wait hoặc say a single vow,
bạn need to hear me out,
And they said, "Speak now"

Don't say yes, run away now,
I'll meet bạn when you're out,
Of the church at the back door,
Don't wait hoặc say a single vow,
Your time is running out,
And they said, "Speak now"

I hear the preacher say,
"Speak now hoặc forever hold your peace,"
There's a silence, there's my last chance,
I stand up with shaking hands,
All eyes on me,
Horrified looks from everyone in the room,
But I'm only lookin' at you

I am not the kind of girl,
Who should be rudely bargin' in on a white veil occasion,
But bạn are not the kind of boy,
Who should be marryin' the wrong girl

Don't say yes, run away now,
I'll meet bạn when you're out,
Of the church at the back door,
Don't wait hoặc say a single vow,
bạn need to hear me out,
And they said, "Speak now"

And bạn say, "Let's run away now,
I'll meet bạn when I'm out of my tux at the back door,
Oh baby, I didn't say my vow,
So glad bạn were around when they said, "Speak now"
