The Lyrics

Some people think a public proposal is romantic. Some people think it's showboat-y. Others, however, have a more sinister motive...
Ooh, yeah

A bit surprised you asked me out
Our friendship was great but with this stunt you've got your red flags flying
It's sickening, making a thing
About my conversion to a wife, hence my aversion
Had conversations about the wait
That we agreed for marriage, this is not okay
Sinking in that you weren't listening
The crowds love mushy stuff, won't give 'em what they want

They're amazed I have the gall
To reject your love and all
But I will make them see
Your real intention to put pressure on me
Live proposal, live proposal, live proposal
Live proposal, live proposal, live proposal

I should be glad that you've gone and made
A real grand gesture? Well, I wouldn't say all that
Kinda happy you did nothing weird at all
Just the "huge crowds watch" plan
No bungee-jumping trick, no paid skywriters
No message spelled out on six thousand dogs
Happy for the simpleness, allows me to focus
On how you want to not look like pure scum

Make a great show for the throngs
So a "no" would just look wrong
But you there on one knee?
An invitation for my own to your teeth
Live proposal, live proposal, live proposal
Live proposal, live proposal, live proposal

Not gonna fall for it
Your guilt-inducing trick
I can see right through it
'Cause you're a total prick

Used to think you were nice (live proposal), an awkward sort of love (live proposal)
So that is why I have my doubts (live proposal)
That this is genuine, dear (live proposal), too big a reversal (live proposal)
From your M.O., stop (live proposal) before I clean your clock

Only dating for two months
So this is a bit too much
Don't know why you'd believe
That social pressure would get a "Yes!" from me
When this plays out when we watch
Films or TV shows, I pause
And rant and rave and seethe
'Bout how I'd hate it, now you pull it on me?

So go and take that ring
And stick it up your ring
