The Lyrics
I admit to taking some lines from another artist who parodied this song (marked with *'s)... but I liked that she'd parodied it to make the speaker a femme lesbian singing about a butch lesbian... I thought "What the heck?" and presto- gay male lyrics! ... You need to know the song though...
The boy that I marry will probably be
As butch as a hunk of machinery...*
The boy that I adore
Will wear dress shirts, tank tops, tight jeans and much more...
He'll be tough but sweet, and he'll have chest hair,
And he'll enchant me with his tough guy air
'stead of cruisin', I'll be usin'*
His shoulder to rest on while snoozin'...*
A faint-hearted fairy the boy that I marry won't be...*
As butch as a hunk of machinery...*
The boy that I adore
Will wear dress shirts, tank tops, tight jeans and much more...
He'll be tough but sweet, and he'll have chest hair,
And he'll enchant me with his tough guy air
'stead of cruisin', I'll be usin'*
His shoulder to rest on while snoozin'...*
A faint-hearted fairy the boy that I marry won't be...*

Funny version of that sappy, sexist song.
