I am not the kind of girl
Who should be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion
But you are not the kind of boy
Who should be marrying 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 gown shaped like a pastry
This.. is.. surely not what you 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 you when you re out of the church at the backdoor
Don t wait or say a single vow
You need to hear me out and they said speak now
Fun 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 that I was uninvited by your lovely bride-to-be
She.. floats down the aisle like a pageant queen
I.. know.. you wish it was me
You wish it was me don t you?
Don t say yes, run away now
I ll meet you when you re out of the church at the backdoor
Don t wait or say a single vow
You need to hear me out and they said speak now
Don t say yes, run away now
I ll meet you when you re out of the church at the backdoor
Don t wait or say a single vow
Your time is running out and they said speak now
I hear the preacher say speak now or forever hold your peace
There s the 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 looking at you
I am not the kind of girl
Who should be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion
But you are not the kind of boy
Who should be marrying the wrong girl
So don t say yes, run away now
I ll meet you when you re out of the church at the backdoor
Don t wait or say a single vow
You need to hear me out and they said speak now
And you say lets run away now
I ll meet when I m out of my tux at the backdoor
Baby I didn t say my vows,
So glad you were around
When they said Speak now
