Lyrics
Lisa Loeb Got Married, it was such a shock to me
Now I'm stuck here with this guitar, why did it have to be
behind those hornrimmed glasses, beautiful eyes
beneath those tartan skirts, incredible thighs
when she broke up with Dweezil, thought I had a chance,
but once again, skunked again, unrequited romance
Lisa Loeb got married, it was such a bad surprise
Now I'm stuck here waxing sadness, tears are streaming from my eyes
Now I'm hoping that she's happy, glad that she's found joy,
I hope her hubby's nice, though he's just a young toy boy
As for me I'm home alone here, writing stupid maudlin songs
Guess I'm stuck here well until another geek girl comes along
Lisa Loeb got married, and I feel I wanna die,
Please excuse me while I stop here, I've got something in my eye.
