WHY SHOULD I MARRY?
written by Richard Johnson

Why should I marry
When there are bridges, high windows, and rooftops to jump from?
Why should I marry?
When I can drive my car off a cliff?
Don't they have poison and shotguns and hangmen
Too glad to have something to do?
Why should I marry?
I'd rather die quickly than slowly, my dear, with you.

Why should I marry?
Life is hard enough as it is.
Why should I marry?
To be free as a bird in a cage.
I work hard already so why should I feed you, too?
Why should I marry?
I'd rather die quickly than slowly, my dear, with you.
