Ten years out of high school, still no idea what to do You took him home from a nightclub, he took a nightclub to you Now I watch from the window, too guilty to scream My feet are like steel, I might be in a dream Well, every time I see you, you look bigger than you did the day before And even though I know it's not my fault, I wish it was I can only ride the elevator all night long from floor to floor And I can only stand outside your window in the dust So how about a shotgun wedding? What about your dignity? What about a different setting? What about me? All your daddy's wishes honored, all of that security How about a shotgun wedding? What about me? I guess I'm a loner, some call me a freak I saw you in the hallway, too guilty to speak Now I sleep in the daytime and I sleep on the floor I dial your number and I knock on your door But every time I hear your voice or footsteps, I get frozen in my place And I have to struggle for the courage just to run I can see the eyes of all the ones that left you glowing in your face And I just wanna help you with this life that you've begun So how about a shotgun wedding? What about your dignity? What about a different setting? What about me? All your daddy's wishes honored, all of that security What about a shotgun wedding? What about me? What about a shotgun wedding? What about me?
