Lyrics
Pulled up in his car he was early, he was dressed sharp
Looked like every other boy I'd fallen for so far
There was nothing wrong, he might've fit the mold
If she hadn't come along, I'd still be on my toes
We were on a double date, looking at her face
Every move she makes, oh, my God, and I really, really like that
Being on her own, smelling her cologne
You were on the phone, and I know that you really, really hate that
We were getting on, you were getting all insecure, and I'm sorry
Everything she said made me second guess is it her instead
'Cause I think that I like her
Now, this has never happened to me before
Where I ditched a guy for the girl next door
She leans in to kiss me, I can't say no
We go round and round on the merry-go
Yeah, and Mary's supposed to be mine
Supposed to be mine
Pulled up in her car, she was 30 minutes late, but
Something 'bout the way that she never seems to try hard
Doesn't fit the mold, but normal's getting old
I'm glad she came along
I can't get off my toes
We were on a double date, he was in the way
She should never change anything 'cause I really, really like that
Put the record on, just another song
And now we know that I like her
Now, this has never happened to me before
Where I ditched a guy for the girl next door
She leans in to kiss me, I can't say no
We go round and round on the merry-go
Yeah, and Mary's supposed to be mine
Supposed to be mine
Look at Mary, you can't blame me
She makes my whole world go crazy
Everybody wants to be me
Everybody wants a Mary
Now, this has never happened to me before
Where I ditched a guy for the girl next door
She leans in to kiss me, I can't say no
We go round and round on the merry-go (the merry-go)
Now, this has never happened to me before
Where I ditched a guy for the girl next door
She leans in to kiss me, I can't say no
We go round and round on the merry-go
Yeah, and Mary's supposed to be mine
Look at Mary, you can't blame me
She makes my whole world go crazy
Everybody wants to be me
Everybody wants a Mary
