Lyrics

Archie, Marry Me

[Verse 1]

You've expressed explicitly your contempt for matrimony

You've student loans to pay and will not risk the alimony

We spend our days locked in a room, content inside a bubble

And in the nighttime, we go out and scour the streets for trouble

[Chorus]

Hey, hey, marry me, Archie

Hey, hey, marry me, Archie

[Verse 2]

During the summer, take me sailing out on the Atlantic

I won't set my sights on other seas, there is no need to panic

So, honey, take me by the hand and we can sign some papers

Forget the invitations, floral arrangements and bread makers

[Chorus]

Hey, hey, marry me, Archie

Hey, hey, marry me, Archie

[Bridge]

Too late to go out, too young to stay in

They're talking about us living in sin

[Chorus]

Hey, hey, marry me, Archie

Hey, hey, marry me, Archie

Hey, hey, marry me, Archie

Hey, hey, marry me, Archie
