(paul foglino)
He ain't handsome, he ain't witty, he ain't cute
Lives in his mother's house, wears a brown suit
He works, gets paid twice a month
Tells his friends, yeah, I had a girlfriend, once
Doesn't do too much, he just kind of hangs around
Couldn't fall in love until it came and knocked him
down
She's got sisters, they make her cry
Mom says, you get your looks from your father's side
You're a very pretty girl her daddy swears
She's got a mole on her left cheek with three black
hairs
Bought a beat up ford with what she'd saved for a wedding
gown
Couldn't fall in love until it came and knocked her
down
They meet at a place, a place where people meet
Life ain't all that bad he says, and she says, I agree
It's a fairy tale for a dragon and a witch
They're perfect for each other, she ain't pretty he ain't
rich
They're a little bit surprised by what they've found
Couldn't fall in love until it came and knocked them
down
A pretty girl with coal black hair
Takes her handsome beau to a family affair
He kisses mama's right cheek and he gives daddy's hand a
shake
Thinks to himself, this must be some mistake
He's just seen it come and go and come and go around
Couldn't fall in love until it came and knocked him
down
