The Lyrics

melinda was mine
till the time
that i found her
eyeing rings
high-priced things

then sue came along
argued strong
but was i caught ?
not by sue
i dumped her too

don't feel unfulfilled
feelings killed
when they're whiny
i'll toss away
if they stay on my hiney

i'll be what i am
a hard-to-marry man
hard-to-marry man

i guess i'll steer clear
and stay here
loving all girls
part-time flings
with no rings

i hear its no fun
with just one
girls will bug you
all day long
i'll stay strong

so run of the mill
routine drills
when its binding
and wedding days
bring dismay
you'll be finding

i'll be what i am
a hard-to-marry man
hard-to-marry man
hard-to-marry man

Diamond is the hardest known substance, and some may find him hard to listen to, but this parody was a fun and easy read.

Diamonds are annealed by great forces of pressure. This parody puts great forces of pressure on my funny bone.

Let me guess: She ate her peas one at a time? Or did she have man-hands? Or insufficient depravity? Did she not let you play with her toys?

The freedom that comes with being unwed is always a good topic for parodies, but I'm committed to giving you three 5's for a job well done...

To be able to have sex for twenty minutes, you have to support a kid for eighteen years. I say that if you support a kid for twenty minutes, you should be able to have sex for eighteen years. 555
