Tammy

I got married
Well, my, the woman who's my wife, Tammy
Who I've known since she was eight years old
She lived across the street from me
In this little town called Fairview
And I was in love with her, like
The first time I saw her
Which is quite a bloody thing
So that's worked out pretty well for me
But she came to live with me
About the same time and, you know
We decided jointly
To get our act together
And we swore that we'd tell each other the truth
I think she's actually done better than me

[Chorus]
And I don't think she's lied to me ever
In our entire marriage
Which is unbelievable
And I don't think she's lied to me ever
In our entire marriage
Which is unbelievable

Here's one memory
When I was in grade five
I got glasses
And I was pretty proud of these glasses
They were ordinary glasses, you know
And she came out onto the street
And she looked at my glasses
And I said, "What do you think of those"
And she says, "I think you look really funny in those"
And then she pointed at me and ran into her house
And it was, like, 20 years later
That she finally told me
That she had always wanted to have glasses
And she was jealous about it

[Chorus]
And I don't think she's lied to me ever
In our entire marriage
Which is unbelievable
And I don't think she's lied to me ever
In our entire marriage
Which is unbelievable

It's been so useful
Because I can really tell her things
And we can really talk
So, I tell you
If you want to have a good relationship, man
You embed it in the truth
Because if you don't embed it in the truth
You don't have a relationship
It's just lies
It's a tissue of lies
And it will, it will dissolve into chaos
As soon as a crisis comes along
So the truth is a terrible thing
But not compared to falsehood

[Chorus]
And I don't think she's lied to me ever
In our entire marriage
Which is unbelievable
And I don't think she's lied to me ever
In our entire marriage
Which is unbelievable

[Chorus]
And I don't think she's lied to me ever
In our entire marriage
Which is unbelievable
And I don't think she's lied to me ever
In our entire marriage
Which is unbelievable

And I told my dad when I was in grade five
I was sitting with her
On this big armchair
In our living room
And she was sitting beside me
On the armchair
Which I was pretty damn thrilled about
And she was being chased around
By all the boys in the school at that point
She was very hot, uh, property
And so, I was pretty happy to have her sit by me
And so, she left
And I told my dad
That I was gonna marry her
