Love is only 5'11
And a little overweight
For some He might be
All of the red flags alreadyHe's awkward and He's shy
His best friend is Stupidity
In the movie called Life
They take the front row seatsBehind them on a date
Sit Beauty and Grace
Cuddling and giggling
With Status and FaithAs the movie flows
The highs and the lows
We soon see a bride
All dressed in whiteSo the children come
And go again
The story reaching
It's very endLove sat crying
Hugging StupidityThe only ones left
In the empty room
Everybody else left
Halfway through
