it's kind of funny
how life goes some times
i remember when we were young
we all agreed to be groomsmen at each other's weddings
even though we all thought girl's were stupid
(but we wanted to marry each other's moms
or the spice girl's, whichever group said yes first)
we argued over who would be who's best man
until we finally decided that we wouldn't have a best man
so we wouldn't have to pick favorites
and we always said seth would get married first
or oliver or even michael
but look who's actually getting married first?
(ha! we all thought i would never get married
because i wanted to be an astronaut
and i didn't want to bother with girls)
and look, i have a best man
but that's because michael is the only one left
two weeks i'll be standing at an alter
scared out of my mind
and you two won't be there standing to my right
supporting me
but i'll be you'll be watching
from wherever you are
(seth, i hope you're not as jealous
as you'd said you'd be
and i hope you don't mind
that i stole the girl you were in love with
and oliver, i bet you'd like her
i bet you'd tease her a lot
so i'd bet she'd like you
and i'd bet you'd want to hook up with her friends
because you were an idiot)
i hope you two would have approved of her
i miss you guys
