His friends would say stop whining, they've had enough of that
His friends would say stop pining, there's other girls to look at
They've tried to set him up with Tiffany and Indigo
But there's Something about Mary that they don't know
Mary
There's Just Something About Mary
Well his friends say, look, Life's no fairy tale
That he should have some fun, he's suffered long enough
Well they may know about domestic and imported ale,
But they don't a thing about love
Well his friends would say he's dreaming and living in the past
But they've never fallen in love, so his friends need not be asked
His friends would say be reasonable, his friends would say let go
But there's something about Mary that they don't know
Mary
There's Just Something About Mary
Look closely at this picture
Ted and Mary like before
Can you see her as Ted see's her?
And why he couldn't wait no more
And if you still think he's being silly
Then you still got more to see
Cause this just isn't a date folks, this is chemistry
And Mary, well there's just somethin about Mary

Sure she's a pretty girl but don't make this so complex"
They may have read a Playboy magazine
So now they're experts on sex

They learn this from the swimsuit issue of Sports Illustrated

His friends would say "you're free"

But they don't know a thing about love
I don't want you to be too cool

Because they wanted to sing along
And they were afraid to that no one else was going to think that they were cool
If you feel like singing along don't you dare chicken out
