Pulled up in his car. He was early. He was dressed sharp. Looked like every other boy
I'd fallen for so far. There was nothing wrong
He might have fit the mold. If she hadn't come along, I'd still be on my toes
We were on a double date, looking at her face. Every move she makes, oh my god
And I really really like that. Being on our own, smiling, look along. You were on the phone
And I know that you really really hate that. We were getting on, you were getting all insecure and I'm sorry
Everything she said made me second-guess his own step
Cause I think that I like her
Now this has never happened to me before
Where I ditch the guy for the girl next door
She leans in to kiss me
I can't say no
We go round and round
On the merry-go-round
Yeah, and Mary's supposed to be mine
She's supposed to be mine
She's supposed to be mine
She's supposed to be mine
She's supposed to be mine
She's supposed to be mine
Pulled up in a car
She was 30 minutes late
But something about the way
That she never seems to try hard
Doesn't fit the mold
But normal's getting old
I'm glad she came along
I can't get off my toes
We were on a double date, he was in the way
She should never change anything, cause I really really like that
With the record on, she's singing all the songs
And now I know, that I like her
Now this has never happened to me before
Where I ditch the guy for the girl next door
She leans in to kiss me
I can't say no
We go round and round
On the merry-go-round
Yeah, and Mary's supposed to be mine
She's supposed to be mine
She's supposed to be mine
She's supposed to be mine
She's supposed to be mine
She's supposed to be mine
Look at Mary, you can't blame me
She makes my whole world go crazy
She's supposed to be mine
She makes my whole world go crazy
Everybody wants to be me
Everybody wants a Mary
This has never happened to me before
Where I ditch the guy for the girl next door
She leans in to kiss me
I can't say no
We go round and round
On the merry-go-round
No this has never happened to me before
Where I ditch the guy for the girl next door
She leans in to kiss me
I can't say no
We go round and round
On the merry-go-round
Yeah and Mary's supposed to be my Mary
Oh look out Mary
You can't blame me
She makes my whole world go crazy
Everybody wants to be me
Everybody wants a Mary
This has never happened to me before
Where I ditch the guy for the girl next door
She leans in to kiss me
I can't say no
We go round and round
On the merry-go-round
Yeah and Mary's supposed to be my Mary
Everybody wants a Mary
