What's Wrong with You?

Copyright © 2011 Kelli Caldwell

ROUGH A CAPPELLA VERSION!


Texte alternatif



Twenty-nine years and counting, yeah
Is there a ticker-tape across my chest?
That says I’m up for sale
If you’re an eligible male
Better hurry
Guess there’s not much left

Cause yesterday
I heard my mother say...

 

Chorus:
What’s wrong with you, you’re not married to
A nice man with a white-picket pocket?
What’s wrong with you, you’re not going through
Withdrawals——no date tonight?
Oh man, are you alright?
What’s wrong with you?
What’s wrong with you?
What’s wrong with you—and why?

 

32 years and drying up
I need a therapist to check my head
Yeah, something must be loose
I’m still a wandering goose
If I don’t mate
I might as well be dead

See yesterday
I had some lady say...

Chorus:
What’s wrong with you, you’re not married to
A nice man with a white-picket pocket?
What’s wrong with you, you’re not going through
Withdrawals——no date tonight?
Oh man, are you alright?
What’s wrong with you?
What’s wrong with you?
What’s wrong with you—and why?

 

35 years and still no ring
Can you believe I even show my face
Something’s gotta give
When in this age we live
Another woman’s
Calling that/me a disgrace

There ain’t no way
You’ll ever hear me say…

 

Chorus:
What’s wrong with you, you’re not married to
A nice man with a white-picket pocket?
What’s wrong with you, you’re not going through
Withdrawals——no date tonight?
Oh man, are you alright?
What’s wrong with you?
What’s wrong with you?
What’s wrong with you—and why?

 

Lyric notes: I can't believe how many women made derogatory comments, starting in my mid-twenties, about me not being married "yet" or asked "what's wrong with you?", like it's a disease to be an unmarried woman... I wouldn't like to hear it from a man either, but I never did... just from other women. In this day and age? Are you F-ing kidding me, lady?!
