I Love Betsy
I like taxis,
I like trains,
I like Brooklyn when it rains
But I love Betsy
I like walking after dark,
I like jogs in Prospect Park
But I love Betsy
I like Shake Shack,
I like MOMA,
And New Jersey's ripe aroma
The parade's when i see 'em and even the DMV
And the Brooklyn bridge by bike
Heck, there's lots of stuff I like
But I love Betsy and she loves me
She likes hockey, no I swear
She likes guys with thinning hair
And I love Betsy
She likes pizza and Chinese
Louboutin's and mac'n'cheese
God, I love Betsy
She likes swimming,
Writing letters
She likes watching double-headers
She drinks bourbon and sake
And even likes Rocky III
I'm amazed and I'm impressed
But the thing that I like best is I love Betsy
And she loves me
Five years
I've been in love with Betsy for five years
I can't believe she stuck with me
What kind of luck have I got?
To keep someone like her around
Ten years
My mom's been dead already for ten years
So since she put that curse on me-
No, there's no curse,
Its not a curse,
Forget I said curse,
The point is its been long enough,
Now it's time to grow up,
Mom's in the ground,
And look what I've found
I like dancing on the pier,
I like Broadway, once a year
But I love Betsy
I like visits to the zoo,
I like opera, that's not true
But I love Betsy
Its been five years and I'm ready,
Get the sparklers and confetti
Give a wink to the waiter
And summon the maître d,
Just like Jay-Z and Beyoncé,
I will make her my fiancé
I love Betsy
(La la la la la la la)
I love Betsy
(La la la la la la la)
I love Betsy
And Betsy loves me
I'm a schmuck and betsy loves me
Doesn't matter what I do,
I know its true
I could never live without her
Betsy loves me
Its amazing,
Betsy loves me
And tonight I'm gunna show her
Just how proud I am to know her
There's no danger,
There's no drama,
There's no curse,
And there's no Mama
Put my problems in the past
I'm a grown-up man at last
I'm the luckiest guy from the Bronx to the islands
So laugh if you wanna,
This whole town is gunna see,
That I love Betsy
Sorry Mama,
I love Betsy
And she loves me
