Lyrics
On our first date We went to that play By Michael Frayd On Valentine’s day Then we were young Soon we’ll be old And then we’ll be dead And then we’ll be ghosts So I’d like to make you a proposal I have a counter proposal I’ll be your pb If you’ll be my j Oh, as pb&j Let’s make lunch today You and I We’re partners in crime Like Bonnie and Clyde We’ll stand side by side We’re peas in a pod We’re bumps on a log We’re socks in a wad A covalent bond So I’d like to make you my proposal Well I have a counter proposal I’ll be your pb If you’ll be my j Oh, as pb&j Let’s make lunch today So I’d like to make you my proposal I have a counter proposal I’ll be your husband If you’ll be my wife Oh, as husband and wife Let’s make love tonight Let’s make love tonight

Songwriter Notes
our most co-written song to date.
Out Takes: I'll be your moon rock, you'll be my clover, and like moon rocks and clover, let's have nothing to do with each other I'll be your tissue, you'll be my cold and like tissue and cold, lets be miserable I'll be your XY, you'll be my XX and as XY and XX, let's have kids in the very distant future partners in crime like those enron guys
Comments
Ok, I can't believe I haven't commented on this one before, because it's totally my favorite. First of all, the lyrics are spectacular. The "list song" is really hard; the arc of it is the hardest part, but you do a great job of upping the ante on each of those lines in the second verse. The different keyboard parts are all nice additions to the mix, great sounds. The melody is lovely, and I find myself singing it all the time, verse, chorus, and prechorus alike. The retard and repeat at the end is the icing on the cake. I give it a 10.0. Gabemcelwain 09:22, 11 June 2008 (PDT)
