[Verse 1] The book of love is long and boring No one can lift the damn thing It's full of charts and facts and figures And instructions for dancing [Chorus] But I, I love it when you read to me And you, you can read me anything [Verse 2] The book of love has music in it In fact that's where music comes from Some of it is just transcendental Some of it is just fu*king dumb [Chorus] But I, I love it when you sing to me And you, you can sing me anything [Verse 3] The book of love is long and boring And written some time ago It's full of hearts and flower-shaped boxes And things we're way too adult to know [Chorus] But I, I love it when you give me things And you, you ought to give me wedding rings Weren't you supposed to give me something? I think you may have forgotten something Isn't this some kind of transaction or something? You were supposed to give me something
