Everybody who knows
Have I met your approval
Who will you pick out for me
Does she meet your approval

It doesn't matter what I think what I feel
I must do what I'm told
They want to replace my heart with one of steel
So I guess this will be another year on hold

Everybody who knows it all
Why do you punish me so
Surely you must have some flaw
How many stones will you throw

And here's something to think about more
As your perfection greets me at the door
Do the stones meet your approval
