Stupid Wedding Ring
By Kim Davidson
© 2010


I spot him in the mirror thats hung above the bar
Check my hair and check my teeth—which is stupid—cause I cant really see that far
My war-torn heart is weary, but theres something drawing me in
So I head on over and then I see it, his stupid wedding ring

CHORUS: Little circle of gold you stop my heart cold!
All the good ones are wearing you, so whats a single girl to do?
Little circle of gold no use in bettin—I fold!
You ruin everything stupid wedding ring!

But then the next day in the market, while cruisin the dairy aisle
I feel like someones watching me, so I turn around wearing my best smile
Theres a tall and handsome prospect, who looks ripe for the picking
I wave and he waves back—and there it is, his stupid wedding ring

CHORUS: Little circle of gold you stop my heart cold!
All the good ones are wearing you, so whats a single girl to do?
Little circle of gold no use in bettin—I fold!
You ruin everything stupid wedding ring!

BRIDGE: I wonder why I bother, it seems theres no one left
Unless I want to rob the cradle, or marry someone on the verge of death!

So I focus on my work life, my family and my friends
I figure Fate will step on in if the time is ever right before I meet my end
Then he finds me at a party, and my lonely heart goes Zing!
But as he shakes my hand, I feel it burnin, his stupid wedding ring!

CHORUS: Little circle of gold you stop my heart cold!
All the good ones are wearing you, so whats a single girl to do?
Little circle of gold no use in bettin—I fold!
You ruin everything stupid wedding ring!
You ruin everything stupid wedding ring!
