So, let me tell you about marriage now
Well, I says this and she says that
I say white, she says black
We're carrying on like a dog and a cat
cnd staying up half of the night
Well, you can pick your battles and you might even win
But one thing I've learned time and time again
Compromising ain't necessarily giving in
cnd I'd rather be happy than right!
She wants to paint the house, you better just go along
You'll get used to that color- Suck it up! Move on!
That opinion you have, yeah probably wrong
No need to get all uptight
Well, I'm either getting older or wiser or lazy
You can call me whipped, and yeah, well maybe
But I'm still a man and call me crazy
I'd rather be happy than right!
Well, you can't live without 'em, can't live with 'em
It's a mighty fragile ecosystem
It really ain't all that hard a decision
Just let them sleeping dogs lie
Well, happy wife, happy life
cnd if i wanna be happy later on tonight,
I think I'll let her think she's won the fight
Cuz I'd rather be happy than right
Well, the one thing I've learned bout this marriage thing
Is the key to success is in the editing
Before you say something stupid, stop and think
You may wanna zip it up tight
When it's all said and done, I really do love her
I Just bite my lip round her sister and her mother
I might be thinking one thing but I'll say another
Cuz I'd rather be happy than right
Well, you can't live without 'em, can't live with 'em
It's a mighty fragile ecosystem
It really ain't all that hard a decision
Just let them sleeping dogs lie
Well, happy wife, happy life.
cnd if i wanna be happy later on tonight
I think I'll let her think she's won the fight
Cuz I'd rather be happy than right
Well, sometimes I forget what we're fighting for
cnd you gotta lose some battles if you wanna win the war
