Marry Me
Marina & the Diamonds Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We don't believe in breaking up
We do believe in making up
That's all we really have to know
To make it so, it's official

Yesterday is here and gone
Tomorrow's where we both belong
Today's the day to make that change
And rearrange your initials

Marry me now
Say that I do
Don't wait around
You know I'm gonna be true
I'll give you my life
It's all that I got
I love you, believe it or not

Got so much celebrate
So why do we even hesitate
We've got the time, let's make the date
'Cause ain't life great, together

Married's not an easy thing
But look at all the joy it brings
And you and me can't be afraid
'Cause each day's made to treasure

Marry me now
Say that I do
Don't wait around
You know I'm gonna be true
I'll give you my life
It's all that I got
I love you, believe it or not

Marry me now
Tell me I do
Don't wait around
You know I'm gonna be true
I'll give you my life
It's all that I got
I love you, believe it or not

Marry me now
Tell me I do
Don't wait around
I'm gonna be true
I'll give you my life
It's all that I got
I love you

Marry me now
Marry me now
Marry me now
Marry me now
Marry me now
Tell me I do
Don't wait around
Gonna be true
Give you my life




Ah baby I'll give it all to you
Mm mm mm

Primadonna girl, yeah
All I ever wanted was the world
I can't help that I need it all
The primadonna life, the rise and fall
You say that I'm kinda difficult
But it's always someone else's fault
Got you wrapped around my finger, babe
You can count on me to misbehave
Primadonna girl
Would you do anything for me?
Buy a big diamond ring for me?
Would you get down on your knees for me?
Pop that pretty question, right now baby
Beauty queen on a silver screen
Living life like I'm in a dream
I know I've got a big ego
I really don't know why it's such a big deal, though
And I'm sad to the core, core, core
(Yeah) Every day is a chore, chore, chore
(Wow) When you give, I want more, more, more
I wanna be adored
'Cause I'm a Primadonna girl, yeah
All I ever wanted was the world
I can't help that I need it all
The primadonna life, the rise and fall
You say that I'm kinda difficult
But it's always someone else's fault
Got you wrapped around my finger, babe
You can count on me to misbehave
Primadonna girl
Fill the void up with celluloid
Take a picture, I'm with the boys
Get what I want 'cause I ask for it
Not because I'm really that deserving of it
Living life like I'm in a play
In the limelight, I want to stay
I know I've got a big ego
I really don't know why it's such a big deal, though
Going up, going down, down, down
(Yeah) Anything for the crown, crown, crown
(Wow) When the lights dimming down, down, down
I spin around
'Cause I'm a Primadonna girl, yeah
All I ever wanted was the world
I can't help that I need it all
The primadonna life, the rise and fall
You say that I'm kinda difficult
But it's always someone else's fault
Got you wrapped around my finger, babe
You can count on me to misbehave
Primadonna girl, yeah
All I ever wanted was the world
I can't help that I need it all
The primadonna life, the rise and fall
You say that I'm kinda difficult
But it's always someone else's fault
Got you wrapped around my finger, babe
You can count on me to misbehave
Primadonna girl
