Rude
Scott Bradlee & Postmodern Jukebox feat. Von Smith Lyrics

Woke up this morning jumped out of bed
I was excited to see you and couldn't wait for this moment so I woke up early.

And put on my best suit
I made sure that I looked nice for you.

Got in my car and raced like a jet
I drove as quickly as I could to get to you.

All the way to you
I came all this way just to see you.

Knocked on your door with heart in my hand
I approached your door with a lot of emotion and feeling.

To ask you a question
I have an important question that I want to ask you.

'Cause I know that you're an old-fashioned man, yeah
I know you have traditional values and beliefs.

Can I have your daughter for the rest of my life?
May I have the honour of spending the rest of my life with your daughter?

Say yes, say yes 'cause I need to know
Please say yes because I need to know your answer.

You say I'll never get your blessing 'til the day I die
You've made it clear that you'll never approve of me, even if it's forever.

Tough luck, my friend, but the answer is 'No'
Sorry, but regardless of how nice I am to you, the answer is still no.

Why you gotta be so rude?
Why do you have to be so disrespectful and unkind?

Don't you know I'm human too?
Please try to understand that I have feelings and I'm trying to do what's best for me.

I'm gonna marry her anyway
I'm going to spend the rest of my life with her no matter what you say.

Marry that girl
I want to be with her forever.

Yeah, no matter what you say
Your opinion doesn't matter to me.

And we'll be a family
We'll start our own family together.

I hate to do this, you leave no choice
I don't want to do this, but you've given me no other option.

Can't live without her
I can't imagine my life without her in it.

Love me or hate me we will be both
Regardless of how you feel about me, we'll still be together.

Standing at that altar
We'll be standing at the altar getting married.

Or we will run away
If we have to, we'll run away to be together.

To another galaxy, you know
We'll go as far as we need to go to be together.

You know she's in love with me
She loves me and wants me in her life.

She will go anywhere I go
She'll follow me no matter where I go.

'No' still means 'No'!
Your answer is still no, regardless of how many times I ask.
