Everything they told you
It turns out they were right
But you didn't listen to them
It turns out they were right
They said you'd never make it
Well, it turns out they were right
If you'd only listened to them
They still would have been right
But you could be so happy together
You would still be together, you see
You were meant to be without meaning to be
But they had to say they told you so
You never would be happy
Every conversation
Are they talking about you?
Find out what your problem is
What are you going to do?
Ask your Doctor Doctor Doctor
Say, "Doctor, Tell me true"
But I think you've got a bad case
A case of loving you
You could be so happy together
You would still be together, you see
You were meant to be without meaning to be
But they had to say they told you so
You never would be happy
Maybe they're your Mother
Maybe they're your Father too
They might be God in Heaven
To put you on the twelve difficult steps down the road of regret
Where you'll never even get to say, "Are we there yet?"
Oh, you could be so happy together
You would still be together, you see
It was love evermore, but it's not anymore
'Cause they had to say they told you so
You never would be happy
Oh, you could be so happy together
You would still be together, you see
You were meant to be without meaning to be
But they had to say they told you so
You never would be happy
