Lyrics

I like taxis, I like trains
 I like Brooklyn when it rains
 But I love Betsy
 I like walking after dark
 I like jogs in Prospect Park
 But I love Betsy
 I like Shake Shack
 I like MoMA
 And New Jersey's ripe aroma
 The parades when I see 'em and even the DMV
 And the Brooklyn Bridge by bike
 Heck, there's lots of stuff I like
 But I love Betsy and she loves me
 She likes hockey, no, I swear
 She likes guys with thinning hair
 And I love Betsy (he loves Betsy)
 She likes pizza and Chinese
 Louboutins and mac'n'cheese
 God, I love Betsy (he loves Betsy)
 She likes swimming, writing letters
 She likes watching double-headers
 She drinks bourbon and sake
 And even likes Rocky III
 I'm amazed and I'm impressed
 But the thing that I like best is I love Betsy
 And she loves me
 Five years
 I've been in love with Betsy for five years
 I can't believe she stuck with me
 What kind of luck have I got
 To keep someone like her around?
 Ten years
 My mom's been dead already for ten years
 So since she put that curse on me-
 No, there's no curse, it's not a curse
 Forget I said curse
 The point is it's been long enough
 Now it's time to grow up, mom's in the ground
 And look what I've found
 I like dancing on the pier
 I like Broadway, once a year
 But I love Betsy
 I like visits to the zoo
 I like opera, that's not true
 But I love Betsy
 It's been five years and I'm ready
 Get the sparklers and confetti
 Give a wink to the waiter
 And summon the maître d'
 Just like Jay-Z and Beyoncé
 I will make her my fiancé
 I love Betsy
 (La, la, la, la, la, la, la)
 I love Betsy
 (La, la, la, la, la, la, la)
 I love Betsy
 And Betsy loves me
 I'm a schmuck and Betsy loves me
 Doesn't matter what I do
 I know it's true
 I could never live without her
 Betsy loves me
 It's amazing
 Betsy loves me
 And tonight, I'm gonna show her
 Just how proud I am to know her
 There's no danger, there's no drama
 There's no curse, and there's no mama
 Put my problems in the past (la, la, la, la, la, la)
 I'm a grown-up man at last (la, la, la, la, la, la)
 I'm the luckiest guy from the Bronx to the islands
 So laugh if you wanna
 This whole town is gonna see (see, see, see)
 That I love Betsy
 Sorry Mama
 I love Betsy
 And she loves me (la-la-la, la, la, la, la-la-la, la, la, la, la-la-la, la, la, la)
