2006 Off-Broadway I Love You Because the Musical - That's What's Gonna Happen Lyrics
The song is written by Joshua Salzman and Ryan Cunningham.
JEFF The two of us, we’ll start off caring All about this life we’re sharing You and I We’ll be high Upon the fumes of luh-uh-ove You’ll laugh at my jokes We’ll be as sweet as two cherry cokes And that’s, that’s what’s gonna happen
DIANA Sounds wounderful
JEFF Then I’ll take you out to dinner All the while my wallets thinner And I’ll yell Where the hell Did all my money go-oh-oh But I’ll put off everything So I can save for a three-karat ring And that’s, that’s what’s gonna happen
DIANA I don’t care about stuff like that…
JEFF And I’ll be sure That’s what I’m for Cause you bring me a joy I can’t buy or sell But one night you’ll ask “Do you still love me? Cause sometimes I can’t quite tell!”
DIANA And how do you know?
JEFF So then I’m caught in this quandary Cause I touched your dirty laundry But that stuff Is not enough For you to know I care-air-air Inside I’ll blow like a bomb But outside, outside I’ll stay calm And that’s, that’s what’s gonna happen
DIANA Well, maybe if you opened up more…
AUSTEN AND MALE But then one fateful day
JEFF Thanks guys [?]
AUSTEN AND MALE He’ll try to walk away
JEFF That’s right
AUSTEN AND MALE Despite
JEFF My best givings
MALE Second thoughts
JEFF And fear-
JEFF, AUSTEN, MALE Ear-ears
AUSTEN AND MALE Then he’ll claim
JEFF It’s me not you
MALE Though we all know that that’s not true
(Diana giggles)
JEFF Then you’ll look at me and burst into tears To your
JEFF, AUSTEN, MALE Surprise
JEFF I’ll stop and listen Cause no guy Wants to make a girl cry
MALE [?] Boo-
AUSTEN [?] Hoo
JEFF But then you’ll cry every day I’ll pretend it’s a phase And then I'll freak out and end it
MALE Aw
JEFF Sadly that’s how this all ends You will go and tell all your friends
JEFF, AUSTEN, MALE I must be gay
JEFF To
JEFF, AUSTEN, MALE Walk away
JEFF From a perfect girl like you Now your friends all hate me too But I just did what all men do
AUSTEN AND MALE That’s true
JEFF And that’s, that’s what’s gonna happen
MALE It’ll fuck everything up.
JEFF Now I’m broke and feel betrayed
AUSTEN AND MALE And he’s not even getting laid
JEFF That sucks And that’s, that’s what’s gonna happen
AUSTEN [?] Come on Jeff. Bring us home.
JEFF I know our relationship’s illusive But, it is better than being exclusive
JEFF, AUSTEN, MALE And that’s, that’s what’s gonna happen Gonna happen, yeah
