LYRICS:
SUSAN
How I love you.
How insanely much I must love you.

The swatches and menus and fonts.
The juggling what ev’ryone wants.
The debating choices
While the grating voices
With the free advice and the free advice and the free advice drone and drone.
Til I’m scared to pick up the phone.
Nick, I love you like no other
But I’m going to kill your mother
Just as soon as I’ve killed my own.

The flowers and candles and cake.
Decisions I just want to make
But I choke on choosing
‘Cause it’s so confusing
And the dumb advice and the dumb advice and the dumb advice booms and booms.
And September the second looms.

Then the crises
And the messes
With the prices
Of the dresses
And the aftermath
Of the bridesmaids’ wrath…
Nicky, you’re marrying a psychopath.
A psychopath!

How you love me.

NICKY
How you love me.

BOTH
How insanely much you must love me.

NICKY
Susan, hush.
Susan, stop.
Find me a smile.

Susan, shush.
Susan, breathe.
My love, you and I’ll
Get through this.
We’re not the first couple to do this.

SUSAN
But the wedding, the tents… and the house.
And my ring. Where’s my ring, you big louse?!
Oh, my brain is baking
Yes the strain is making
Me a psychopath. I’m a psychopath and a psychopath.
Please, oh, please
Put me out of my miseries.

NICKY
How I love you

SUSAN
So much to do…

NICKY
Do I get to marry you?

SUSAN
What?

NICKY
Do I get to marry you?

SUSAN
Yeah.

NICKY
Then nothing else matters.
Nothing else matters
Nothing else matters…

SUSAN
Nothing else matters
Nothing else matters

BOTH
Nothing else matters
Nothing else matters – it’s true
But how insanely much I must love you.
