This song needs no description since it was played for years as the theme to “Married… with Children.” This engendered an interesting argument between Nichole and I. She avers that this song is ironic, sung by the 50s equivalent of a playa. I responded that Frank Sinatra was never ironic. The song offers no clues. If it is a send up of the institution of marriage, it’s dead-on. Everyone says you have to get married; everyone believes marriage is a wonderful thing. Is this song lampooning or merely descriptive? What does Ol’ Blue Eyes think? Who can say?
I am mentally giving you the finger. Just so you know.
