I'll Never Tell
ANYA
This is the man that I plan to entangle
Isn't he fine?
My claim to fame was to maim and to mangle
Vengeance was mine!
But I'm out of that biz
The name I made, I'll trade for his
The only trouble is - -
I'll never tell.
XANDER
She is the one
She's such wonderful fun
Such passion and grace
Warm in the night when I'm right in her tight - -
Embrace! Tight embrace!
I'll never let her go
The love we've known can only grow
There's just one thing that - -
No. I'll never tell.
ANYA AND XANDER
Cause there's nothing to tell.
ANYA
He snores
XANDER
She wheezes
ANYA
Say "housework" and he freezes
XANDER
She eats these skeazy cheeses that I can't describe
ANYA
I talk; he breezes
XANDER
She doesn't know what pleases
ANYA
His penis got diseases from a Chumash tribe!
ANYA AND XANDER
The vibe gets kind of scary
XANDER
Like she thinks I'm ordinary
ANYA
Like it's all just temporary
XANDER
Like her toes are kind of hairy
ANYA AND XANDER
But it's all very well
Cause, God knows, I'll never tell!
ANYA
When things get rough, he
Just hides behind his Buffy!
Now look, he's getting huffy
Cause he knows that I know.
XANDER
She clings
She's needy
She's also really greedy
She nev - -
ANYA
His eyes are beady!
XANDER
This is my verse, hello?
She - -
ANYA (Spoken)
Look at me! I'm dancing crazy!
ANYA AND XANDER
You know
XANDER
You're quite the charmer
ANYA
My knight in armor
XANDER
You're the cutest of the Scoobies
With your lips as red as rubies
And your firm, yet supple - -
Tight embrace!
ANYA
He's swell
XANDER
She's sweller
ANYA
He'll always be my feller
XANDER
That's why I'll never tell her that I'm petrified
ANYA
I've read this tale
There's wedding, then betrayal
I know there'll come the day I'll want to run and hide
ANYA AND XANDER
I've lied
I've said it's easy
I've tried
But there's these fears I've can't quell
XANDER
Is she looking for a pot of gold?
ANYA
Will I look good when I've gotten old?
XANDER
Will our lives become too stressful if I'm never that successful?
ANYA
Will I get so worn and wrinkly that I look like David Brinkley?
XANDER
Am I crazy?
ANYA
Am I dreamin'?
XANDER
Am I marrying a demon?
ANYA AND XANDER
We can really raise the beam in making marriage a hell...
So, thank God, I'll never tell!
I swear, that I'll never tell
XANDER
My lips are sealed
ANYA
I take the Fifth
XANDER
Nothing to see
Move it along
ANYA AND XANDER
I'll never - -
Tell!
