Lyrics:
We kept it light, delicious, and platonic.
The good times that we shared were quite invariable.
But then, one night, he prattled on, sardonic:
"I'm glad my friends like you," he said, "are so unmarriable."

(Unmarriable?!?  You think I'm un-marriable?)

Could it be I've yet to meet a guy
why meets my status quo?
With a chum, it's best to keep it short and sweet:
I let them come, and watch them go.
I won't say know to a pretty please,
but if pretty's pretty much all he's got,
then I'll play catch and release
without getting caught.

Maybe I've seen a sleazy time or two
how easy true loves cools.
Maybe I've got, like, way too much to do
to fool around with fools.
So maybe I'm the queen of "not yet,"
or maybe I've just never met my match!
Just because I ain't been caught yet, baby,
doesn't mean I'm not a catch!

I'm the cat's meow, a trophy cow,
a big blue ribbon prize.
My real estate, I'll freely state,
is prime.
And I'm not trying to analyze
why you're still among the single guys,
so who are you to criticize
if I take my sweet time?

Maybe it's all part of my master plan,
and maybe not.
Maybe I don't need a handsome man
to love the life I've got.
Oh, throw me every name in your dispatch,
but don't throw blame when I detach!
You've more than met your match,
you've missed your shot.

Just because I ain't been caught yet--
(Maybe someday, but sure as hell not yet!)
Cause I'll take nothing less than the best of the batch.
You clearly haven't been well taught yet.
This fire's still plenty hot yet!
Just because I ain't been caught yet, baby,
doesn't mean I'm not a catch!
