  Girl
  Tell me thatchya single
  Cuz we don't have the time
  Girl
  You're shining like a diamond
  And I know how to mine
  Moment's right
  Aw yah
  Feeling right
  Aw yah
  The time is right
  Aw yah
  Tonight's the night
  Woo!
  I'm gonna
  marry you
  On the dance floor
  Dance your life away with me
  I'm gonna marry you
  On the dance floor
  Don't leave me groovin on one knee
  Just say "I do"
  Baybay
  I know you've got some questions
  But you can rest your mind
  The bouncer is a pastor
  Look I
  planned ahead of time
  I see you're here with family
  And I brought all of mine
  Moment's right
  Aw yah
  Feeling right
  Aw yah
  The time is right
  Aw yah
  Tonight's the night
  I'm gonna marry you
  On the dance floor
  Dance your life away with me
  I'm gonna m
  arry you
  On the dance floor
  Don't leave me groovin on one knee
  Just say "I do"
  We can start start this honeymoon out in the restroom
  Let's start this family right
  Hey, what's your name?
  Wait whats your name
  ...

**Christofi & FEiN** collaboration (Walton/Woodward co-write with **Christofi**). [SoundCloud](https://soundcloud.com/christofi/christofi-fein-marry-you-on-the-dance-floor). **[Brian Robert Jones](/with/brian-robert-jones/)**, bass — same Tiny Giant session player as [*Little Homes*](/albums/little-homes-fein/) and [Fresh Fruit](/songs/fresh-fruit/). Public [Facebook session video (audio)](https://fb.watch/HHqNjxvaOl/) documents Brian tracking the bass part. Not on [*Little Homes*](/albums/little-homes-fein/); a FEiN **collab** slot alongside [*Boomerang*](/songs/boomerang/) and [*Out of My Mind*](/songs/out-of-my-mind/).

**Mexico Viral 50:** Indexed **May 21, 2016** FEiN Facebook post (archivist proof: [/evidence/fein-marry-you-mexico-viral-50.png](/evidence/fein-marry-you-mexico-viral-50.png)): *We passed Justin Timberlake and are now #2 on the Spotify Mexico Viral Charts! Christofi woooo!!* Screenshot shows **Christofi, FEiN — Marry You on the Dance Floor** at **#2** on Spotify's **Mexico Viral 50**, ahead of Justin Timberlake's *CAN'T STOP THE FEELING!* (#4) and Drake's *One Dance* (#10). Aligns with [ReverbNation Blog](https://web.archive.org/web/20220628192349/https://blog.reverbnation.com/2017/01/27/spotify-playlists-dragon-ball-z-and-collabs-an-interview-with-fein/) (**Jan 2017**) citing FEiN near the top of Spotify Viral 50 **US, Canada, and Mexico** — here the Mexico slot is this Christofi collab, not [*#Grownupz*](/songs/grownupz/).

A club-comedy marriage sprint: instant courtship (*you're shining like a diamond / and I know how to mine*) that outsources the sacrament to nightlife staff. *The bouncer is a pastor*, both families conveniently in attendance, the whole institution improvised between songs.

The joke is in how fast the romance collapses into farce. The honeymoon gets relocated to the restroom, and the punchline lands when the groom realizes he never caught the bride's name: *hey, what's your name? / wait whats your name*. Pairs with [*Roadtrip*](/songs/roadtrip/) (*genuflecting knee*) and [*Lonely People*](/songs/lonely-people/) (marriage as extraction), FEiN's institution satire in party clothes.
