Wives 1, 2 & 3 |
Wife #1, her confidence had gone |
The pounds had piled upon those deadly thighs |
As she sank into the sand and missed my outstretched hand |
I could not understand her final cries |
She did not feed me well |
She nagged me close to hell |
When faced with final bell |
Why the surprise? |
The women and their husbands |
They are chalk and they are cheese |
You cannot call it true love |
Until one of you’s on your knees |
The women and their husbands |
They are north and they are south |
Love just can’t survive unless |
You learn to hush your mouth |
Love just can’t survive unless |
You learn to hush your mouth… |
Wife #2, so loyal and so true |
'Til the wind on bridge-top blew, she was mine |
But when she hit that railway track, there was no going back |
I watched her poor head cracked by the 8:09 |
She did not love me right |
I caught her late at night |
Asking her friend’s advice |
Instead of mine |
Wife #3, she fell into the sea |
But I had to let her be, I could not swim |
As I stood there soaking wet, my only real regret |
Is I could not quite forget she slept with him |
Wife #4, he loves me to the core |
So I like to stay indoors and watch TV |
If he mentions going out, he puts finger to my mouth |
And reminds me of wives 1, 2, and 3… |
Three… |
