Wife Lyrics

She gets what she wants, and I get what I get

Nobody alive seems to give a shit

They said they think I'm hit

I shot myself down; I'll admit

I sang you the tune, but that wasn't it

What does the stranger have to bring?

What happens after you've lived on a string?

How do you return an engagement ring?

My dear, don't you dare say a thing

"I want to get better," said the hypocrite

The pills don't work because I quit

There's some details I omit

A liar has eyes for the counterfeit

The mistress doesn't have to commit

What does the stranger have to bring?

What happens after you've lived on a string?

How do you return an engagement ring?

My dear, don't you dare say a thing
