Think I'll Celebrate By Going Away Lyrics

I think I'll celebrate by going away

Twenty years together

And there's nothing left to say

You don't want me near you

The kids all act the same

I'm sick and tired of Hurting

I've failed and I leave in shame

So, I think I'll celebrate by going away

I'll no longer be bother

And you won't have me to blame

The bills I'll keep on paying

The lights will still come on

I won't be there to wake you

Or do the goddamned chores

I think I'll celebrate by going away

It's best that I just leave

There's nothing left to save

You've always got a headache

The kids don't do a thing

The cars they drive the food they eat

The cash for their new kicks

That's why I'll celebrate by going away

There's nothing here to hold me

I ain't nothing but a piggy bank

The only words I hear are rude

I get no damned respect

My needs all go unanswered

I'm just fodder for the ticks.

That's why I'll celebrate by going away

Y'all probably won't even notice

That I've left without a trace.

There's nothing here to celebrate

So, I'm finally going away

In fact, y'all might just celebrate

The day I went away.
