[WIFE]
We've been married for ten years
Eight were fine; and six were not
It seemed longer than ten years
What I recall is better forgot
The first two were the best years:
When the kid was born
When the word seemed okay
But I
I felt him slipping away
I felt him die in my arms
His charms
Were not for me
How could I ever compete?
The cause of all his lust-
She must
Be sweet...
...And maybe too old
She might have a limp
Or she might have
Acne, or polio, or something
If the lady's just an a**-
Say she dotes on cops and g-men-
Let's suppose she's lower cla**-
How'd he choose her over me then?
(spoken)
He used to love me
He used to love me
He used to love me
[GOLDBERG, spoken]
Ah, don't be pathetic
[SWEETHEART, spoken]
She's so pathetic
[WIFE]
Is it hard to deceive me?
No, just bring a note from home
He could just as well leave me;
When he's with us
He's somewhere alone
[GOLDBERG and SWEETHEART]
You'll be fine...
[WIFE]
I'll be fine if he leaves me
But, I'm sure he won't
Trouble is we don't say
But I...
[LADIES]
I felt him slipping away
I felt him die in my arms
His charms
Were not for me
No. No. No. No. No
How
Could I ever compete?
The cause of all his lust?
She must
Be sweet
[WIFE]
The b**h might be dumb
She might think he's Kris Kringle
And honest
And single
[SWEETHEART and GOLDBERG]
He will not admit the truth
[WIFE]
He thinks I might like surprise
[SWEETHEART and GOLDBERG]
Why are men so damn uncouth?
[WIFE]
Oh...
[ALL]
All they every tell are lies!
[WIFE]
I feel him slipping away
I feel him dead in my arms
His charms
Are not for me
How
Can I ever compete?
The cause of all his lust
She must
Be sweet...
(spoken)
Liar!!!
