I remember the day that harsh words were spoken
when you left me and our sons and my heart was broken
You were tempted away by another, much younger
her boobs were still pert and her legs much longer
Her skin, young and fresh with no trace of a line
Buts she's had no worry in her short lifetime
She wears skimpy skirts that are short and skintight
No orange peel thighs or the dread cellulite
There's no stretch marks to spoil her bikini line
Like bearing your sons has left on mine
She's new and exciting - enlivens your life
so different to me your boring old wife
But does she love you as I do, my dear?
Weill she understand your obsession with beer?
And welcome the visits from two lively boys
who mess up the house with their books and their toys?

Six weeks on and I'm stronger in mind
no whinging wifey will you find
Stay with your floosie I don't care what you do
If you don't want me then I don't want you!
Round one is over - the battle is fought
Round two begins soon - see you in court
That's my next step, it's my only course
I've decided now that I want a divorce.

Six months on - oh for heaven's sake!
You've decided now that you've made a mistake?
You miss me and the boys and the life we had
and you'd like to come back to be husband and dad
So what do I do? Just say 'OK'
and welcome you back - what a happy day?
I'm sorry, no chance, I've made a new life
And that doesn't include me still being your wife!!
_____________________________________________________________________

I remember the day that I said I was leaving,
Saying bye to our sons, my emotions were heaving.
You pushed me away with abusive behaviour,
The ten years of rejection was much worse than I gave yer.
The woman I met last month's incidental,
But it's a relief just to find you're not all flipping mental.
The skirts and high heals are a little alarming,
But she likes me to touch her, and that's quite disarming.
I loved you much more than you ever gave credit,
But it came down to this before YOU finally said it.
She's new and exciting - it's a real novelty,
That someone can like such a "failure" as me.
It's not true that I'm leaving to get in her pants,
But it's nice, when I help her, she even says thanks!
I decided to leave months ago, can't you see?
When the boys said they hated you screaming at me.

Six weeks on and I'm homeless and poorer, but thinner,
My family tell me I'm on to a winner,
Your treatment of them made them sad, they agree,
But it didn't hurt them as much as your treatment of me.
- Stop talking about "HER"!, she has nothing to do
With those years of abuse that you put me through!
Now stop avoiding the question and answer me, please,
The boys, are they there? Won't you tell them it's me?

Six months on - it still hurts - I can't believe that you said
They couldn't come to the phone cos he'd put them to bed.
I didn't leave them! I left the life that we had!
At least let me know who they're calling their dad!
You've a right to be happy - my girl's helped me through -
It's good that this guy's done the same thing for you.
Oh well - just to say that the mortgage is square;
I'll call them tomorrow and just hope that they're there.
