As i sit here and listen to a wife who ruins my life...
On many an occasion i have heard her say that 'she wished she were dead'.
I on the other hand, wish that i was dead instead...
I wish that i never ever have to hear these nagging words'We can't get along'.
That would be a nice title of a 'song of break up of the heart'...
'We can't get along' song.
What a wonderful song...
'We can't get along'.
Now, is this fact, or is it wrong? ...
My wife and i fight like cats and dogs.
Same old, same old, silly love not silly of songs...
Not a day goes by that my heart seems to suffer with aches and breaks.
She is choking away my quest for life...
Why not, after all-She is my darling, giving, smart-assed wife.
