Husband/Thief/Medium
A devil released
The Wife:
No more trying not to laugh as you struggle
To squeeze into your trousers as you slowly go bald.
No more listening to Danny Kaye albums
Or leaping to your voice
Or jumping when called.
No more sleeping through your boring foreign movies
What was it the last time?
Something Japanese.
No more sitting still
While you and all your lawyers drone on and on about taxi cab fees.
No more visiting your mother every Sunday
Choking down her pasta which she always over salts.
No more three A.M. jealous innuendos then begging my forgiveness and then pointing out my faults.
No more
No more
Dont look at me that way.
Your ears and your eyes got used to the lies
But youre getting the truth today.
No more forcing me to wear the crap you buy me.
Has anybody told you
You have rotten taste in clothes?
No more forcing me to do and not question.
Why I took it this long,
Christ only knows.
No more forcing me to give up what I wanted.
Sure, I liked your money
But you never bought my soul.
No more forcing me to put up with your patronizing
Hot-stick, King-Kong
Need to control.
No more forcing me to act like I enjoy it
When you suddenly remember that Im sharing your bed.
No more forcing me to lie and say Im sorry.
You wanna blame me, baby
Well then, you go right ahead.
No more.
No more.
Dont look at me that way.
Youre not alive.
Were not alive.
You and I died today.
No, no more.
No more.
No more!
No more!
