lyrics

MAKE YOUR BED A SINGLE

We were so happy for such a long time
So understanding so patient and kind
I get the feeling you don’t want me around
I get the feeling I’m dragging the ground

I saw you talking to some other man
A conversation I could not understand
Think I am tired of your cruel little games
I know it’s time for a change

Well I love you but you shut me out
You don’t even know what I’m crying about
Tried to tell you but you shut me down
Better make your bed a single ‘coz I won’t be found

You killed my goldfish while I was away
Water restrictions said you had to obey
Found my iguana down RSPCA
If I saw that ranger would he take you today
You cheat at scrabble and monopoly
And say my family don’t play properly
Start throwing glasses and cheap pottery
You know I cannot stand this no more

Well I love you but you shut me out
You don’t even know what I’m crying about
Tried to tell you but you shut me down
Better make your bed a single ‘coz I won’t be found

The marriage therapists are running a mile
Adult relationship is just not your style
I’m gonna leave you just one of these days
If you weren’t that lotto winner I would mean what I say

Well I love you but you shut me out
You don’t even know what I’m crying about
Tried to tell you but you shut me down
Better make your bed a single ‘coz I won’t be found
