I Now Pronounce You Man & Wife? Poem by Gordon David

Look at all these bills still to be paid, are you listening to me
(You’re in my way woman, I’m trying to watch sport on TV)
I need a bit more help from you, you do nothing around here
(I do plenty, Oh that’s it, I’m off to the pub for a pint of beer)
So that’s it, off you go, drown your never-ending imaginary sorrows
The bills won’t go away, they’ll still be waiting here tomorrow
(Nag, nag, nag, from morning ‘til night that’s all you ever do)
(Alright, I’ll have a look at the bills, if you really want me to)
I just want you to take an interest, you know a problem shared
I can’t do it all on my own, work, home, kids, duties that you're spared
(I know, but when I get in from work I just feel so tired these days)
How do you think I feel then? Running around in a constant daze
(So it’s all my fault then is it? I’m sorry, but that’s just me)
(I’m the same man you married, I’ve not changed my personality)
OH MY GOD, you haven’t changed? I don’t believe I’m hearing this
We used to make love nearly every day, now I don’t even get a kiss
(Is that what this is all about? Let’s go upstairs and do it now then)
No it’s not what this is all about, why do I have to explain myself again
You never listen, you never talk, you never take me out with you anymore
You never do anything about the house, you sit there in your chair and snore
The grass needs cutting, the windows need washed, the car needs cleaning
(Oh write up a list for me, I’ll go through it, if that’s what you're meaning)
Don’t use your sarcasm on me, things are bad, in fact they’ve never been worse
This is it then? Life’s hard, life’s tough, all I want from you is a DIVORCE
