And now That she's older In the embers of romance Pay two mortgages and leccy bills Been comfortable and that Nobody told her That she'd ever reach the stage Where her husband bores or her Or she lies about her age
He's compromising At least he's got a job for life Get born, get school, get job, get car Pay tax and find a wife And on that note The end can't come too soon If you're not living on the edge You take up too much room
