Joke About Divorce

It's a fine mess (It's a fine mess)
I got myself into (What have you got yourself into?)
I'm in a spin (He's in a spin)
With nowhere to spin to (Where's he gonna spin to?)

But I know I should think before I open my mouth
(Yeah, you should think before you talk)
And I know that some things shouldn't be said out loud
(So why'd you go and say it?)

I guess this argument's not the place for a joke about divorce
My intentions were just a playful thing
To make you laugh of course
I'm neither use nor ornament
I must wait
My affections you ignore
I guess this argument's not the place for a joke about divorce

My phone calls (Her phone's still ringing now)
You curse (Tom, what the fuck?)
I said I'll write you some verse (Write you some verse)
You said boy, you've some nerve! (You've got some nerve)

But I won't include verbiage I'm not sure about
(Who'd you think you are?)
Or use a refrain just to stretch the strain out
(So why'd you go and say it?)

I guess this argument's not the place for a joke about divorce
My intentions were just a playful thing
To make you laugh of course
I'm neither use nor ornament
I must wait

My affections you ignore
I guess this argument's not the place for a joke about divorce

For a grown man
I should know better
Now I'm staring out
The front room window
Haven't spoke for hours
Yeah, I regret it
And while I find the words suppose I'll just say

I guess this argument's not the place for a joke about divorce
My intentions were just a playful thing
To make you laugh of course
I'm neither use nor ornament
I must wait
My affections you ignore
I guess this argument's not the place for a joke about divorce
