No Country For Old Men In Love
After being together for years in this marriage
The same old routine seems to be wearing thin
Something was needed to spark up the flame
I would fall victim to thoughts of mistrust
When your love life shows signs of rust
I was trying to find out the answer
But my jealous mind went in a new direction
I started wondering who was getting her attention
It was the internet that I began to explore
Was she interested in someone else I pondered?
She’s always talking and getting lots of texts on her cell
A fancy I-phone that I can’t figure out
I still have a flip phone that I carry about
Could an ex lover be the reason?
On Facebook there is always a friend search
That damn website feels like a curse
My jealous instincts have me searching her purse
What do I do if something seems out of place?
Do I confront her face to face?
If I get caught spying on her actions
I will blame insanity during my confession
This experience has taught me a new lesson
Maybe I can choose a new profession
I always liked watching The Rockford Files
All I need is a Firebird and a trailer near the beach
I got the damn trailer ...what a peach
She took my money with nary a sigh
Her attorney was one creepy dude
His hair was died black like Jerry Lewis
I had no help and they asked for more money
A biased Judge just emptied my wallet
Lies were told to insure her decision
I never got any Judge to even listen
I made every mistake that a man can make
I was fighting a hopeless battle
Then I developed a skin infection
which has required 4 hospital visits
Now I have a daily decision
Do I pull my plug and end the pain
I don't have the guts to complete that mission
Nobody cares and I feel so ashamed
I should of never took her for granted
Some asshole altered my plans for the future
He took away someone I really cared for
Does anyone wonder what Karma has in store?
Silence really can make me crazy
Four years and not one family member has shown any love
They seem to have forgotten I even exist.
