One For the Lads

My days are numbered now, Since I married the greedy sow. She thought it was funny, Spending all of my money, I'm back where I started,some how. She took me off to court, Fair trial,I hoped,I thought. But not on your nelly, It's not like the telly. She's taken everything I bought. Everything will work out just fine, Leaving a CD, thinking it was mine. She's taken the deep freeze, Even my pound block of fresh cheese, I'm sure what she's doing is a crime. At least we're on speaking terms, My new flat is clean, without germs. But I got the last laugh. Fresh water,in a clean bath, And get to keep all the money I earn.
