matrimonal enemy (Lyric) by hendrimike
you just keep on pushing me backwards and forwards thru time
and i can't keep on livin' with anger for what is not mine
turning me around again and again to come home
and i can't keep from crying and slamming down the phone
i just keep on pushing you backwards and forwards thru time
and you couldn't keep livin' with anger for what's not yours
turning me around again and again to come home
and you hold the reciever and break down again on the phone
put a nickel in the machine my girl
spin the wheel to see what you win
it's a lifetime with me
your matrimonal enemy
the burning smell of smoke in the bar
the kids are gone sleeping off the day
and i came here to drink it away
she calls the bar for me to say
can't you come home?
won't you come home?
put a nickel in the machine my girl
spin the wheel to see what you win
it's a lifetime with me
your matrimonal enemy
and in the night, when it finally ends
stumble home to the mess that i'm in
you're waiting there with the kids in your hands
you are leaving me in our beat up minivan
off into darkness you drove away
and i sat in the kitchen and waited for day
you never came home or called again
this was our life and this is how it ends
put a nickel in the machine my girl
spin the wheel to see what you win
it's a lifetime with me
your matrimonal enemy
