The D Word
(M. Barker)

Now you’re a fine looking woman about as fine as I’ve seen
But when you get angry you can be downright mean
Why must you be hostile, why must you be cruel?
Why must you always attack?
Could you cut me some slack?
I ain’t nobody’s fool

Chorus :

Before we got married I swear that it’s true
You never had shown me this side of you
I won’t use the D word, I know it’s a sin
This is as bad as it gets
We should just call it quits
And let the healing begin


Remember last evening when I came home from work
I called you my angel, you called me a jerk
Now that was uncalled for, that wasn’t nice
I guess I misunderstood
When I told you I would
Now I’m paying the price

2nd Chorus :

Now we’ve had three years of marital bliss
We’re neither one happy; I can’t go on like this
It might just be better if this were to end
I can’t deal with your fits
We should just call it quits
And let the healing begin
This is bad as it gets
We should just call it quits
And let the healing begin
