While everyone I know
. is gettin’ married
. or havin’ kids
I’m startin’ over
I lost my baby, my lady
. lover best friend
. significant other
just when I was
. comin’ close to
. settlin’ slowin’ down
. closin’ up shop
I realized I was makin’ a big mistake—
(well what other kind would be worth mentionin’?!)
. what I needed was
. ` another lover a new best friend
and if she’da been my significant other
what would that’a made me: insignificant?
The way I figure it
. I deserve better deserve a lady
. ain’t gettin’ stuck with no baby
and sure ain’t settlin’ for someone crazy! no sir-ee.
it’s my life we’re talkin’
. which is short already
. least that’s what they say
but they say a lot, don’t they?
they say I’ve already lived mine half way—
. (yep, God’s sure got a god-
. damn twisted sense’a humor,
. don’t he?)
