Marital Carnival

You come home, you look kind of frantic
Too bad, 'cause I feel romantic
I know you're stressed out again
Tonight I guess that we're just friends again

You know I'm really not the type to compete
I hope your meetings are filled with lots of good meat
And your appointments have lots of good ointments
To soothe what you I never could satisfy

'Cause I don't care like I did a minute ago
I tried to love you, but it was just too stressful though
It's like leaving your boots on when you go swimming And I never will fight for what doesn't want winning

You wake up, I'm doing cartwheels
You're grumpy, say, "Try seeing how I feel"
I have it just wasn't no fun
It's hard enough just waking up next to one

If you were oatmeal you'd just look for lumps
If you were sweet I'd call you sugarbumbs
If you were the sunshine you'd say I was pain
Well I am tired of this capricious game

'Cause I don't care like I did a minute ago
I tried to love you, but it was just too stressful though
It's like leaving your boots on when you go swimming
And I never will fight for what doesn't want winning

Oh marital carnival
Oh marital carnival
Oh marital carnival

Stop!
I wanna get off

Sweetheart, I'm gonna find myself a ride
One that doesn't bring me down this time
One that isn't always on the run (or "one that doesn't give me the runs" =)
One that can have good old fashion fun

'Cause sweetheart the purpose of my life is nothing more
Than to simply be adored
And I'm just like a special chocolate treat
I ain't no piece of leftover - hot dogs

'Cause I don't care like I did a minute ago
Oh, I tried to love you, but it was just too stressful though
It's like leaving your boots on when you go swimming
And I never will fight for - no
I never will fight for - ruff
I never will fight for what doesn't want winning
