The Honeymoon Is Over
When your husband treats you like a piece of dirt
When you find a purple lipstick on his shirt
Then my dear, it's clear the honeymoon is over
And you better be on the alert
When your wife decides that she should wear the pants
When she gets your goat each time she gets the chance
Then my dear, it's clear the honeymoon is over
And you'd better search for some romance!
Time you saw your old trusty lawyer
Ask him whether
You should find another nest to feather
When your husband suddenly becomes the swell
When your wife is bored by every joke you tell
Then my dear, it's clear the honeymoon is over
And you may as well
Pack up, move out
Tell her (tell him)
"Darling, fare thee well"
Time you saw your old trusty lawyer
Ask him whether
You should find another nest to feather
When your husband starts to play cherchez la femme
When your wife is always ready to condemn
Then my dear, it's clear the honeymoon is over
And you may as well
Play the scene out
Make your exit
Hit the climax
Pull the curtain
Pack up
Move out
Tell him (tell her)
"Darling, together forever
Looks more like it's never
Fare thee well
Go to hell!"
When you find a purple lipstick on his shirt
