Doug's Divorce: Part Two

Do you like to pull the band-aid quick or slow?

Do you like to be the first or last to know?

Is there someone you could phone

So you won't be here alone

As you learn about the future blow by blow

Did you ever have the feeling something's died?

Did you ever notice nothing left inside?

If I told you I was spent

Would you wonder what it meant

As we wandered through the silence side by side

I could never tell what you were thinking

Maybe if we talked a little less and listened more

Every day that past I felt us sinking

Deeper than I ever sank before

I'll be coming in the morning for my life

And I hope that you'll forgive the twisted knife

But when it comes right down to it

We just never really fit

And I wish you better luck with your next wife

You're a lovely boy, Doug

Such a lovely boy

There's a lovely girl out there still waiting

You deserve some joy, Doug

You deserve some joy

You're lovely boy, Doug

You're a lovely boy

Have you ever simply lost your appetite

Or thought of never coming home one night

That would really end it well

It's a story you could sell

And you could finally tell your mother she was right

You're a lovely boy, Doug

Such a lovely boy

There's a lovely girl on the horizon

There's a world to join, Doug

There's a world to join

You're lovely boy, Doug

You're a lovely boy

There is nothing I can say to ease the burden

I was never one for crocodile tears

I will leave you everything to store your hurt in

And I'll give you alimony for at least a couple years

You're a lovely boy, Doug

Such a lovely boy

I was not as lovely as you needed

And I filled the void, Doug

I just filled the void

You're lovely boy, Doug

You're a lovely boy
