The Lyrics
A little ode for the married couple... not at all about Mari. Not a bit. ..Eh?....No, dear, you did not provide even a little inspiration. .....I know sometimes I write about us, but this one was just a fantasy. .....Yes, of course I fantasize, I'm a writer....Well, go ahead, then, it doesn't bother me........that was a long time ago!!!
Darling, I am growing mold
Just like bread when it gets old
You're still in the bathroom, dear
While I'm waiting over here
I was really in the mood, the mood
After all the wine and food
Now I'm lying here in bed
"Just a minute, dear" you said
(Chorus)
Way past XP date I'm sold
Just like bread when it gets old
What the hell's taking so long?
Soon the urge will all be gone
You look beautiful tonight
Teeth are already so white
Come on out and just be brave
What else do you have to shave?
Though I really hate to gripe, to gripe
You're not going to get more ripe
Come, give me what I deserve
Our marriage is not self-serve
(Chorus)
Darling, I am growing mold
Just like bread when it gets old
You're still in the bathroom, dear
While I'm waiting over here
My mind drifts while here I wait
Think of girls I used to date
Now I'm glad that you are mine
Still, a few of them were fine
I remember many years ago
Pick-up lines at the disco
Haven't thought of her for years
Looking through rose-colored beers
(Chorus)
Darling, put our love on hold
Just like bread when it gets old
Don't come out till you are through
I am finished, how 'bout you?
Just like bread when it gets old
You're still in the bathroom, dear
While I'm waiting over here
I was really in the mood, the mood
After all the wine and food
Now I'm lying here in bed
"Just a minute, dear" you said
(Chorus)
Way past XP date I'm sold
Just like bread when it gets old
What the hell's taking so long?
Soon the urge will all be gone
You look beautiful tonight
Teeth are already so white
Come on out and just be brave
What else do you have to shave?
Though I really hate to gripe, to gripe
You're not going to get more ripe
Come, give me what I deserve
Our marriage is not self-serve
(Chorus)
Darling, I am growing mold
Just like bread when it gets old
You're still in the bathroom, dear
While I'm waiting over here
My mind drifts while here I wait
Think of girls I used to date
Now I'm glad that you are mine
Still, a few of them were fine
I remember many years ago
Pick-up lines at the disco
Haven't thought of her for years
Looking through rose-colored beers
(Chorus)
Darling, put our love on hold
Just like bread when it gets old
Don't come out till you are through
I am finished, how 'bout you?
