[Verse 1] She got up and put her makeup on Made a pot of coffee extra strong At the kitchen table sucking on a cigarette Read the paper in a cloud of smoke While the dirty dinner dishes soaked Woke up the kids and coaxed them out of bed [Chorus] Then she burnt the toast just like the day before The day she got divorced [Verse 2] Left the kids with the girl next door Parked her car at the county court Around and around about the child support He'll never pay The judge said, "We're going to have to start Without the party of the second part" Because the party of the second part was M-I-A [Chorus] [Verse 3] It didn't feel any different than it ever has She wasn't that sorry, wasn't that sad [Chorus] [Verse 4 Was at work and had the whole day off Bought a bottle, then she called her boss Waited for him at the motel lot until he got there First he told her that her hair looked nice Promised he was going to leave his wife He had two more lines but she didn't care [Chorus] [Verse 5] She didn't feel any different than it ever had She wasn't that sorry, wasn't that sad [Chorus] [Verse 6] Kids are yakking with their hungry mouths Dog scratching, laying on the couch Think she really ought to clean this house but what the hell [Chorus]
