Song Lyrics

Before you came along I was as free as a bird
Doing what I wanted, but then I heard
That things could be better, that was the word
The hue and cry, that's no lie, promises absurd

Couldn't leave you alone, took over my home
Gave you all of my love but you're just like a dog with a bone
Made me wish I had no testosterone
The hue and cry, that's no lie, you're some kind of syndrome

After all that you've done, what should I say?
Life's never been better than it is today
In spite of all that you say, all that you do
There'll never come a day that I don't love you
When you're around I feel a complete tool And you're never happier than when making me a fool
Do I always have to subject to your ridicule
The hue and cry, that's no lie, it ain't so kind to be cruel

They say for folks its different strokes
But do I always have to be the butt of your jokes?
Forever giving you all that I had, now you've got me new iPad
The hue and cry, that's no lie, I must be going mad

After all that you've done, what should I say?
Never been happier than I am today
In spite of all that you say, all that you do
There'll never come a day that I don't love you

You never do what I say, never say what I want
Your disrespect for me is what you love to flaunt
Don't care about anything, just a bon-vivant
The hue and cry, that's no lie, are we ever going to reach a détente

That fact that you're so small that you resemble a mouse
Doesn't in any way prevent you making a mess of my house
Your the kid of diva unimaginable by even Richard Strauss
The hue and cry, that's no lie, not long till I'm in the nuthouse

After all that you've done, what should I say?
Never been happier than I am today
In spite of all that you say, all that you do
There'll never come a day that I don't love you
