Marital Carnival

   You come home, you look kind of frantic
   Too bad cause I feel romantic
   I know you're stressed out again
   Tonight - I guess - that we're just friends again
   You know I'm really not the type to compete
   I hope your meetings were filled with lots of good 'meet'
   And your appointments have lots of good 'ointments'
   ??? what you could never could satisfy
   
   *** CHORUS ***
   Cause I don't carry you like I did a minute ago
   I tried to love you but it was just too stressful
   It's like leavin' your boots on when you go swimming
   But I never will fight for what doesn't want to win
   
   You wake up - I'm doing cartwheels
   You're grumpy
   Said, "Try some how I feel"
   "I'm happy" just wasn't no fun
   It's hard enough just waking up next to one
   You know if you were oatmeal - you'd just look for lumps
   If you were sweet I'd call you sugarbumps
   If you were the sunshine you'd say I was
   Well I am tired of this capricious game
   
   *** Chorus
   
   A Marital Carnival
   A Marital Carnival
   A Marital Carnival
   Stop!
   I want to get off...
   
   Sweetheart, I'm gonna find myself a ride
   One that doesn't bring me down this time
   One that isn't always on the run
   One that can have good old fashioned fun
   Cause you know my purpose in life is nothing more
   Is then to simply be a dork
   I'm just like a special chocolate treat
   I ain't no piece of leftover hot dogs...
   
   *** Chorus ***
   
   I never will fight for
   No!
   I never will fight for
   Ruff!
   I never will fight for what doesn't want to win (winning)
