BREAKING UP

Let’s stop and get some coffee
Have a cup or two
I have to tell you something
I’m breaking up with you.

I’m tired of all the fighting
The tension and the moods
Let’s face it… we’re not meant to be
I’m sick and tired of you.

Your constant,  chronic complaining
Your incessant whining and greed
You don’t know the meaning of sharing
You don’t know the meaning of clean.

You never take out the garbage
You lay around all day
You use  every excuse under the sun
Never listen to what I say.

You’d rather watch some cartoons
Than share a romantic evening at home
You spend most of your day playing video games
You just want to be left alone.

Find a girl that’s into football
Someone else who’ll serve your wings
Someone into hotdogs and  chips
Sloppy Joes and fried onion rings.

I’m tired of fast food and nachos
Pizza for dinner and your snacks
I’m going to leave you for good,  this time
I won’t be coming back.
