The Suffering Fishbone

I saw the stars in your eyes
And I knew it was puppy school love
(...)
You saw the twinkle in mine
Then we both knew it was time to hold our breath
(And run and get committed)
We got lost in a sea of love and lust
With a galaxy of trust
(We were soon committed)
To each other like a mussel in a clam
To the movies to the mall glued together hand in hand

And we walked and ran through loveland
Everything was fine
Until my baby took me for my very last dime

Bang, bang, shoot me dead
Thought my baby loved me but I'd been mislead
My, my she sucked me dry
Now the little missus wants to say bye bye
Once I was a king
Now I'm wrapped around her finger like a diamond ring
The engagement ring, the wedding ring
The church bells ring
And the suffering
