Like small children divorces are messy

Legal fees only add to the frustration

But perhaps the hardest thing of all

Is coping with an ex-partner's indignation

 

It's not easy but we must be fair to Belinda

She gave me the best years of her life

After all she is the mother of my kids

She was, all in all, a half-decent wife

 

Of course dear, you are my partner now

Belinda is strictly yesterday's news

Yet your loving arms have not quite worked

To drive off my post-marriage blues

 

It's not easy but we must be fair to Belinda

She gave me the best years of her life

After all she is the mother of my kids

She was, all in all, a half-decent wife

 

I'm sensing that you will only bring me sorrow

The best thing might be to ring Belinda tomorrow

 

It's not easy but we must be fair to Belinda

She gave me the best years of her life

After all she is the mother of my kids

She was, all in all, a half-decent wife
