240108: Who Gets The Dog

from Leap Songs, Part 3 by James Tristan Redding

/

lyrics

So it's time we're finally pulling the plug
What began so sweet became bad blood
Lawyer up and let's make this thing official
In the end I just want the dog you can keep both our nickels

Well you can have the shotgun shack we been living in
And keep the ring you used to wear God knows where its been
Take it all keep on playing the world's smallest violin
Change the locks but I ain't forgot
Who gets the dog

Started out making love in the kitchen
Over time settled into a rhythm
And as last we both enjoyed a hallway rendezvous
Every night catch each other's eye and softy say screw you

Well you can have the four post bed we ain't shared in months
And keep the checks the fake Rolex hell you can even have my truck
Take it all see if I give one single flying 😮
Change the locks but I ain't forgot
Who gets the dog
