"My Better Half" lyrics

My Better Half

Kick my shoe off
Take my sock off
Pull my pant off
And I find my pyjama
And put it on
Then I crawl into the bed
And I cry my eye out
Now that my better half is gone

I just lay there
And as I lay there
My arms feel so empty
And my lip longs to kiss her
All night long
If I had the gut
I'd blow my brain out
Now that my better half is gone

I was a whole man
When I was with her
Now I'm a plier
I'm a scissor
Half this
Half that
Half slow
Half fast

Oh, I've got the blue
And I'm up to my elbow in heartache
Now that my better half is gone

One, three, four, two
Now that my better half is gone
