"The Divorce Sale" lyrics

The Divorce Sale

Who'll buy the table
And who'll buy the bed?
Who'll buy the memories?
The auction is set

Who'll bid for old love
That's grown cold and stale?
It's the grand divorce going, going
Out of business sale

It's a grand divorce
Going out of business sale
Odds and ends from two people
Whose love don't gel
She will take the baby
And he'll keep the hell
At this grand divorce going, going
Out of business sale

Who'll take this photograph
Of two kids in love?
Make it more than a dollar, friend
Cause that's not enough

Who'll buy their coffee cups
Where lips of love have failed
At this grand divorce going, going
Out of business sale?

There they stand in an empty room
Everything is sold
Hating to break away
And walk out in the cold

Two grown-ups and a baby
With nothing but themselves
It's a grand divorce going, gone
Out of business sale
