CRYSTAL GAYLE
"Picking Up After You"

Here comes the bride
And there goes the groom
Looks like a hurricane
Went through this room

Smells like a pool hall
Where's my other shoe
And I'm sick and tired of pickin' up after you

Looks like you spent the night in a trench
And tell me
How long have you been combing your hair with a wrench

Blue roses are dead
And the violets are too
And I'm sick and tired of pickin' up after you

Well, I've told you before
I won't tell you again
You don't defrost the icebox
With a ball point pen

This railroad apartment
Is held together with glue
And I'm sick and tired of pickin' up after you

Because I know
I been swindled
I never bargained for this
Once more you never cared about me

Why don't you get your own place
So you can live like you do?
And I'm sick and tired of pickin' up after you

Take all your relatives
And all of your shoes
Believe me I'll really swing when you're gone
I'll be living on chicken and wine
After we're through
With someone I pick up after you

With someone I'll pick up after you
With someone I'll pick up after you
With someone I'll pick up after you
