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...
