Oh, Elaine.... 

  Buxom and daring, wild and free
  The middle years don't show on you Elaine
  Your 3 children have not marred your stomach
  Or dulled your desires - maybe even refined them

  Where were you that night?
  That night we both regret
  That night we separated

  An ephemeral wish of reconciliation
  Shattered on the rocks of reality
  WE no longer need each other
  Oh Elaine ......

 I Hate It

If I do this and I do that
   For endless months and months
   Eschewing the most basic of luxuries
   If I give up them - if I stop drinking that
          GRRRRRRRRRR
   Ill have xxxx $'s in xxxx time
          GRRRRRRRRR
   I hate being on a benefit.
