His Wife Refused Lyrics

A great big house- with nothing in it
He comes home says "Now wait a minute"
He`s comin` in She`s goin` out
He turns around says, "What`s that about?"

Do what they like, the kid`s in school
Think she don`t know, now, who`s kidding who?
He turns around says "Who wants to know?"
Open the door and there`s nobody home!

Go ahead- fill their heads
Go ahead- fill their heads with poison
Take a look- these people are savages!
Take a look- at their misfortune

I`m goin up I got a message
I`m gonna wait till I close the door
I`m gonna wrap, myself in blankets
I`m gonna, roll out, across the floor

Well the bride  bride and the groom
Run in a circle around their house
They`re goin` out they`re comin` in
Inside a circle around their house

These shoes don`t fit- this tie don`t match
I`m gonna throw it away when I get home.
I`m turned around I`m doin` my best
I`m gonna wait until the light comes on.

Yes he`s the king and she`s the queen
Run in a circle around their house.
Open the door and let them in
Inside a circle around their house.
