Harvey Schmidt - The Honeymoon Is Over lyrics

[AGNES] When your husband treats you like a piece of dirt When you find the purple lipstick on his shirt Then, my dear, it's clear the honeymoon is over And you'd better be on the alert! [MICHAEL] When your wife decides that she should wear the pants When she gets your goat each time she gets the chance Then, my dear, it's clear the honeymoon is over And you'd better search for some romance! [BOTH] Time you saw your Old, trusty lawyer Ask him whether You should find another nest to feather! [AGNES] When you husband suddenly becomes the swell- [MICHAEL] When you wife is bored by every joke you tell - [BOTH] Then, my dear, it's clear the honeymoon is over And you may as well Pack up, move out Tell him, "Darling Fare thee well! Time you saw your Old, trusty lawyer Ask him whether You should find another nest to feather! [AGNES] When your husband starts to play cherchez la femme- [MICHAEL] When you wife is always ready to condemn- [BOTH] Then, my dear, it's clear the honeymoon is over- And you may as well [MICHAEL] Play the scene out [AGNES] Make your exit [MICHAEL] Hit the climax [AGNES] Pull the curtain [MICHAEL] Pack up [AGNES] Move out [BOTH] Tell him, "Darling! Together forever! Looks more like it's never! Fare thee well!" Go to hell!
