Canasta - Choosing Sides lyrics

He'll be close by Twice a week, you'll see him So don't cry, my dear You're old enough to make your rules About caffeine, ca**ette tapes and The cable TV Dinner's in the microwave I'm off to work And leaving you a key Despite what I said I'm moving downtown instead I'm sure we'll (he'll) find a spot To put your bed I've asked he knock He lived here once And thinks he can just walk right in She won't come down, but sends a note "It's the first, where's my check And why is it late? Let's stay out of each other's way Let me know which functions And which dates" I need more time Three houses and I'm behind Here's some paperwork For her (him) to sign I know this must feel like You're choosing sides No one's wrong or right But soon they'll ask you to decide Don't feel any pressure I know he'd (she'd) agree She'll (he'll) always be your mom (dad) But don't you think you're better off with me? Don't you think you're better off Don't you think you're better off Don't you think you're better off with me? (x2)
