Hypothetical Ex
If I’d gotten with you
I’d have separation papers
To explain, why we’re through
The psycho things
That you used to say
Just defied all logic
In a weird kinda way
When we look at
What might have been
I think about a train wreck
With a lopsided grin
The retrospective
Is a telling account
Of why we see 20-20
At a rearward discount
Chorus:
Hypothetical Ex
Allegorical hex
Un-cashable cheques
Long gone T-Rex
Impossible news
Incontrovertible views
To walk in your shoes
Is to learn how to loose
I think you’ll agree
when you were with me
bad things seemed to happen in threes
what I said wasn’t right
what you did made us fight
when we turned on the light
we saw a lack of foresight
My friends weren’t yours
Your pals kept score
I kept wantin more
Of what wasn’t in the store
When you went away
It was a damn good day
Murder-suicide if I had stayed
Analyze the pieces
Opposites attract
Don’t understand the reasons
But a-likes attack
How can love be so strong
When lust makes things so wrong
You get your hooks in me
And I wanna be free
Your lust is a drug
Like a dime-store thug
One kiss is too much
10 thousand’s a crutch
