The Game of Life

Let's play a game

Called how often can you say you want a divorce

Before we actually see the papers

Roll the dice

To see who makes the first move

Make your bets

I know who I've got money on

Spin the spinner

Gain custody of whichever child it lands closest to

The one who's stuck with me loses

Pray for aces

But remember king beats queen

Perhaps it's biased

But I can take a gamble on who will win

Take two steps back

When you lash out at me for your problems

Three steps back

When either of you pretend that you're the better parent

So let's play a game

Roll the dice

Spin the spinner

Take your gamble

Pray for luck

Let's hope it's a short game

There won't be a rematch
