Lyrics

Take 50%
copyright 2006 Michael Duer

VERSE 1
She and I?ve fought like rabid wolves since I can?t remember when
She hits the ceiling if I crack a beer, hits the roof when I go out with my friends
When she threatened me with divorce I tried to try again
But I can?t take her anymore, this time I ain?t caving in (so I told her)

CHORUS
Go ahead take 50% of my money
Go ahead take 50% of my cars
One thing for sure I?ll be so happy
When I?m 100% rid of the pain that you are

VERSE 2
(Let?s see) 50% of a hundred bucks is 50 if my figurin?s right (? 30, 40, 50)
50% of two beat up jalopies is the one with the broken brake lines (here?s the keys baby)
After you treat yourself to dinner and wine and gloat that the battle is won
Don?t forget as you approach the bend with the cliff that your brakes are gone

CHORUS
Go ahead take 50% of my money
Go ahead take 50% of my cars
You can?t figure out why I?m so happy
(It?s cause) I?m 100% rid of the pain that you are

BRIDGE
I really don?t mean no harm I wish you the best of luck
But hell no I ain?t fixin your car, no you can?t borrow 200 bucks

CHORUS
Cause you took 50% of my money
And you took 50% of my cars
I tell ya? I couldn?t be more happy
Cause I can hang out in a bar
With a beer and fat cigar
With my friends that are bizarre
And without the pain that you are
