Took her pills and her magazines

Left her lying in her misery

He was locked up in his room

Colored pinwheels as the sirens wine down the avenue



CHORUS:

Think about it once

Take your time don't fuss

What you got to lose

Everybody choose



Think about it once

Take your time, don't fuss



All the dog-eared pages on your shell

You never talk except about yourself

All the red eyes in the room

Tried to rearrange your world for you



CHORUS

Think about it once

What you got to lose



As he pulled his pad and scribbled "suicide"

the county coroner, he shook his head from side to side

He was a little less than pleased

Very pale and very tired

The toil of love had brought them to their knees



CHORUS

CHORUS
