Don't go calling the kettle black. At least I think that's how the saying goes.
                                                                            Revenge is not so sweet

                                                                          She visited me at home today,
                                                                      a blonde woman who’s going grey.
                                                                        She spoke of her long lost lover
                                                                              with another undercover.

                                                                            “She is younger and I am old.
                                                                        Has sex with her, so I’ve been told.
                                                                          Her body’s thin and hair is black.”
                                                                      Then her tears she had to force back.

                                                                          "In my heart revenge is burning
                                                                            Knowing he wont be returning!
                                                                        All these years I’ve yielded to him,
                                                                            His last day is starting to dim!”

                                                                        I told her, “Girl, get down and pray.
                                                                        Your God will save your soul today.
                                                                            Before you kill your old lover,
                                                                            look under your own bed cover!"
