THIS RING

This ring around the tub is yours.
Sure, I swore to love in sickness and in health.
Who knew I'd get so sick of all these hours
of this ring around the bathtub wealth.

This ring is you calling tonight again,
telling me you won't be home.
Seems you've got to help relieve some men.
There's a poker game won't leave you alone?

This ring was something I took from you alright,
all shiny with promises to love and obey.
Honey, I just lost it cleaning the tub tonight.
Somehow this is poetic justice, wouldn't you say?
