This was usually the show closer. Unless we decided to do a cover for the encore. Yeah…we actually got encores. I’m as shocked as you are.<\/p>\n
Anyway…here’s the story behind the song:<\/p>\n
Early morning phone call. Location; unknown. Guy getting an earful from his wife. They obviously have some issues. She’s tired of his partying, and ignoring her, and pulls the “D” card. Figures she can take him for half…or better. Well, he knows she’s been f*cking around on him while he’s out partying. He’s got photographic proof. So…let the games begin! Give it a listen. There’s a twist.<\/p>\n
Picked up the telephone<\/em> She said, I think I want a divorce<\/em> Be-cause<\/em><\/p>\n This time baby, you’ve gone too far<\/em> Your sorry ass is none of my concern<\/em> Tell me now baby, who was that clown?<\/em> (Solo)<\/em><\/p>\n I was…<\/em> Well now baby, you’ve gone too far<\/em> You’ll tell your story, they’ll say it was true<\/em> She got the house. She got the car<\/em> I got no house. I got no car<\/em> Her sorry ass, was none of my concern<\/em>
\n She said Son, I’m glad you’re home<\/em>
\n I got somethin’ you got to know<\/em>
\n And that’s for sure<\/em>
\n She said…<\/em>
\n I’m tired of you stayin’ out all night<\/em>
\n Goin’ out, gettin’ drunk, get in-to a fight<\/em>
\n While I’m home alone n’ I’m worried to death<\/em>
\n Come thru’ the door with liquor on your breath<\/em><\/p>\n
\n I said yes u-huh of course<\/em>
\n I’m gonna take you for a buck or two<\/em>
\n I got news for you…<\/em><\/p>\n
\n I’ll take the house, you can take the car<\/em>
\n Trust me baby<\/em>
\n I’ve got money to burn!<\/em>
\n Sounds like a story, But tell the truth<\/em>
\n I got the photos, I got the truth<\/em>
\n Don’t try me baby<\/em>
\n I’ve got money to burn<\/em><\/p>\n
\n I think it’s time a lesson to be learned<\/em><\/p>\n
\n Was it you or the camera that was upside-down?<\/em>
\n Your little affair, now that didn’t hurt<\/em>
\n What bothers me is he’s wearin’ my shirt!<\/em><\/p>\n
\n All made up for my day in court<\/em>
\n Promisin’ this would be sweet, but short<\/em>
\n All laid out with my master plan<\/em>
\n To ruin the life of the other man<\/em>
\n But she knew somethin’ that I didn’t know<\/em>
\n Had her own little ace-in-the-hole<\/em>
\n Court came to order, and I couldn’t budge<\/em>
\n The man in my plan, it was the judge!<\/em><\/p>\n
\n You’ll get the house, you’ll get the car<\/em>
\n You’ll probably even get my money to burn!<\/em><\/p>\n
\n And then they’ll give everything to you<\/em>
\n Including my money to burn<\/em><\/p>\n
\n And I’m face-down at the end of the bar<\/em>
\n I can’t stand you<\/em>
\n You got my money to burn<\/em><\/p>\n
\n My dinner last night was a candy bar<\/em>
\n No more money to burn<\/em><\/p>\n
\n This game o’ cat & mouse? I just got burned<\/em><\/p>\n\n
