Lyrics
Party Of The First Part
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
At last it's finally over
Today you get your way
It's in the hands of lawyers
Today they have their say
We can only talk through strangers
A judge says what will be
And the final word is they're taking you from me
When the party of the first part
Breaks the heart of the party of the second part
The party with the broken heart just falls apart
The party of the first takes love
And all the party of the second just takes the fall
I don't like this kind of party at all
The kids go stay with Grandma
The house goes up for sale
While we organize our failures down to the last detail
And then we tell the story
Your side first, then mine
Now the party's over
Just sign the bottom line
When the party of the first part
Breaks the heart of the party of the second part
The party with the broken heart just falls apart
The party of the first takes love
And all the party of the second just takes the fall
I don't like this kind of party at all
I don't like this kind of party at all
