I'll Keep Playing

I’m not depressed
I’m just bored
With all that my life has thrown my way
As of late

My wife does everything
That a wife is supposed to do
But now I think she’s found someone
Who’ll maybe get a clue

But I’ll keep playing
Even though I sometimes lose
My baby’s got to choose
Me or you
Me or you

Past and future images
Go flashing through my head
Of every word or phrase that I
Should have never said

Are these all ruminations
That she’d like to know
Would my heart skip a beat
If I knew that she would go

But I’ll keep playing
Even though I sometimes lose
My baby’s got to choose
Me or you
Me or you

My six figure checks mean
Nothing to me now
And yet they offer me more gambol
Than she’ll allow

But I am certain things are
Coming to a head
And still I’m devoid of any
Feelings of dread

But I’m done playing
Cause I always seem to lose
My baby’s got to choose
I hope she picks you
And chooses you
Chooses you
