Array ( [sid] => 19616 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Heavily Hurt [time] => 2003-06-27 02:45:00 [hometext] => My dad used to drink to excess. Still does, I guess, but after 20 years (I wrote it that long ago) we seem to get along ok now. [bodytext] => HEAVILY HURT

I've had it to here with your sherry and beer,
You drink like a fish every night.
Well I hope in disgust that your bladder will bust,
I hate you - stay out of my sight.
The pain that you've put this family through
Shows signs of breaking in two.
The stress and the strain of a love that you've slain
Will end with the downfall of you.
You steal and you cheat, won't accept defeat,
Well, your number's up at last.
I have my pride - I'm not on your side,
You're just a thing of the past.
My family and I share a love that is deep,
I won't let you take that away.
It's too late to regret - I'll see you hang yet,
You've gone too far and you'll pay.
You are no more the man I adored,
No longer my father, nor other,
Now, to me, you will only be,
The man who married my mother.

HEAVILY HURT

I've had it to here with your sherry and beer,
You drink like a fish every night.
Well I hope in disgust that your bladder will bust,
I hate you - stay out of my sight.
The pain that you've put this family through
Shows signs of breaking in two.
The stress and the strain of a love that you've slain
Will end with the downfall of you.
You steal and you cheat, won't accept defeat,
Well, your number's up at last.
I have my pride - I'm not on your side,
You're just a thing of the past.
My family and I share a love that is deep,
I won't let you take that away.
It's too late to regret - I'll see you hang yet,
You've gone too far and you'll pay.
You are no more the man I adored,
No longer my father, nor other,
Now, to me, you will only be,
The man who married my mother.

Sue
