Sorry Lament For Gilded Wallets

When I consider what my wife has spent [Beefy ]

In Paris and Milan, and Milton Keynes [Roland]

Small wonder I've created many scenes [Beefy ]

Small wonder she refuses to relent [Roland]

You see now why my mien is tired and bent [Beefy ]

She started out at humble Village Halls [Roland]

Succumbed then to the lure of market stalls [Beefy ]

And soon enough to major shopping malls [Roland]

When I added my credit bills together [Grayman]

In horror, shock and awe, as in a trance [Beefy ]

Small wonder I refused to join her dance [Kansas Sam]

You could have knocked me down with a feather [Grayman]

What could one girl want with so much leather? [Beefy ]

She started out a'clad in wool and denim [Kansas Sam]

Soon she'd dressed to kill at Blenheim [Roland]

And left me here, reduced to my last pennym [Beefy ]
