"She Got The Garden" lyrics - PAUL HEATON

She left for someone
So much slimmer than me
My confidence wrecked
Like a ship in the sea
But I got allotment
And I got the shed
I got the toys
When the kids have dropped dead

I got the confidence
Nipped in the bud
I got the backchat
That does me no good
Just when you think
She can't get no more cold
She's emptied the freezer
And left me the mould

Just when you think
She's got all that you got
She got the roof
And left chimney pot
And just when you think
She can't get any lower
She got the garden
And left you the mower

When I asked why
She found somebody else
She answered me 'why
Just take a look at yourself'
And just when I felt
It was as low as it gets
She's left me the dog food
And taken the pets

I got the new flat
A fridge full of beer
And you got the new friend
Loving you here
In what once was my bed
And I got the couch
Or a mattress instead

Just when you think
She's got all that you got
Just when you've stood there
In permanent shock
You've spent your last penny
Just lost your last stock
And she's got the acres
And you've lost the plot
