Marmite Love poetry

By: Seamus Waldron Published: 30 July 2001

Lyrics from : <A href="http://www.tuneaday.co.uk/housewife/marmite.html" target="housewife">Housewife</A>

That's it, I've had enough of this Marmite love,
Bringing you breakfast in bed when its already lunch,
That's it, no more will I have to pour your coffee
In to you favourite morning mug, cause I accidentally smashed it on the wall, very hard.
What a shame you look so marred by the temperamental state of mind I'm showing
That's it I've had enough of this marmite.
Goodbye, I'm going.

That's it, I've got it planned I've got to make a stand
And don't you try and stop me leaving cause its all thought out,
That's it, no more will you bore me to tears with you relentless on my ears
about the washing up, cause I couldn't give a flying cup of tea about the washing up
its me or the plates and don't say that you had know way of knowing.
That's it I've had enough of this marmite love,
Goodbye - I'm going.

I've already packed my suitcase, tied it up with that new bootlace from really
expensive trainers you bought with my from my account.
I've made myself a breakfast brunch with the left overs from your office lunch,
And no there's no way to sort this out.
That's it, I've had enough of this marmite love,
I'm not your toasted soldier - And now that I have told you
Goodbye my dear I'm gone.
