about

Some people are too proud to admit that they miss the other person after a break-up. The one singing this song even goes so far as to say: "I am better off without you, but my cat is miserable and my house is falling apart out, so come back for their sake, will you..."

lyrics

Ever since you left me I've been quite alright
It doesn't make me lose any sleep at night
But when you made your speech about how much you care
There was one creature's feelings you forgot to spare

It didn't hurt me a bit when you packed your stuff
It was cluttering up my house, I can't thank you enough
But there is one little thing that you shouldn't have done
You hurt my cat's feelings when you went and gone

How could you do this to a feline?
I never should have trusted you to be mine
I wish I had it in me to tear you apart
Cause you really are a dog of a guy breaking a kitten's heart

My cat has lost all interest in food and play
She just sits and stares out the window all day
The place is crawling with mice but she couldn't care less
Your irresistable charm has left the poor thing obsessed

How could you do this...

All of my flowers have died
And even the curtains are turning grey
Ever since you had the nerve to go away
My entire house is in a state of decay

I don't know how much more I can take of this gloom
Even the wallpaper is cracking up in every room
And that is why I see no other way
Than to ask you consider coming home

So this is why I see no other way
Than to ask you to consider coming home today
