No More Fighting

No More Fighting

It’s very easy not to watch the clock
when there’s someplace that you’ve got to be
and now I watch the clock religiously

And the telephone is really not my friend
with or without you on the other end
and maybe that’s why I ripped it
I ripped it right out of the wall
Looked just like you, babe.

There ain’t no more fighting now that we’re like this
There ain’t no more fighting day and night
No more fighting and that’s what I miss
The way that we used to fight
We sure could fight

And all of the songs
that are on
the radio
They’re telling me things that I already know
And maybe that’s why I don’t listen to my stupid
radio
Sounds just like me babe
Don’t it?

There ain’t no more fighting now that we’re like this
There ain’t no more fighting day and night
No more fighting and that’s what I miss
The way that we used to fight
We sure could fight

And it would go like this

One on one
Toe to toe
Once again
There we’d go
With a fight

And now that my life
is so
very very peaceful
I don’t shout and I don’t scream
much
We are still fighting in my dreams
and the waking world’s just boring after that

There ain’t no more fighting now that we’re like this
There ain’t no more fighting day and night
No more fighting and that’s what I miss
The way that we used to fight
We sure could fight

Just like the cats and dogs
Just like the cats and dogs
Just like the oil and the water
Just like the mother and the father used to
fight
