It’s amazing how the days went by with no one keeping score
It ain’t like that no more
It’s astounding how they found it so exciting once before
It ain’t like that no more

All the things that used to fly
Just an ordinary guy
Are all the things he should’ve scrubbed away
Things they’ve done a thousand times
Just don’t seem to fit and rhyme
And no one really knows just what to say

Wash the dishes, fold the clothes
Tell him things she knows he knows
Building up a list of small regrets
Tiny things accumulate
Til she just needs to wipe the slate
She needed more a partner than a pet

He’s rolling his eyes and
He don’t get what the big rush is
He says she’s the North Star
But shit’s going south
And she’s checking out

It’s amazing - it ain’t like that no more
