I'm A Little Teapot 2-Broken Apart
Cruel words and many demands seen and heard from my teapot.
Rated:

I’m a little teapot, I see you sittin’ and staring
Your world’s torn apart, ‘cause he just stopped caring
Lives, once filled with all those hopes and dreams
Now unreachable’ because of all the things

I’d see you both, when you’d argue and fight
Then I’d hear you in there, trying to make it right
But words once said, though hidden from the mind
Remain in the heart, eat away, begin to grind

Those cruel little words you would use on him
Ripped out his heart, made his skin, paper thin
All the things he did, just couldn’t satisfy
I’d see him from the kitchen, break down and cry

On Friday you’d demand he hand you the money
He’d throw it on the table, “Here ya go honey!”
Each fight he’d lose a little more of his dream
Hide it in his heart, you’d cut off his steam

Now earlier today, still talking about money
You wanted the house, child support and alimony
Even though he’s offered to give all that he had
For you, never enough, he’s gone and you’re sad

You took it all, except what meant the most
I saw it all from the kitchen, here at my post
He told me then he’d not be back this way
For it was a very sad, Valentine’s Day
