Don't Eat The Stew!!

It doesn't seem ten years ago I nearly left this life.
I'd just come home from work that day and was
confronted by my wife.
"I don't love you anymore, I'm leaving you" she said.
I just stood there with open mouth, while those words
echoed round my head.

We'd been together man and wife for thirty years or more.
And now it was all over as she walked out through the door.
What could I do, I panicked as my tears began to flow.
Should I go chasing after her no point she wants to go.

So down I sat with head in hands confused, what had I done?
She seemed ok this morning when off to work I'd gone.
Now I'm all alone again whatever shall I do?
I nearly packed it in that day if it wasn't for the stew.

You see she'd gone and made me one just the night before.
But then I started thinking and dropped it on the floor.
She's gone and left me hasn't she, I'm not the fool you think.
Eat that stew you're joking 'cos what's in it didn't half stink.

I'd looked around and realised she'd took the dog as well.
Then I knew what was in that stew that gave a nasty smell.
It was the opened tin of dog food she hadn't thrown away.
Thank god I didn't eat it or I wouldn't be here today.

The moral of this story, though true I fib you not.
Is when your world's turned upside down and a stew is all you've got.
Make sure whoever made it isn't friendly with my X wife,
neither cat nor dog they own for this could save your life.
