Lyrics

Mental cruelty That's what I heard her say Mental cruelty To the judge that day I sat there in silence so she could be free And listened to her lying words Mental cruelty Your honor, since our marriage My life's not been the same Why I'm missing out on all the fun And he's the one to blame There's never any excitement now The way there used to be And sharing his way of life Is mental cruelty Mental cruelty That's what I heard her say Mental cruelty To the judge that day I sat there in silence so she could be free And listened to her lying words Mental cruelty Divorces have been granted For many different things Even when there's not a reason And when no one can be blamed With only two little words She's on her merry way Yes, all a woman has to claim is Mental cruelty Mental cruelty That's what I heard her say Mental cruelty To the judge that day I sat there in silence so she could be free And listened to her lying words Mental cruelty
