Your accountant called this morning

There was springtime in his heart

He couldn't wait to tell me

How he'd pulled our lives apart

And the letter from your lawyer

Lies unopened on the tray

I may get around to reading it later today

Walking round the lonely rooms

I see everything the same

But suddenly it matters

What was purchased in my name

Whether this or that was paid for

Belongs to me or you

Can the seven years together be divided by two

It says something for the legal boys

But nothing much for us

That all we had together

Is so quickly ended thus

The legal boys have won again

And you and I have lost

They can't tell us how it happened

But they'll let us know the cost

Oh they'll let us know the cost oh yeah

There's a lot I'd like to tell you

But I can't get past your guards

I do not speak their language

And they hold all the cards

I would rather call you darling

Than defendant in the case

But lovers left here long ago

And clients took their place

It says something for the legal boys

But nothing much for us

That all we had together

Is so quickly ended thus

The legal boys have won again

And you and I have lost

They can't tell us how it happened

But they'll let us know the cost

Oh they'll let us know the cost oh yeah
