Lyrics

Mental cruelty, that's what I heard him say
 Mental cruelty to the judge that day
 I sat there in silence so he could be free
 And listened to his lying words mental cruelty
 Your Honor, since our marriage
 My life's not been the same
 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
 And doing his laundry, 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
 Divorce has 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 the 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 (his) lying words mental cruelty
 And listened to her (his) lying words mental cruelty
 Mental cruelty, that's what I heard him say
 Mental cruelty to the judge that day
 I sat there in silence so he could be free
 And listened to his lying words mental cruelty
 Your Honor, since our marriage
 My life's not been the same
 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
 And doing his laundry, 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
 Divorce has 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 the 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 (his) lying words mental cruelty
 And listened to her (his) lying words mental cruelty
