Don't Ask About My Husband

Meet me in Cork
 Meet me in Dublin
 But whatever you do don't ask about my husband
 I'll meet you in Spain
 I'll meet you in France
 But whatever you don't ask about my romance
 And if it's late and my breath is stinking
 Don't criticize my smoking and my drinking
 And if it's late and my mind is spacing
 Don't ask about what kind of pills I'm taking
 Meet me in Leeds
 Meet me in London
 Whatever you do don't ask about my children
 Meet me in brighton
 Meet me in Yorkshire
 But don't ask me about my job as a middle school counsellor
 And if it's late and my heart is hearting
 Don't ask about what's under my skin lurking
 And if it's late and my eyes are tearing
 Don't try to lift me up or give me any cheering
 Sophia
 Meet me in prague or Istanbul
 But whatever you do don't ever show up at my funeral
 I'd meet you in Detroit or even Winnipeg
 But whatever you do don't ever show up at my work
 And if I'm gone and you don't hear from me, whatever you do don't ever dare phone me
 And if I'm gone and you don't hear from me, I hope there's something good you'll remember about me
