Things Have Gone to Pieces

Oh the faucet started dripping in the kitchen
 Last night your picture fell down from the wall
 And today the boss said
 "sorry son I can't use you anymore"
 And tonight the light bulb went out down the hall
 Oh, things have gone to pieces since you left me
 Nothin' turns out half right, now it seems
 There ain't nothin' in my pocket, but three nickels and a dime
 And I'm holding to the pieces of my dreams
 Somebody threw a baseball through my window
 And the arm fell off my favourite chair today
 Oh the man he came today, said he'd haul all my things away
 If I didn't get my payments made by ten
 Things have gone to pieces since you left me
 Now nothin' turns out half right, now it seems
 There ain't nothin' in my pocket but three nickels and a dime
 And I'm holding to the pieces of my dreams
