Longer
A Dysfunctional Love Song
Harry Smothers
(Tune: "Longer" by Dan Fogelberg)
�

Longer than there've been roaches in the kitchen
Bluer than any mold every grew
Longer than Raid's been on any store shelves
I have been bugged by you

Longer than these few years have seemed to drag on
Twisted more than aluminum screws
Grosser than your clothes pile in the closet
I have been bugged by you


You'll bring ... buddies home for dinner
I'll scream, "But we don't have any food!"
You'll beg, "Honey, do ya wanna?"
But I'm not ... in the mood

Longer than fishing trips on the weekends
Longer than all the grass never mown
Darker than water stains on the ceiling ...
I still call you my own.


You'll bring ... buddies home for dinner
I'll scream, "Why don't you call ahead?"
You'll beg, "Honey, do ya wanna?"
And I'll climb ... into bed...

Longer than all my hair in the sink drain
Stronger than bonding with Superglue
When the fights are done, and nobody can see us,
I'm still in love with you.
I am in love with you.
