lyrics

It takes a lifetime
To figure out the means
How to keep it all wild and alive
Or so it seems

There's a few golden rules
The gods bestowed upon us
Engraved in the part of your brain
Where feelings come from

What's mine is yours
And what's yours is yours
Good friends will tell you
You've only got one chore
If you have a Happy Wife, you got a happy life
Don't forget it, you'll regret it, and burn like the hellfire

If you can’t take the time
For your lovers needs
You're sleeping on the couch tonight
Counting sheep

Now there's a handbook
You can reference to
Every man knows it
Just forgets what to do

There's a few golden rules
The gods bestowed upon us
Engraved in the part of your brain
Where feelings come from

What's mine is yours
And what's yours is yours
Good friends will tell you
You've only got one chore
If you have a Happy Wife, you got a happy life
Don't forget it, you'll regret it, and burn like the hellfire
