We are advised to look up to you

Your wife no longer looks beautiful and sexy
Her cooking is bland, her nagging surpasses the rate of inflation
You discover that the pastor is now her bosom friend
Instead of talking things over you decide it's time to spark old flames
Yet we are advised to look up to you

Your husband no longer looks handsome
His stomach resembles an oil barrel and his performance in-between the sheets? oh shit!
He spends more time in his office seat than with you in cineplex seats
''Darling, I love you,'' is nowadays deficient in his vocabulary
You no longer laugh at his jokes, his wallet is a restricted area
Instead of talking things over you decide it's time to spark old flames
Yet we are advised to look up to you

Your rich brother dies but first let's mourn
After a cross has speared his grave you reckon it's time to inherit his wife and children
If she resists an eviction is in order, please take only your belongings with you
Yet we are advised to look up to you

Before you render a service you demand a bribe
Before you give him or her a job you demand sex
Before you sell a product you wink at your customers and ask them whether they want a receipt with the purchase or not
Yet we are advised to look up to you
