Prompt: "Buyer's Remorse"

----Bug's Song-----

Title: Board Games

Additional Challenge: Giving yourself a nickname

Lyrics:

I should've never done it

I should've saved my budget

I can't believe I even tried when I'm the only one that

has the resolve and focus

to stick with what we've chosen

But as the night drags on I'm learning that this quest is hopeless

This is never what this evening was about

I have to keep it bottled everytime I wanna shout

Stop talking during board games!

Don't ask whose turn it is, its your, babe!

You would know that if you hadn't asked how Hannah's Graduation went

there were prolly speeches half as long as this distraction is

Stop talking during board games!

Do you know how long this took to coordinate?

3 couples in their thirties on a table-flipping thursday

now all of them are yawning by the middle of the 1st game

I've popped out all the pieces

spent 3+ hours reading

no, they don't call me the Rulebook Ruler for no reason

Sometimes this job is brutal

but I just do it, you know

I took all day to learn the lore and that was just for Uno

I wanna game but you hit me with reverse

now everytime you talk I wanna table-flippin' curse!

Stop talking during board games!

Don't ask whose turn it is, its your, babe!

You would know that if you hadn't brought up Molly's border-collie

now they're all looking at puppy pics

instead of killing zombies

Stop talking during board games!

now I think that I understand divorce rates

I was totally on board for in sickness and in health

guess I should have seen this coming from your 20 minute vows

But the worst part of this is, despite my perfect planned tactics

when we tally up you always win

All your talking during board games

to disrupt my strategy was your aim

thought I was married to a monster but it turns out you're a master

I can't describe this feeling but I think that its attraction?

All your talking during board games

and pretending you were always really bored made

me put down my defenses and fill my head with doubts

but babe that's really clever I'm so table-flippin' proud
