Cringemaker

Walter Becker

What ever happened to my college belle

When did she turn into the wife from hell



Cringemaker

What are we coming to

Cringemaker

What have they done to you



In the beginning we rode high on the hog

Down in the kitchen now it's dog eat dog



Our little Cringemaker up on the second floor

Sweet little Cringemaker

Hey listen cringemaker who locked the bedroom door

Sweet little Cringemaker

Sweet little Cringemaker



And every time I go to make my play

She rolls mighty boulders in my way



Say little cringemaker it's such a bumpy ride

Hey little cringemaker thought you were on my side



And every time I get to have my say

She just laughs and looks the other way



Oh little cringemaker this time you hurt my pride

Sweet little cringemaker

Say little cringemaker where am I gonna hide

Sweet little Cringemaker

Sweet little cringemaker



Nobody told us when we started out

Just what this life is really all about

Sometimes I wonder and you do too

If I could do it all over would I

Still do it all over you



She calls me Daddy and I just go numb

Down in the bottom where the love comes from

Sweet little cringemaker what happened on the way

Sweet little cringemaker to where we are today



I try to figure but I'm way too dumb

How we got here from where we started from

Cringe I guess we always knew

Swee' little who we would turn into

Sweet little Cringemaker
