"I dug my key into the side
Of his pretty little souped-up 4 wheel drive
Carved my name into his leather seat
I took a Louisville slugger to both head lights
Slashed a hole in all 4 tires
And maybe next time he'll think before he cheats..."

The poor guy probably just stopped for directions or something?

How did his wife expect him to find his way home after she smashed his head-lights?

I'm glad I know my way home every night. I never get lost, my wife tells me where to go all the time.
