What You Gonna Do About Me

[Verse 1]
You take the records, I'll take the stereo
You get the TV, and I'll take the radio
I'll keep the dishes, and you the pots and pans
You'll need a new car more than me, so I'll take the second hand
We'll each keep our own friends, divide the rest in two
The only kids seem to understand, still there's one thing left to do
It's over in the corner, our little one sits and cries
And behind that swell of tears she's asking with her eyes

[Chorus]
What are you going to do about me?
What are you going to do about me?
Is it daddy on the weekend, mama rest of the week?
Will I have to make new friends? Live on a different street?
Who's going to be the one who tucks me into sleep?
Oh, what are you going to do, what are you going to do about me?

[Verse 2]
I gave her a hug, she pushed me away
I said in time you'll understand, and maybe we both will someday
I wiped her tears, and said, "It won't be so bad"
She said, "Will you still be my mommy, will he still be my dad?"

[Chorus]
What are you going to do about me?
What are you going to do about me?
Is it daddy on the weekend, mama rest of the week?
Will I have to make new friends? Live on a different street?
Who's going to be the one who tucks me into sleep?
Oh, what are you going to do, what are you going to do about me?

[Outro]
How can I tell her when I don't know for sure?
Why her mom and dad don't love each other anymore?
