Splitting Into Three Lyrics - Squeeze

(Difford/Tilbrook) 

My dad he drives a tipper 

For the factory down the lane 

And every June or July 

He takes two weeks in Spain 

He hangs his dirty trousers 

Behind the bathroom door 

Where his girlfriend puts her hair up 

Bath water on the floor 

My dad goes down the river 

Each Sunday with his boat 

And him with Roy and Kevin 

Drop beer crates on a rope 

He comes back from the river 

But his girlfriend's up the pub 

So all this fish go flying 

And he storms out in a huff

My dad liked Lulu and my mum liked Simon Dee 

We used to sit together and watch them on TV 

Then one day it's over and we're splitting into three 

Sometimes I stay with my mum 

Her boyfriend's such a sap 

He once bought me a new rod 

That I gave to my dad 

He makes out that he likes me 

I know it isn't true 

He's got some stupid stories 

About the teds he knew 

My dad and me went drinking 

My mum turned up alone 

She said she couldn't take it 

His car bits in the home 

I heard them arrange a meeting 

For later in the day 

I wonder if they'll make up 

And be in love again 

Photos 

I can see my mum in his arms 

A smile upon her face 

I never thought they'd ever make up 

And be in love again
