Fifty More Ways to Leave Your Lover

 

Does the song “Fifty Ways to Leave Your Lover” annoy you? Good. There’s nothing like hate to get the creative juices flowing. Back in 1975, maybe it was edgy to hint that you were such a lover you needed to plan 50 escapes from your latest (no doubt cis-het) tryst. But these days? Bah. Much more creativity is required to extricate oneself from postmodern affairs of the heart. So…

Here are just a few new reasons for leaving your lover. Can you top them?

  • ‘Cuz I’m wearing your girdle, Myrtle
  • It’s because I’m a man, Stan
  • I’m in love with your mom, Tom
  • Interspecies romance, Vance
  • ‘Cuz you voted for Trump, chump
  • ‘Cuz you said, “I’m With Her,” cur
  • You don’t wanna be poly, Mollie
  • ‘Cuz I got a waifu, boo
  • Gender bend when I want to
  • It’s no longer taboo, Sue

How’d you set yourself free?

    The problem is all inside your head, she said to me
    The answer is easy if you think psychotically
    I’d like to show you how to get away scot-free
    There must be, fifty ways to off your lover

    You know it’s really not my habit to sound dire
    furthermore I hope the cops won’t come to think that I’ve conspired
    But I’ll repeat myself, in the hopes that I’ll inspire
    There must be, fifty ways to off your lover, fifty ways to off your lover

    Just stab her in the back, Jack; smash her brain pan, Stan
    Use a pick-ax, Max; just listen to me
    Shoot a blunderbuss, Gus; don’t need to discuss much
    Just dose up her tea, Lee; and get yourself free

    You know it grieves me so to see you in distress
    I wish there was something I could do to help you clean this mess
    I said, I appreciate that, and would you please explain about the fifty ways

    She said that with one corpse that she was ready for a break
    And she believed that in the morning she might once again partake
    Then she garroted me, and I realized, this was prob’ly a mistake
    There must be, fifty ways to off your lover, fifty ways to off your lover

    Just stab her in the back, Jack; smash her brain pan, Stan
    Use a pick-ax, Max; just listen to me
    Shoot a blunderbuss, Gus; don’t need to discuss much
    Just dose up her tea, Lee; and get yourself free

    I figure the Twins have to know other twins, so he could hook me up.  Or triplets.  That would be satisfying.

    Yes of course.  They sometimes weaken but that was not my point.

    Oh, either. 

    I figured a sufficiently off-putting explanation to one’s paramour would break things off and permit escape.
