One Less Thing (Girly-Sound Version)
[Verse 1]
I took my dog to the vet today
He gave her a shot and put her away
And when I got home and got ready for bed
I realized what I'd done
And that's one less thing on my mind
[Verse 2]
I left the man I'm in love with behind
I moved to Chicago and told him I'd write
But now when I wake and I see the wrong face
I realize what I've done
And that's one less thing on my mind
[Bridge]
Did you think that I knew what I was doing
When I said that I had to grow up on my own for a while?
Now I'm dog-less and loveless and cold in a Midwestern winter
If I'd known what I was doing I sure as fuck wouldn't be here
Now I like to think that I like to learn from mistakes
But I've made that error in judgment one too many times
And I'm not the wiser and sure not the wealthier
I wish to God that I had've been healthier mentally
When I decided to make up my own mind
But that's one less thing that takes up my time
[Verse 3]
Well, I'm lining up six or seven good jobs
My hair's looking great and my friends are all snobs
But I don't have my man and I don't have my dog
And I don't have very much fun
And that's one less thing on my mind
