Got a new spouse she's looking good, bit off more than I should
Then Captain Reality steps in and lands a punch under your chin
Now you have no clue over where you've been
Seems like the Devil dived right in,

Got a new job it's looking great I'm in an altered state
Then Captain Reality checks in, throws me down the bin
Could have sworn things were looking up
Suddenly life's like urine in a Dixie cup,

Got a new car the other day come on Honey let's go out and play
Then Captain Reality walks in now my car looks like crumpled tin
Really thought things would change possibly rearrange
Now I think my assassin's found his range,

Got a divorce just the other day, ready for what might come my way
Then Captain Reality comes rushing in, alimony will begin
Just when I thought I had it made another commando raid
Is this what I get, don't I even get paid?

It's all Murphy's law just the same I already played this game
Then Captain Reality steps in and plunges in his Voodoo pin!
What kind of game is this life? Tell God no more strife!
Time to march into my last battle now just playing my fife,

I used to have a tall strong son loved by everyone
Then Captain Reality stepped in time to notify next of kin
My little boy my handsome son where have you been?
We bury our guilt and we bury our sin.
