The Change

She's married to him now, and so
She doesn't think it worth her while
To put herself out much to show
Her charming ways or pleasant smile.
She doesn't dress to please him now,
Nor try to gratify each whim;
She's married to him anyhow,
There is no need to fuss for him.
Time was she always looked her best
And did her best to please him, too;
Her voice was of the cheeriest,
Her whimperings were very few.
She doesn't dress for him today,
His likes she pays but little heed to,
It makes no difference, anyway,
She's married, and she doesn't need to.
