OK, while things are still cooking here, this is what the women put together when they're fed up with particular men. I'm Gonna Shove You on the Back Burner of My Heart (By Edith Doughty, Dahlov Ipcar and Sheila Ritter, one Sunday morning in the kitchen, 1977) Chorus: I'm gonna shove you on the back burner, baby, and turn the flame way down;(3X) I'm gonna shove you on the back burner, baby, and let you simmer down. You came on pretty strong, darlin', but our love's been watered down; If you don't start behavin', baby, I'm gonna throw you to the hounds. My dishes are all washed up, baby; I'm sweeping my kitchen clean; Don't need no man around these parts when he's treatin' me so mean. You've been a good piece of meat, baby, but now you're goin' bad; What I need is more spice in my life; it's what I always had. You've dumped on me long enough, dumplin'; you don't smell good to me no more; I'm gonna dump you in the garbage can and throw you out the door. You got me all stirred up, baby; so just sit there and stew; You're an OK meat and potatoes man but I think I'm through with you. Got just enough chili in my cupboard to spice another pot; When I get that cooked up, baby, it'll be good and hot.
