Karen Mantler - 1.04 - Breaking up

This is the fourth track of the album "My Cat Arnold", which was released in 1989.

Karen's vocals are in normal text.

The Man's vocals are in italics and indented.

In written form the interwoven texts look confusing. When you listen to the song itself it's easy to understand.
