But divorces are caused by that little roll and the paper that goes on it. A wife’s number one complaint and the reason she screams and shouts Is her husband’s won’t refill the roll once the paper has run out. And it drives a wife crazy, oh how she’ll complain and gripe and grouse When her husband doesn’t seem to care if there’s any paper in the house. If there is an ample supply of paper you’d think this would make her feel great Not true...for she must also win the great toilet paper debate.
