I sat there looking ugly
Looking ugly and mean
I knew what you were saying
You were saying to me
Baby's got some new rules
Baby, said she's had it with me
It seems a shame to waste your time on me
It seems a lot to waste your time for me
Left me to love
What it's doing to me
There's a lot of honey in this world
Baby, this honey's for me
You've got to do what you do
Do it with me
It seems a shame you waste your time for me
Left me to love
What it's doing to me
Knocked silly
Knocked flat
Sideways down
These things they pick you up
And they turn you around
Say your piece
Say you're sweet for me
It's all the same to share the pain with me
It's all the same, save the shame for me
Left me to love
What it's doing to me
Baby's got some new rules
Baby said she's had it with me
There's a fly in the honey
Baby's got a baby with me
That's a part
That's a part of me
Left me to love
What it's doing to me
Left me to love
What it's doing to me
What about me?
What about me?

I think this one could be just as much about a divorce as pregnancy. The narrator could be a husband, being left by his wife, and she takes the children with her, and he can't do anything but stand back and watch them leave him. It's possible that his wife just doesn't get him, or understand him, because he's different ("that's a part of me"). The wife can't go on with the pain and the relationship, because she's bored and their love is dead ("it's all the same, share the pain with me", "waste your time on me").
