Homemaker

Dishes won't do themselves

Dust upon the shelves

And time's impossible to find

Is anybody gonna help

Tidy up these toys

Or the clutter in my mind

If all you wanna do is run

I won't tell anyone

Your secret fantasy

If all you wanna do is cry

I won't even ask why

I'll just hold the box of tissues for you

Homemaker, it's okay

If today the only thing you make

Is you make it through the day

Couple of kids to raise

Never get any praise

Just a sideways glance

I might have screwed it up today

Didn't mean for it to go that way

Another day's another chance

If all you wanna do is hide

And lock yourself inside the bathroom

I will guard you

Protect and misdirect

The ones out searching for you

Just until you can catch your breath

Homemaker, it's okay

If today the only thing you make

Is you make it through the day

Butterfly kisses and eyelash wishes

I know they say it goes so fast

They say enjoy it while it lasts

But homemaker, it's okay

If today the only thing you make

If today the only thing you make

Is you make it through the day

Dishes won't do themselves

Dust upon the shelves

And time's impossible to find
