she's got the whole world in her hands


Socks in pair, underwear - Hide the porn.
Hang in racks, pile stacks - Mend the forlorn.
Eagle eye underneath, what needs vacuuming.
Run the thing, dog hair cat shit oh no not in the corner again,
Open doors dirty floors to welcome every friend.

Make a call, tidy the living, make time for prayer and giving,
Open mail, recycle paper can't find tacks? can't find stapler?
Dentist appointment, vet, dog food out, hide the dirty dishes,
New toothbrushes and the box for Tooth Fairy Wishes
Control self when confronted with School Traffic Bitches.

Wash her hair, pile his books, adjust his medicine pill
Masturbate or make a date - we forgot the load to Goodwill.
Thank you notes, invitations, birthday present, sublimation
Each and every stimulation calls for a new relation
( mind their sleep and meals for good education )

Erection? Make time later, no there is no alligator
In the sink or the loo, yes your brother lied to you ( IAN! )
Clean the toilet which your brother cannot pee in.
Teach good manners, keep my own,
I refuse to answer the telephone: One half hour to be alone.

Mental note to plan summer, babysitters call the plumber
Haircut mole check eyeglasses dental dam? No that wasn't the plan.
What the hell is that exam?
Read the paper, eat protein, take the magic magic bean
mind your face should you look mean
Keep one hand hard and ready to clean.

Order books, thank the teacher, kill the lice take advice
throw the husband in the tub ask him for a foot rub.
Wash the pillows and linens on hot thank God for what you've got
lock the doors ( check again ) turn off air, sick to stomach again
Facebook, blog, goodnite, to bed. The End.
