Neat Litle Domestic Life

You clean the bathroom and

I do the dishes

I water the lawn and you feed the fishes

What a neat little domestic life that we live

You change the light bulb and

I hold the ladder

I get the frying pan and you mix the batter

What a neat little domestic life that we live

All the lonely days are gone

Those long lonely days when

I was alone

And I felt this world was not the place

I belonged

But then I met you and now

I belongYou rake the leaves and

I start a fire

I clean out the shed and you turn on the dryer

What a neat little domestic life that we live

I brush the dog and you knit a sweater

You vacuum the rug and

I write a letter

What a neat little domestic life that we live

I clear the table and you draw the curtain

You ask if

I'm happy and

I tell you

I'm certain

That this neat little domestic life is for me
