I woke up this morning br With another man's child drooling on my arm br For her, for her br Stumbling out of bed after a hard night br Of chasing monsters and bringing water br Cutting my foot on legos br For her, for her br Fishing my razor out of a wastebasket br Full of used tampons and baby wipes br Getting in a van with an empty gas tank br Filling it up again br Making me late again br For her, for her br Avoiding that fine receptionist br Who grabbed my crotch last month br I think that's the last time br I'd been touched br Smiling at the boss' daily spiel br Keeping silent keeping still br For her, for her br Driving home wringing wet br In a van with no air br That could've been repaired br But ordered blinds instead br For her, for her br Inching home with traffic slow as a snail br Getting the finger at least every mile br Coming in the door hearing her family sing br How I'm not doing anything br And all she did all day br Was help some hamburger br What more can I say?br br Myra Jeffersonbr br
