My life is dishes and coffee
Do you know what I mean?
Luckily I'll go to heaven
Knowing my kitchen is clean
How can I sing on a mountain
When there's washing to do?
No I don't want fame and fortune
I'm knitting a sweater for you
Look how my tabletops glisten
Living my mama's dream
Sorry you must be mistaken
Playgrounds and nappies and cream
But do you remember the wide open sea?
Did I surrender for dishes and coffee?
Her life is meeting a deadline
Her life is bought for a fee
Sometimes she looks out the window
Thinking she'd rather be me
