The Hopeless Housewife |
Get out of your 1950's fantasy |
Your face shines with misery, transparently |
Spew out that sobering, half-assed victim rhetoric |
Make 'em all squirm while they chew on it |
It’s a secret handshake and a passing wink of the eye |
As the witches bridge club weekly meets to pen the tail on the sly |
But they never ask «why, oh why |
Don’t we raise our voices to the sky?» |
Instead we’re mute and fawn, just waiting to die |
Like some kind of hopeless housewife |
But you can change while you’re alive |
And let 'em all know at least you tried to kill the demons inside |
Oh me, oh my (x4) |
Damn your transcendental paralysis |
We can work together and make sense of this |
Don’t be so sure you can chuck it all away |
You’ve got to proceed, no matter how bad you want to stay |
It’s a natural cause and a comfort zone there in your head |
And the world turns away as you tap the snooze button in bed |
But nobody can hear a word you said |
Your history was never read |
Instead you’re mute and fawn just waiting to die |
Like some kind of hopeless housewife |
But you can change while you’re alive |
And let 'em all know at least you tried to kill the demons inside |
Oh me, oh my (x4) |
