| When I say «wife» |
| It’s 'cause I can’t find another word |
| For the way we be |
| But «wife» sounds like your mortgage, hm |
| «Wife» sounds like laundry |
| When I say «wife» |
| It’s 'cause I can’t find another word |
| For the way we are |
| But «wife» sounds like your mortgage |
| And sounds like the family car |
| Well, the tax form comes and I fill out «married» |
| 'Cause I know what they’re lookin' for |
| But I’m tellin' you that I’m just a person |
| Same as I was before |
| When I say «wife» |
| It’s 'cause if you said «lover» every day |
| You’re gonna begin to gag |
| But wife sounds like your mortgage |
| Sounds like the laundry bag |
| Well, the tax form comes, fill out «married» |
| A technicality |
| But I’m tellin' you that I’m not married |
| I’m not single, I’m still me |
| I say «wife» |
| Because it stops all talk right away |
| About the way we be |
| But «wife» sounds like your mortgage |
| And «wife» sounds like laundry |
