The Old Woman |
Angel, answer my prayer |
Answer my prayer tonight |
Tell me if anyone cares |
If I do what I might |
Angel, answer my prayer |
And tell me if anyone else |
Knows how much I am scared |
That I might murder myself |
Who will take care of my plants? |
Maybe Martha will take care of them |
She called on Mother’s Day and has a philodendron and a few ferns |
They look terrible though, just like her house |
She never dusts her leaves |
What about Berta? |
She’s been married three times, how can she possibly take care of four kids? |
They’ll die — I just know these bugs will get them |
Aphids — you have to watch for them all the time, they don’t care |
Sent Teddy seven fifty for his birthday last week, no thank-you note |
It’s all Martha’s fault |
She’s not raising those children right |
How long would it be until they noticed? |
A week, two weeks, maybe months |
I know why, I know why they ignore me |
Martha pretends that she doesn’t care anymore but I know better |
And she’s poisoned Berta against me too! |
He was old and could barely hop around |
And Mark would sure never have done it |
Poor thing |
Somebody had to do it |
Somebody had to |
