[Quote from "Easy Does It"]
And, any way you look at it, women's work is not for sissies.
[Verse 1]
The constant worry
The longer I sit
I question whether it's all worth it
My dignity is
Falling to bits
I never know just how to save this
A gin and tonic, reading "Hooked on Phonics"
A couple interviews, you know that I'm on it
She's been up for countless nights I know
My anxiety has its own anxiety
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't worry, love
I'll get it all handled when
Push comes to shove
We'll figure it out by then
[Chorus]
What can I do
Before we lose
Everything we've got?
All the timing's off
We're sinking in
And I have been
Nothing but a flaw
Forgive me, my love
You have done enough
[Verse 2]
Looking for answers
But they're bottled up
Under the cap of this '96 proof
My enemy is
My aching head
That lies sleepless at night in this fucking bed
[Bridge]
(You're listening to 101.5 The Jamz
We're gonna keep it running all night with no commercial breaks
I'm your host Scary Screamer Guy
This next song goes out to all the baby mamas)
The late nights come way too early
The late nights come way too early
I know she's just barely coping
God knows, it only gets worse
Too slow, our pockets are cursed
I've fallen down enough times
My luck is all out of line
[Pre-Chorus]
Embarrassment
It's wearing thin
My mind is saying "slow it down"
I'm losing it
My skin's not thick
I've got to take control somehow
[Chorus]
What can I do
Before we lose
Everything we've got?
All the timing's off
We're sinking in
And I have been
Nothing but a flaw
Forgive me, my love
[Verse 3]
You've done enough
So out of touch
We're falling apart at the seams
[Verse 4]
I'm trying to pick it up before it's all over
Wish I could reach down find a four leaf clover
I need something to give me motivation
Kids tucked, off to inebriation
Pulling strings, but nothing seems to cling
Comes home she wants an explanation
Empty bottles and pills to keep the thoughts down
Blank stare no words she's walking out now
Clutching on for my life I'm wondering how
This got outta hand, I'll find a way out
Please stay oh honey I know
Times are tough but please don't go
Don't leave me out on my own
Our love was set in stone
You've given me no other option
I've made my final decision
Cold steel it's pressed on my temple
I know its about time I let go
