(Kate the Housewife)



All I am is just a housewife

Nothing special, nothing great

What I do is kinda boring

If you'd rather, it can wait

All I am is someone's mother

All I am is someone's wife

All of which seems unimportant

All it is is

Just my life



Do the laundry, wash the dishes

Take the dog out, clean the house

Shop for groceries, look for specials

God it sounds so, Mickey Mouse

Drop the kids off, pick the shirts up

Try to lose weight, try again

Keep the troops fed, pick their things up

Lose your patience, count to ten



(2..3..4..5..6..7..8..9..10

4..5..6..7..8..9..)



All I am is just a housewife

Just a housewife, nothing great

What I do is "out of fashion"

What I feel is out of date

All I am is someone's mother

Right away I'm not too bright

What I do is unfulfulling

So the T.V. talk-shows tell me every night



I don't mean to complain at all

But they make you feel like you're two feet tall

When you're just a wife

(Just a housewife)

All they see are the pots and pans

And the Pepsi cans of a person's life

(My life)

You're a "whiz" if you go to work

But you're just a jerk if you say you won't

(Just a housewife)

People say that they think it's fine

If the choice is mine

But you know they don't

What I do, what I choose to do

May be dumb to you

But it's not to me

Is it dumb that they need me there?

Is it dumb to care?

Cause I do, you see

And I mean, Did ya ever think,

Really stop and think

What a job it was-

Doing all the things

That a housewife does?



I'm afraid it's unimpressive

(All I am is someone's mother

nothing special)

What I do is

(What I do is)

Unexciting

(Kinda dull)

Take the kids here,

Take the kids there

("Mommy..."

I don't mean to complain at all

(All I am is...

All I am is...)

Busy, busy...

(Everyday

All I am is...)

Like my mother...

(All I am is...)

Just a housewife
