The Hopeless Housewife

Oh me Oh my

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 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

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
