Lyrics
A Housewife' lament
Written by: Pete Hawkes
Sometimes its hectic
I cant see it through
these kids of mine
they'll grow up fine
its my job to see they do
But this job is hectic and this jobs full time
And I give my all, get nothing back, whats the point in trying
What I could have done
What I could have been
No-one seems to understand
How much I've sacrificed Of me
soon they'll be grown up
soon i'll be free
cos I know my kids so well
and I hardly know me
(CHORUS)
so i've made up my mind
to lose these old blues
your never to old to be starting anew
and i'm scared of the warmth i'm leaving behind
I'm out on my own for the very first,
very first time
cos you never understood, you wont undersatnd
why I had to pack my bags and make my own stand
but I love my children, and i've done them right
and after all these years its time for me to find my own life
and its great I admit
to be starting again
to feel the new textures
and to dance in the rain
and if you tried of listened, i'd be to blame
but you used me for you, so I dont feel ashamed....
(CHORUS)
that i've
made up my mind
to lose these old blues
your never to old to be starting anew
and i'm scared of the warmth i'm leaving behind
I'm out on my own for the very first,
very first time
