Forced Love

Forced love and laundry without any pay
The sweat and a promise of another long day
They find you in the kitchen with you know who
But Mr. Klean is innocent and you're the fool
Love is sacred yet laundry your life
Welcome to the world of being a wife

WHY DON'T THEY LISTEN WHY DON'T THEY UNDERSTAND
THIS IS MY WORLD AND THIS IS WHO I AM
THEY NEVER WANT THIS BECAUSE THEY ALWAYS WANT THAT
THEY ONLY TAKE THINGS AND THEY NEVER GIVE BACK
WON'T YOU LISTEN TO REASON WON'T YOU UNDERSTAND
THIS IS MY WORLD

Memos and meetings don't cut my pay
I've got a BMW and bills to pay
I don't know my kid and I don't know my wife
I give them Levi's and flowers and I call it a life
I'm a corporate machine I just can't stop
Welcome to the world of moving to the top

Crayons and pencils are tools of the trade
According to teachers I never made the grade
My father is in meetings, my mother is a slave
They yell at me for being part of a wave
I cry tough for love, I'm stoned and wild
Welcome to the world of being a child

Now these people don't seem to care
About a family in disrepair
Just free the woman, send the father home
Hold your child so they don't cry alone
Don't create a family made of discontent
and welcome to a world where love contends
