lyrics

I knew what you want before you find something
let me tell you what it means

knocking off airs / tables and chairs / wasn't it a dream?
not on your life / I'm not your wife / get off my leg and plead
you act so tough / all man-sized and stuff / you lie like a disease
I know you want / to figure it out / to live a lifetime of ease

he did love your family
what garment did I wear?
whose arm did he adorn?
My life has been fair
funny how memory clouds the passage of time

putting on airs / people and stares / wasn't it a dream?
Not on your life / i'm not your wife /get on all fours and scream
you act so wise / jewelry and ties/ you lick like a disease
I know you want / to figure it out / to live a lifetime of ease

you were nobody's mother to me
something sounded like geese
somewhere west of the magins
got me thinking the affinity
of your friends is no sin to judge
and no matter what I say I love you
