HEDONISTIC HOUSEWIFE

Well, the TV broke the other day, so I took up guitar
Because I was missing Jeopardy, I went down to a bar
Found out I could cut the mustard just as good as all them guys
And beat the hell out of them gol durn commercials

I am a hedonistic housewife can't you see it Ma?
I got the very best of your scene and I stole a lot from Pa
I spend my spare time in a honky tonk a winin' and whoopee
You see you got the right to be anybody you want to be

You and Dad sent me to college so I could learn how to write good
You can tell by this here song that I'm a writin' like I should
I'm afraid my occupation don't fit in well with your plans
But think again, Ma, the next time you do the dishes

I am a hedonistic housewife can't you see it Ma?
I got the very best of your scene and I stole a lot from Pa
I tell them I will do the cooking if someone will wash the dishes
But sometimes we don't even bother you know us: them dirty hippies

Well you wish that I had children, automatic fryin' pan
You tell me "it just don't seem right" but Ma, I'm doin' the best I can
You want to know where you went wrong but Ma, I think you did alright
I am the toast of this establishment tonight

I am a hedonistic housewife can't you see it Ma?
I got the very best of your scene and I stole a lot from Pa
I spend my spare time in a honky tonk a winin' and whoopee
You see you got the right to be anybody you want to be
