Rouge
She's always up before dawn
To put his coffee on
And iron his shirt to his liking
She takes a sigh of relief
The minute he leaves
Cause that's when she gets peace and quiet
To forget the night before
When he left her on the floor lonely and crying
She's wearing rouge
And it ain't by choice
Lately, it seems
That she can't avoid
Him painting it on
A blush colored bruise
Can't wash it off
She's wearing rouge
He always tries to make up
For the work that he does
With roses of red on the counter
The same shade as her cheek
And by this time next week
He'll be needing to buy her more flowers
Cause she's wearing rouge
And it ain't by choice
Lately, it seems
That she can't avoid
Him painting it on
A blush colored bruise
Can't wash it off
She's wearing rouge
Tonight she'll cover up
Try to hide the truth
The powder ain't enough
But it'll have to do
She's wearing rouge
And worn it for years
Like the ring on her hand
It ain't goin nowhere
Cause she's wearing rouge
And it ain't by choice
Lately, it seems
That she can't avoid
Him painting it on
A blush colored bruise
Can't wash it off
She's wearing rouge
To put his coffee on
And iron his shirt to his liking
She takes a sigh of relief
The minute he leaves
Cause that's when she gets peace and quiet
To forget the night before
When he left her on the floor lonely and crying
She's wearing rouge
And it ain't by choice
Lately, it seems
That she can't avoid
Him painting it on
A blush colored bruise
Can't wash it off
She's wearing rouge
He always tries to make up
For the work that he does
With roses of red on the counter
The same shade as her cheek
And by this time next week
He'll be needing to buy her more flowers
Cause she's wearing rouge
And it ain't by choice
Lately, it seems
That she can't avoid
Him painting it on
A blush colored bruise
Can't wash it off
She's wearing rouge
Tonight she'll cover up
Try to hide the truth
The powder ain't enough
But it'll have to do
She's wearing rouge
And worn it for years
Like the ring on her hand
It ain't goin nowhere
Cause she's wearing rouge
And it ain't by choice
Lately, it seems
That she can't avoid
Him painting it on
A blush colored bruise
Can't wash it off
She's wearing rouge
