Homemaker

A smiling secret
Right where you left it last
Yours truly stayed
Stuck around like vines on stone
Call it stubbornness or fantasy

I learnt to be a handyman
So entropy wouldn't eat away at your house
I built a white picket fence
Left your ancestors their offerings
Fought the pests off the flower patch
Kept the insects off of your favourite dress

Ooh, it's what I do
I tend the hearth
A homemaker

Ooh, it's all I do
I keep the fire
A homemaker

Should the day come
Lil birds will sing the news
You were spotted making your way home from the wars
Weary, feverish, mute, purple-bruised
I'll run a bath and wash your back
Stitch the open wounds no questions asked
Rinse the hurt, dry your hair
Feed you cold green grapes straight off the branch

Ooh, it's what I do
I tend the hearth
A homemaker

Ooh, it's all I'm good for
Can't help myself
A homemaker
Through and through
