One's On The Way
They say to have her hair done lift life all the way to france
and Jackie seen in a disco tech doin' a brand new dance
and the whitehouse social season should be glittering and gay,
but here in topeka the rain is a fallin', the facet is a drippin' and the kids are a ballin', one of them is a toddlin' and one is a crawlin' and one's on the way.
I'm glad that rachell welts just signed a million dollar pact
and Debbies out in Vegas workin' out a brand new act,
while the tv's showin' newly weds, a real fine game to play,
but here in topeka the screen door's a bangin', the coffees boillin' over, and the morse needs a hangin', one wants a cookie and one wants a changin' and ones on the way,
"Now what was I doin'?
Jimmy get away from there!
Darn there goes the phone.
"Hello honey, what's that you say?
You're bringing a few old army buddies home?!
Your callin' from a bar?!" Get away from there! "
No, not you honey.
I was talkin' to the baby.
Wait a minute honey, the doorbell.
"Honey, could you stop at the market and...
Hello?
Hello?
Well i'll be..."
The girls in new york city they all march for womens lived
and better homes and gardens shows a modern way to live
and the pill may change the world tomorrow, but mean while today
here in topeka the flies are a buzzin', the dog is a barkin' and the floor needs a scrubbin', one needs a spankin' and one needs a huggin', Lord...
Ones on the way .
"Oh, gee .
I hope it ain't twins again ."
