Too much on my plate

A couple caught up in the trivial routines of their everyday chores
When a subtle thought snuck in on him
Like a dream at the grocery store

And he said "Hey babe, shouldn't we pack a suitcase and get away?"
Her only response is just
"Sorry babe, I'm too busy every day
With everything so shouldn't we stay?"

"I got too much on my plate"
It's just a phrase that they're too used to say
Instead of taking a break or a trip by the lake they just say

"Yeah, I got too much on my plate"
Maybe that phrase should be rearranged
And then be replaced, substituted and exchanged for a change

A couple caught up in the trivial routines behind their bedroom door
When a subtle need snuck in underneath their sheets
A sudden urge to explore

And she said
"Hey babe, shouldn't we make a sex tape, get carried away?"
His only response is just
"Sorry babe, got too much of a headache
And an early shift so shouldn't we wait?"

"I got too much on my plate"
It's just a phrase that they're too used to say
Instead of taking a break or a trip by the lake they just say

"Yeah, I got too much on my plate"
Maybe that phrase should be rearranged
And then be replaced, substituted and exchanged for a change

There will always be errands to run
There will always be something that needs to be done
There will always be decisions to make
And they are making the bed instead of making love in it

"Yeah, I got too much on my plate"
Minimum wage but there's still bills to pay
Too many full time jobs they need to take care of everyday

"Yeah, I got too much on my plate"
"Yeah, I got too much on my plate"
"I got too much on my plate"
"I got too much on my plate"
