She makes his coffee, she makes his bed
She does the laundry, she keeps him fed
When she was twenty-one
She wore her mother's lace
She said forever with a smile upon her face
She does the carpool, she PTA's
Doctors and dentists, she drives all day
When she was twenty-nine
She delivered number three
And every Christmas card
Showed a perfect family
Everything runs right on time
Years of practice and design
Spit and polish till it shines
He thinks he'll keep her
Everything is so benign
Safest place you'll ever find
God forbid you'd change your mind
He thinks he'll keep her

( MUSIC BREAK )

She packs his suitcase
She sits and waits
With no expression upon her face
When she was thirty-six
She met him at the door
She said, "I'm sorry
I don't love you anymore
Everything runs right on time
Years of practice and design
Spit and polish till it shines
He thinks he'll keep her
Everything is so benign
Safest place you'll ever find
God forbid you'd change your mind
He thinks he'll keep her

( MUSIC BREAK )

For fifteen years she had a job
And not one raise in pay
Now she's in the typing pool
At minimum wage
Everything runs right on time
Years of practice and design
Spit and polish till it shines
He thinks he'll keep her
Everything is so benign
Safest place you'll ever find
At least until you change your mind
He thinks he'll keep her
