The harder I struggle

The tighter you grip

But don't need to tell you

That's the way that I want it

I'm easy to follow

You're easy to spot

I bet I can shake you off

But I gotta wanna do it



What good are the times

That I catch you alone?

It took an eternity and

I forgot what I wanted

What good are the times

That I take you to task?

You get me distracted

And I forget that I'm mad



I'm up on the counter

You're down on the floor

The kitchen is dirty

Pots and pans are flying

No food in the cupboard

A knock at the door

Let's give it a rest now

Buy a beer at the corner store



I'm going to bed now dear

But you still want more

And every single word you say

I've heard before

Oh you are an angel

When you're in recline

And like an anxious fist

My lullabye works fine



Lullabye and good night

Ain't that a great song?

You're an angel in recline

Please go to bed dear

Please go to bed dear please
