It's 9:02 and overcast
the laundry's in
the kitten's bad
when no sun comes
don't feel like day
don't feel like day
my bones a ache
and I got lists
and bills to pay
the floors need sweep
the tub needs scrub
the kitten knocks a pitcher down
a break a plate
a break a bone
a brush the hair
a clean window
my feet too hurt
no walk today
but clean them floors
a heave-ho-hey!
make soup a pot
pick beans from stones
and lie like dead
when all it's done.
