From the recording Afternoon in the Park (Cast Recording)
Lyrics
The beds are done, the lunches made
Tuna sandwiches are really great!
Washed the dishes, mopped the floor
When I get back, I'll do my chores!
Washer is going, piled high is the laundry,
How you manage is always a quandary
The grocery list, the bank and the cleaners,
I'll make dinner: sauerkraut, beans and wieners!
Now that I’m set, better get to work
Gotta be on time, I’m the managing clerk
Been up since dawn, where has the time gone?
I need gas in the car, at least the station’s not far!
Phew! That was hard, what a day it's been
With the sale going on, what a hectic scene
I'll fold the towels, you match the socks
I've been thinking about our morning talks
Pick up the messages, open the mail,
Oh look! Here’s a flyer, it’s a one-day sale!
I gotta go now, but I'll be back soon,
And we'll eat dinner under a romantic moon!
Who said Women’s Lib was a gift and a treasure,
Another pair of hands, now that would be a pleasure!
No time to think, just time to do,
No doubt, we need a holiday too!
