lyrics

She’s efficient she’s pleasant she’s got calculating eyes
She’s on her way up an expert in disguise
Not a hair out of place everything is organised

And her house is the same like a magazine
Her day is regimented living in her dream
She wonders what’d happen if she ever dropped her guard
If she ever had some kids who went and messed up her yard

Messed up her hair messed up her life
But it’s never gonna happen you can bet your dear life
Halleluliah to the mothers guiding with their hand
Love and courage wrapped together their eyes can understand

I wonder what’d happen if they ever lost their place
If they ever gave it up in apparent disgrace
If they ever said it wasn’t worth the trouble any more
I wonder what’d happen maybe time will tell the score

She’s efficient she’s pleasant she’s got calculating eyes
She’s on her way up a wardrobe of disguise
Not a hair out of place everything is organised
And her house is a picture it could sell a magazine

No dogs no cats no pets living in her dream
living in her dream living in her dream
