The bacon she bought
Fills the kitchen
With the smell of a morning
Done well.
But she's already left -
She drives three hours
Every day
To prove her career
Is worth pursuing
He's at home
Wondering if one day
She'll be bringing home the bacon
While he's keeping the house clean
And bringing up the children
Stocking cupboards with medicine
Looking after daily chores
Running back and forth
While she's bringing home the bacon,
She'll be bringing home the bacon.

The bacon she bought
Fills the kitchen
With the smell of a morning
Done well.
But she's already left -
She drives three hours
Every day
To prove her career
Is worth pursuing
He's at home
Wondering if one day
She'll be bringing home the bacon
While he's keeping the house clean
And bringing up the children
Stocking cupboards with medicine
Looking after daily chores
Running back and forth
While she's bringing home the bacon,
She'll be bringing home the bacon.
