Life Begins in Suburbia

by deminlloyd

Domestic life, wouldn’t it be nice, wine in hand, topped with ice. Your hair shining ginger in the sun, at the BBQ, loading sausages in buns as our son screams and trips over. Twice! On Thursday we lounge and eat egg-fried rice, all we do is laugh and you say: 'This is Paradise.' Then we shout over cake, it’s overdone! Domestic life. You see my tears and hug me, feels nice. You’re still the man with the best advice. So take me to Harvester, just for fun, then we talk in funny voices to our sweet son. Let’s drink more wine we bought half price. Domestic life.
