"What's for tea?" Is the sound I hear as they walk in the door
Always expecting it ready as they make a mess galore.
"Mum, where's my leggings  Are they washed? I need them for tonight"
"They're on the stairs in the pile of clothes where I put them last night."
"Well what have you done today? As it was your day off."
"I've cooked and cleaned and made the beds, What's a day off I scoff?"
I often think if I wasn't here that nothing would be done
No washing and no cleaning no one to fetch and run.
Maybe I will go on strike for a week or two
Who'm I kidding that's not me that's something I can't do.
I seriously will have a word with them maybe tonight
They need know things have to change to make everything right
So wish me luck keep fingers crossed let's hope that they will change
Cos if they don't this lady will a maid need to arrange.
