Four Dogs Two Kids and One Lover
Four dogs two kids and one lover
Too hard to balance my calendar
When I just need some time to myself, take a breath and eat lunch
This one needs to go here
And the other there
And then my lover says where’s my kiss dear?
How to fit it all in?
And still keep a grin
And also make everyone feel like they win
The kids they need watching
The dogs they need walking
And don’t ask me what my lover is talking
Soccer mom is on the go
Now basketball we have to show
And when is your concert?, oh no!
Am I double booked by accident?
Which dog goes to the vet?
And I haven’t even made dinner yet!
Scraped knees they need mending
Wounded feelings need tending
How am I losing every rummy hand? I need to pay attention
My car’s oil needs changing
And then there’s the recycling
Help me out I ask my lover, please
The floor it needs washing
And the boys need a talking
When can I get time for a mile walk in?
My job is demanding
But gives me change to buy candy
How did I ever think I could work full time and still plan things
My lover he’s patient and very understanding
He has to be because of all the chaos we’re withstanding
But we’re in this together and united we’re standing
I tell him he’s a cutie whenever I can
He says I’m beautiful and then mentions my cans
We keep it going, still in love we hold hands
Life has its crazies
Sometimes even lazies
Each precious moment we try encapsulating
The wild times they end
The kids leave the den
And what’s left are the memories we made with our clan
I wouldn’t trade this for anything different
So much we lived through I wouldn’t miss it
Even though a few times I did say I need just 5 minutes
