Fuzzy Slippers

I wipe the baby's chin with my college diploma
And wonder how did I ever get here?
I take the gold record off the wall
From nineteen eighty three
Break open the plexiglass
And declare an emergency

I always wanted the bright lights
I always wanted to play
I only wanted to sing with Grammy
So how did I get this way

I must have been mistaken
I must have been confused
I'm the queen of my kitchen late at night
Singin the dishwasher blues

Did I walk all this way in my fuzzy slippers
Did I walk all this way in my fuzzy slippers
Did I walk all this way in my fuzzy slippers
Did I walk all this way

I don't take nothin' for granted
I've got a roof over my head
A healthy husband to make me happy
And four kids tucked in bed

But I'm a long way from Nashville
And this ain't Carnegie Hall
No matter what I keep tellin' myself
I haven't got far to fall

Did I walk all this way in my fuzzy slippers
Did I walk all this way in my fuzzy slippers
Did I walk all this way in my fuzzy slippers
Did I walk all this way

EAT YOUR DAMN SPAGHETTI


By: Joy Rose

Come now my children -- gather around
Hush now, my darlings -- don't make a sound
Your momma loves you, she loves you
Now what do you say --
(Spoken) well thanks would be nice!
But no, no, no,
I've been standing in the kitchen since
A quarter to noon
"Eat your damn spaghetti or leave the room"

        Instrumental

You must have been born with a silver spoon
"Eat your damn spaghetti or leave the room"


Watch out!  Stand back! 
Here she comes! Its a mom attack
Spatula anxiety
Virtual sobriety
Responsible insanity
We tear our hair
Because we care
But today's the day we crack

No, no, no
I've been standing in the kitchen since
A quarter to noon
"Eat your damn spaghetti or leave the room"

        Instrumental

You must have been born with a silver spoon
"Eat your damn spaghetti or leave the room"


Pee Alone By: Joy Rose

The company I’m keeping
The company I keep
Overwhelms my senses
With an overwhleming need.
You know that life is truly funny
You know that God must be a man
To put a woman thru the things
That only women understand
I give in to my body
I give in to my soul
I give into the universe
I give up all control
Everyone wants something
Something all the time
My needs are simply simple
Succintly defined
I just wanna read the paper
I just wanna talk on the phone
I just wanna take a shower
And I only want to pee alone
