In the morning, when from slumber you awake You find me sleeping like a baby by your side Get up, get out to work 'cause there are cakes that must be baked But if there's things that I must do, I'd sooner let them slide (chorus) And you step out when I step in It is a dance that is bizarre, it is a dance that's wearing thin And you step in, and I step out We can't find the time for talking Seems we find the time to shout And late at night when I come fumbling for my keys The house is dark and all is quiet Get into bed, it is so hard for me to please you Barely hours away from work and you're so tired -chorus- Some people pray for rain Some people pray for holidays Some people pray for money without swelter But we just prayed for two shifts at the same end of the day And a life that is not quite so helter-skelter
